Other indications show that especially for the work of the Czechs in the Protectorate itself, especially the "Active Resistance Group" of the "Czech Secret Organization", the brigade generals Sergej I n g r and v i e s t have the central leadership. They are subordinated to Colonel M or r a v e c, who holds the connection with the British Supreme Command. All three are located in London.
