 USS Clueless - Swiss National Redoubt

Also in Part One, Eisenhower appeared convinced that the Germans had only three remaining avenues of resistance available; a falling out among the Allies, the Werwolf-Guerrilla movement, and the National Redoubt.
The National Redoubt is generally considered to be one of the final intelligence failures by the Allies during the war, yet this conclusion is somewhat unsatisfactory.

 Victor Davis Hanson on War on National Review Online
Thus in almost paranoid frenzy they diverted troops to hunt down a mythical National Redoubt where purportedly a Hitler on the lam might plan terror and guerrilla resistance that could re-galvanize a demoralized populace.
The Romans realized this, and thus understood that Gallic liberation, Numidian resistance, or Hellenic nationalism would melt away when a Vercingetorix, Jugurtha, or Mithridates all were collared, dead, or allowed suicide.

 National Review: Soldier of Contrasts. - "Eisenhower: A Soldier's Life" - book review
Furthermore, Eisenhower was strangely obsessed with a mythical "National Redoubt" of purported Nazi diehards, even as millions nearby came under brutal Russian occupation; a different perspective at the top of the Allied leadership might have prevented, or at least reduced the scope of, a half-century of Communist domination of Eastern Europe.
National Review, August 12, 2002 by Victor Davis Hanson

 ULTRA and the Myth of the German "National Redoubt" - Storming Media
Abstract: This study investigates the creation of a mythical fortifications system called the German National Redoubt and the use of ULTRA to confirm its existence.
The work includes a brief background of the Redoubt and examines how the state of intelligence at Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Force helped turn enemy propaganda into reality.
With a better understanding of how Supreme Headquarters built this myth, perhaps future commanders will understand the importance of integrating intelligence obtained from all sources.

There are several limitations to this study of ULTRA and the "National Redoubt." First, General Eisenhower and his staff officers could not be interviewed, therefore it is difficult to determine the exact information that was being considered by Eisenhower and his staff at the time.
