COCO CHANEL SPIED FOR HITLER

  Coco Chanel was the best-dressed Nazi spy in the 1940s, according to a shocking new book on her life, which claims the creator and muse behind the Chanel brand was an intelligence operative for the German military organization Abwehr.

Journalist Hal Vaughan, born in America and who lives in Paris, lays out evidence of Chanel's work with the Nazis during World War II in a new book, "Sleeping With the Enemy: Coco Chanel's Secret War." Vaughan reports that in 1940, Chanel was recruited into the Abwehr, having been introduced to the organization through one of her lovers, Baron Hans Gunther von Dincklage, a German agent who was honored by Adolf Hitler and Joseph Goebbels during the war.
