In 1777, when the Felix Meritis Society was established by the citizens of Amsterdam for the advancement of arts and sciences, its founders would surely have been delighted that, over 200 years later, their objectives are still alive and being interpreted in a contemporary way that seeks to influence the future.
Felix Meritis adds context to content and as a result is naturally considered the international centre for the Netherlands where reflection takes place, artistic production is presented and discussion is conducted.
Felix will exploit all media that carry ideas and be the physical meeting place in Amsterdam that it is impossible to pass through without connecting to those who have most to say about the development of the world around us.

 Operation Mercury: The German Invasion of Crete, 20 May-1 June 1941
The operation was the brainchild of Generalmajor Kurt Student, the commander, and fanatical proponent of the airborne arm (the Fallschirmjäger) who believed that the paratroopers could operate in their own right and not merely be used to support the Wehrmacht.
Operation Felix (the attack on Gibraltar) was put on hold, possibly until late 1942, due to Franco’s bland non-commitment to the Axis cause, but Operation Marita (the invasion of Greece) had become more important than ever to due the need to secure the right flank of the advance into the Soviet Union.
British operations on Crete were hampered by the poor shape many units found themselves in after the campaign in Greece, indecision, misunderstanding, a lack of information (at least when the fighting started) and poor communications in the chain of command, both on Crete itself from Crete to Egypt.

 UGA professor's new book details his part in secret Allied mission to the Azores in World War II
The operation has been mostly unknown since it took place 60 years ago, largely, Herz argues, since it would have embarrassed the Allied governments who planned to build the airfield with or without the permission of the government of Portugal.
Churchill named the mission Operation Alacrity, and when the airfield became operational, its success against U-boats was immediate and dramatic, in some ways making the American role in the invasion of Europe on June 6, 1944, possible.
For his role in the operation he was commended by the commanding general and appointed to officer candidate school.

 HyperWar: US Army in WWII: The Framework of Hemisphere Defense [Chapter 3]
Nevertheless, American leaders were probably correct in focusing their attention on Germany and its unpredictable Fuehrer, and therefore on the Atlantic aspects of the war, at least until after the Nazi-Soviet conflict began in June 1941.
When the Nazis launched their attack on the West in the spring of 1940 they acted on a carefully calculated operational plan that achieved a quick and decisive victory far sooner than they themselves had anticipated, and therefore they did not have ready any plan for operations thereafter.
Germany had plenty of military means to carry out the projected Gibraltar-Africa operation and probably could have done so in the fall and winter of 1940-41 without unduly interfering with the projected Soviet invasion scheduled for 1941.
