Opis

Born on New York City's streets to a prostitute, Jeff Goss spent his first six years in an orphanage. Orphanage matrons and peers mistreated him because of his physical ugliness. He decided to make it on his own, and ran away at age six. He earned his way by working for several merchants until he joined the navy at age seventeen. He spoke and understood ten foreign languages by that time. When the Admiral discovered his language skills he promoted him to Lieutenant Commander rank as an interpreter at foreign sessions. He credited his life on the streets for his knowledge of dealing with humanity. It was not long before he was induced to join the Office of Strategic Services. He never failed a mission whether on home soil or Europe. His most dangerous assignment was to get invited to Hitler's party to obtain secret information for President Roosevelt. He was successful, and lived to tell about it. Hollywood never produced a spy movie like the story of Admiral Jeff D. Goss.
