It might be an idea to briefly mention the expression "5th Column". I did know at one time which war engendered this, but it's slipped my mind. -- Tarquin
- I'm not so sure, but I remember something about Spain and a Madrid's siege: there should have been 4 columns outside and a 5th one inside the town in which some false soldiers had infiltrated. Was it Spanish civil war (36-39)? --Gianfranco
I did a google, and what I've found says the same. There's also a bizarre tale of freemasons on the same page... -- user:Tarquin
