Was KGB spy Blunt traitor of Arnhem?

TRAITOR Anthony Blunt could have passed secrets to the Nazis that led to the deaths of thousands of Allied troops, it has been claimed.

Blunt - already known to have worked for the Soviets as part of the Cambridge Five spy ring - was the spook codenamed Josephine whose identity has never been revealed, according to a new book.

Josephine is blamed for leaking details of Operation Market Garden - a plan for Allied forces to push into Germany in 1944 via a bridgehead in Holland.
