Roger Landes
{
Roger Arthur Landes, LdH CdeG MC & Bar (16 December 1916 – 16 July 2008), code named Stanislas and Aristide, was an agent of the United Kingdom's clandestine Special Operations Executive (SOE) organization during World War II in France. The purpose of SOE was to conduct espionage, sabotage, and reconnaissance in countries occupied by the Axis powers, especially Nazi Germany. SOE agents allied themselves with resistance groups and supplied them with weapons and equipment parachuted in from England. Landes was a wireless operator for the Scientist network in the Bordeaux region of France, and later became the "organiser" (leader) of the Actor network in the same region. After the liberation from German occupation of France in 1944, he joined Force 136 to subvert the Japanese occupation of Malaya.
Landes is best known for his assassination of double agent André Grandclément and Grandclément's wife. He was an effective agent for the SOE, organizing and arming the French Resistance in southwestern France, and evading capture by the German occupiers. He is described by a biographer as a "cautious secret agent with an uncanny ability to vanish into the crowd."
