    When World War II was declared in 1939, it had a negative effect on the people mostly in Europe 

    If you know a lot about World War II, then chances are you've heard the story of Juan Pujol García.

    Also known by the code name "Garbo," this man pretended to be a double agent for Germany, but he kept the country misinformed about many Allied operations. Most notably, he played a key role in deceiving Germans about the location and time of the Normandy invasion, or "D-Day," which began the liberation of northwestern Europe from Nazi control.
    But did you know that his wife almost completely blew his cover, which could have led to a German victory?

    During WWII, Garbo wanted to help Britain spy on Germany, and approached the British Embassy three times. They made it clear that they weren't interested in working with him, so on his own, he pretended to be a pro-Nazi Spanish government official who was spying on England on Germany's behalf.



    The couple and their child were then moved to England so Garbo could work for Military Intelligence, Section 5 (MI5), but things began turning sour. Garbo spent most of his time with his case handler, Tomás Harris, and Araceli became lonely and homesick.

    The family didn't speak English and she wasn't allowed to associate with anyone from the Spanish community in London because they were believed to be pro-Germany. She also wasn't included in any of MI5's operations, and quickly became fed up with her situation. During dinner one night, she wildly told Harris that she was planning to blackmail the Germans, risking all of their work.
