Back in 1979 something odd happened in the southern sub-Antarctic Indian Ocean. On September 22nd, one of the orbiting US Vela Hotel spy satellites registered a double flash indicating that an atomic bomb had detonated close to the Prince Edward Island Group, 1,176 nautical miles south of Cape Town, belonging to South Africa. The hunt was on for the South African nuclear weapons rumoured to be in existence and being tested there. In March 2010, one of the orbiting South African spy satellites picked up a flash report coming from a Sound Surveillance System (SOSUS) line of unknown origin in ...

Very few Westerners understand how far advanced South Africa was and still is in military technology. For instance, the entire US MRAP vehicle program is based on 1975 South African technology. The list is endless and superficially dealt with in the GMJ Intelligence Briefings. In Code Name Alphabet 32, I introduce the reader to yet another South African miracle of technology, the air-to-ground & surface-to-surface Mokopa anti-tank missile. The Mokopa outperforms the better-known US Hellfire in every possible way and is described in this book. It is faster, more accurate, penetrates 50% more...

In Code Name Moonlight, we take a hard look at counter-espionage and not our usual subjects, counter-terrorism and espionage. It is seldom that you find someone liking both fields, the two groups don’t usually mix well. When Angelique Dawson inherited the counter-espionage desk (like a department), she was not overly impressed. She is at heart a spy, not a counter-espionage operator. But what Angelique likes most in life, professionally wise, is to prove that a woman is as good as, if not better than, any man and when playing chess with human lives, which is the game of spymasters, she is...

Code Name Oath 19 is mainly about Special Forces diving and more specifically, “technical diving”. This is where you must decompress before coming to the surface again, usually, depending on physical fitness levels, when you are deeper than 130 feet. This is not the same as Special Forces attack diving where rebreathers are used (they don’t give out bubbles and can be used for many hours at a time). The attack divers are never deep enough to need to decompress. This is the traditional method used when sabotaging something underwater, a Special Forces speciality, like a ship or barge (...

Code Name Masemole 26 explains the suspected role played by the Society of Jesus leader (SJ); General Lorenzo Ricci, in the creation of the United States of America, aka, the Second Beast of the Book of Revelation. I, personally, rate this man as the greatest strategist of all time and yet you will find few that even know he existed or his role behind the scenes. In fact, he is denied and dishonoured by most SJ members. Yet, he still influences what is happening today. The puzzle pieces which have been lost in history are now wholly re-assembled. Evil is never alone, it always gathers mates...

It was Winston S Churchill that stood out as the statesman that understood naval power more than anyone else. In all his books, he has the same message. The navy is what keeps enemy soldiers away from the mainland. Nothing has changed, without the US Navy, mainland USA is under severe threat of not only blockade but of invasion by a foreign army, i.e. the Chinese one. The rise of the Chinese Navy and the brutally frank political analyses in this book should be worrying, they are moving in relentlessly, cutting your sea routes as explained in many GMJ Books. In Code Name Ghost we take a hard...

In Code Name Bella Dawn, we deal with money and in particular gold being used as a weapon of war. After all, South Africa has 74% of the world’s gold reserves. It is a much more interesting topic than I first realised. Like many others, I was concerned about “perpetual small wars” that only benefit the Merchants of Death and cause tremendous problems for future generations. We love history in GMJ Books and always go back in time to see what we can learn. I made a few interesting discoveries. Did you know, for instance, that when Adolf Hitler seized Czechoslovakia, he also seized their...

Code Name Green 41 deals with the interdicting of drug smuggling routes by using Special Forces and secret agents only. No police, no costly public trials, no arrests, just summary justice as it should be. Things that go “boom” at night and no one knows why, except those that are smirking in delight, shaking hands on a job well done. The question I wanted to answer is, can hard drugs be used as a weapon of war? If you somehow could flood an enemy army with drugs as was done apparently in Vietnam to the American Army, will you win the war? In more recent times we look at Afghanistan and ...

Code Name Phantom looks at security at military installations and the state of the military ordnance which are kept on these sites. There are shocking statistics highlighted in this book regarding this state of affairs for all militaries and not only in South Africa. In 2010, in South Africa, there was 78,000 tons of immediate use ordnance available, 67% of which need immediate destruction. That is 52,260 tons. In simple terms, the old ordnance may explode at any time. The problem is getting worse since they are unsafe to move. They should have already been used in exercises, shot out or ...

Code Name Celery 50 - In this book, we deal with criminal drug laboratories being used to create weapons of mass destruction in the form of biological and bacterial weapons on behalf of terrorists. Have no doubt, such weapons will be used if terrorists gets hold of them. The Tokyo Sarin gas attack, in 1994, comes to mind. A week after this book was published, the mainstream reports came out of just such laboratories being found in Africa and were destroyed. I am not surprised, it happens often that what is revealed in GMJ Books are later confirmed by the media. The books are, after all, ...

Code Name Dawn looks at finding an enemy aircraft and shooting it down when found. This is not as easy as it sounds when done in Africa where radar coverage is not good and where at least some official deniability is desired. The South African Air Force (SAAF) had a very secretive EW (Electronic Warfare) effort going on during the South African Border War. They were flying DC-4s and Skymasters, the military version of the civilian DC-4. One of these aircraft, number 6902 is to be found at the SAAF Museum at Swartkop AFB, Pretoria and on the cover of this book. Her sister, 6901, was once ...

Since the very first GMJ Novel, Code Name VFO565, was published in late 2014, I have spoken about the “Muslim Truce” which is something that is officially denied by the authorities. I stated that the new South African Government reached out to what many will call “Islamic Radicals” and offered or negotiated a deal that they will be welcomed to recuperate and be protected in this sphere but only if they behave. This is the spirit of Ubuntu. Because it is so important, you can read more about the ‘Muslim Truce” in the Intelligence Briefing available at www.georgemjames.com. From ...

Spymaster extraordinaire, Angelique Dawson, is fresh from a successful mission, Code Name Love 72. She is flying with her future husband and former Police Special Forces Company Commander, Geoffrey Foxtrot, to the secret runway in northern Mozambique close to Lake Niassa. Foxtrot, the narrator, and Angelique’s bodyguard, is trying to keep her safe and wondering what else she is up to and not explaining. It soon becomes clear that she has two teams of a rogue unit, The Assassins, whose members tried to kill her before, lined up to be trained in advanced demolitions. But typical of ...

Code Name Casselberry is about evacuating trapped citizens from hostile countries by unconventional means. In Africa, things are different than in the rest of the world and are often more confusing. A nation that seems peaceful and can be peaceful for years may explode into violence overnight. It is hard to predict such events because the signs of unrest are always there. If violence does erupt, one must act very quickly, and the usual Western way is to evacuate trapped citizens by securing an airport or airfield. Once this happens, the citizens are led onboard onto cargo planes or other ...

Code Name OST-M deals with deviousness. We show how a good man can end up working for the enemy and not even know it. The scenario is to run a red flag operation on him. You let the person working for you believe that he is working for someone else, someone he has sympathy with. Older readers will recall Sean Connery in “From Russia with Love.” In this film, the Russian female cypher clerk thinks she is working for the KGB but actually she is recruited by and is working for a criminal organisation. In another case, the FBI, before they became the “Clinton Whitewash Bureau,” ...

Since the very first GMJ Novel, Code Name VFO56, which was published in late 2014, I have written about the “Muslim Truce” which is officially denied by the authorities. Be that as it may, I stated that the new South African Government reached out to what many will call “Islamic Radicals” and offered or negotiated a deal - they will be welcomed to recuperate and be protected in this sphere but only if they behave. That is the spirit of Ubuntu, something that I explain in this book and a previous one, Code Name Wednesday 7. There simply was not a logical reason why there were so many...

Code Name Rebecca 65 touches on what many will consider to be conspiracy theories. But I am not known to write anything that I cannot substantiate. It is not my concern, nor do I care, who you choose to serve as your God. These are your private beliefs but you ought not to be lied to when you make that choice. Yet you are lied to. What I found out during my research and what is denied, is beyond belief. This is the most important GMJ Book written to date. This is the one that gives the greatest warning - that the US and UK are under Vatican control. That the leaders of the free world are ...

Code Name Devorah deals with the use of armoured fighting vehicles in unconventional warfare scenarios. During my life, I have spoken to many South African armour officers, a breed apart and to be avoided if possible. They proudly follow something between the Russian and Prussian outlook on war. The Russians see war as a science, a mathematical exercise. The Prussians see war as an art where instinct plays a large role and the commander must have a “feeling” for the battle. The South African Armour officers combined the two doctrines to fit their needs; they see logistics, by God, and ...

Code Name Pour Angelique deals with the consequences of starting a fire you cannot control and how it may come back at you. When Special Forces or secret agents attack someone or something they better succeed, or the retaliation will follow you home. We see this happening every day in the current War on Terror. Traditionally, before 9/11, the terrorist activities were far away and something in the news, not in your neighbourhood if American or if from Western Europe. There were terrorist incidents, of course, especially in France where not all were Muslim related as such - Mossad taking out...

Code Name Odette deals with codes and cyphers as well as the dangers of radical penetration agents in Western Intelligence Agencies. What my research revealed was fascinating. I further wanted to explain the difference between a code and a cypher. I found that not many know the difference but I am sure after reading Code Name Odette, you will. We also found out that almost all the decrypted World War Two Bletchley Park cyphers were useless, as workable intelligence goes. On a tactical level, they were rarely used by those needing it most, the ground troops who were fighting the enemy. For ...
