Early in 1945 SHAEF approached UK Director Military Operations (MO1 SP) and US OSS to assemble a force of 120 parachuteable contact and reconnaissance teams "to assist existing maesures of relief for PW and after the collapse of GERMANY" - termed "Eclipse". The aim of these teams would be to: * Obtain information regarding conditions inside PW camps * Put PWs in touch with SHAEF via inserted radio sets * Facilitate liaison with other SHAEF forces approaching camps or concentrations of PW and Foreign workers. As a result of its mandate, SHAEF created, in March 1945, The Special Allied Airborne Reconnaissance Force, or SAARF. (en)
