Name

Operation N or Action N? "Operation N" Poland Germany = 133 hits, "Action N" Poland Germany = 400 hits. It seems that Action N is somewhat more popular. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 11:29, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think that a comparison of the disambiguation pages "Action" and "Operation" and of the corresponding Wiktionary entries will suggest that "Operation" is the more suitable word here. In this context, the Polish "Akcja" is a false friend to the English "action". But the best guide, as always, is actual usage by native writers. Nihil novi (talk) 08:30, 2 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How was the propaganda distributed to its target audience ?

The printed propaganda was produced at clandestine printing works in occupied Poland but how was it to have been distributed to its target audience which was located variously in Southern Germany, The Eastern (Soviet) front, Austria and Poland itself ? Did they recruit German collaborators to help and if so how did they identify reliable individuals who would have been willing (and in a position) to help ? 90.218.228.161 (talk) 20:38, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
