If you’re a James Bond fan, you’ve watched the opening scene in Goldfinger … where Bond emerges from the water in a wetsuit and after a quick fight and rigging an explosion … he peels off the wet suit, revealing a dry tuxedo … and lights himself a cigarette!
In November 1941, Peter Tazelaar (a Dutch agent working for the Secret Service) plunged into the waters off the Dutch coast. His mission – to infiltrate a Nazi-occupied casino and free two captured agents!
Stealthily, Tazelaar swam to the docks. He discarded his specially designed scuba suit and, (just like in the movie) … stood there, dry as a bone, in a tuxedo of his own!
He removed a flask from his suit jacket and doused himself in cognac.
Pretending to be drunk … Peter stumbled past the Nazi guards, entered the casino, tracked down the agents … and completed his mission!
