81 fifth columnist
участник "пятой колонны" [этим. см. fifth column]All I knew about Gretley was that it an industrial town in the North Midlands, with a pre-war population of about forty thousand, that there'd been serious leakages of information from it, which suggested the presence there of one or two genuine nazi agents as well as the usual fifth columnists... (J. B. Priestley, ‘Black-out in Gretley’, ch. 1) — О Гретли мне известно только то, что это промышленный город в северной части центральных графств, в котором до войны было около сорока тысяч жителей, что оттуда к немцам просачиваются важные сведения и что, наряду с обычной пятой колонной, там орудуют и два-три настоящих нацистских агента.
