It looks like that last mission gave us more questions that answers. Who is this Ubelmann, anyway? And what does he have to do with the Council's interest in World War II?<noinclude>[[Category:Common Missions]]</noinclude>
Whatever the reason, the 5th Column's sudden interest in history only seems to be growing. Something tells me that this 'Ubelmann' character is the key, but I wonder what it's all about?

Mission Acceptance

Something tells me the 5th Column's interest is more than academic.

Clue
The historian's story

One of the historians you rescued told you:

'After they kidnapped us, a peculiar man arrived to interrogate us. The rest of them all acted like he was in charge. His name was Ubelmann, and he wanted to know everything I knew about the history of the Second World War. He knew a lot, but he had the oddest gaps in his knowledge. For example, when we started talking about the North Africa campaign, he knew who Rommel was, but he didn't know how he died. As I said, very strange.'
