One Martin Quigley retained his cover in Ireland, commercial work on behalf of the American film industry during his stay in 1943. His job was to check on the beliefs that existed abroad about Irish neutrality and to corroborate or reject what previous agents had found.

Far from being pro-German the Irish Govt tacitlys supported the allied position while finding it politic to maintain the semblance of neutrality.
