Detailed explanation-1: -It may have been around this time that Dahl was recruited as an undercover agent by the British Security Coordination (BSC), a covert espionage network established in the spring of 1940 by Britain’s MI6 intelligence service to spy on its greatest ally-the United States.
Detailed explanation-2: -His record of five aerial victories, qualifying him as a flying ace, has been confirmed by post-war research and cross-referenced in Axis records. It is most likely that he scored more than those victories during 20 April 1941, when 22 German aircraft were shot down.
Detailed explanation-3: -What was Roald Dahl’s last book? The last book Roald Dahl published before he died was Esio Trot. The year following his passing, 1991, two further completed works were published posthumously, The Minpins and The Vicar of Nibbleswicke. The latter of these appears to have been the last book he completed.
