John Ainsworth-Davis
Contents
Background
John Ainsworth-Davis was the son of Welsh Athlete John Creyghton Ainsworth-Davis, who is mentioned in Wikipedia as a gold medal winner in the men's 4x400m relay in the 1920 Olympics.[1] He notes that his father was congratulated in person by Sub-Lieutenant Lord Louis Mountbatten, the Duke of York (later King George VI) and his younger brother Prince Henry (later Duke of Gloucester).
Career
According to Op JB, John Ainsworth-Davis' career in the M-Section of naval intelligence began in March 1940, aged 15½, when he was recruited by Desmond Morton.
Writing
Under the pen name 'Christopher Creighton', in 1996 Ainsworth-Davis published Op JB[2].
Op JB
Op JB recounts his experience leading Operation James Bond, ordered by Desmond Morton, to recover the huge nazi fortune which had been salted away by Martin Bormann, Hitler's private secretary. Ainsworth-Davis recounts that the operation was personally approved by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill, King George VI and US President Franklin Roosevelt, and was led by Ian Fleming and himself.
Veracity
The publishers preface states that "in the end, readers will have to make their own judgements about what they believe. What is not in doubt is that this book is a thrilling story from a remarkable man". Ainsworth-Davis' account, alleges that Martin Bormann was successfully rescued from Berlin, taken back to UK and died in Paraguay in 1959. Published 50 years after the fact, his account is detailed and compelling but lacks supporting references. It include copies of two single page, typewritten letters:
- A poorly photocopied 1954 letter from Winston Churchill instructing him to say nothing about the operation until Churchill is dead.
- A 1963 letter by Ian Fleming confirming the basic account.
The Independent wrote in 1996 "A rattling good yarn? Certainly. Believable? Hardly. The author has done his best to match his story with what has been published, but not enough. The recent row over the Anglo-Swiss negotiations on German funds in Swiss banks, provoked by American declassification, came too late for him. He is unaware too of the remarkable detective work by the American writer, Lynn H. Nicholas, on the fate of the Nazi war loot."[3]
In 1996 The OpJB book became a bestseller in Germany. This unsettled the German government so much, that in 1997 the West German prosecutor called for a thorough forensics and DNA investigation on the remains of Martin Bormann. Reference to the reason for the lab work is even mentioned in the original clinical papers where they refer to The British author C.Creighton a former British agent Int J Legal Med. 2001;114(3):194-6. Identification of the skeletal remains of Martin Bormann by mtDNA analysis. Anslinger K1, Weichhold G, Keil W, Bayer B, Eisenmenger W. The forensic results came back after the legal medical team matched blood from a Bormann relative, the match was positive.
A confirmation of the remains being those of Bormann was released to the world’s press, along with the statement that Martin Bormann had died in 1945, at the Berlin site where his remains were found in 1972. On the publication of the 1998 Bormann DNA report, and statements given to the media, London’s ‘Daily Express’ newspaper called the Bormann report a ‘’whitewash’’ perpetrated by the Brandt government. Later Stewart Steven the very experienced foreign editor of London's Daily Express, was sacked for publishing the ‘’whitewash’’ article.
The Final Mountbatten Report
From 1976 to 2006 Ainsworth-Davis wrote The Final Mountbatten Report which describes the run up to Op JB. The lengthy writing time is explained by "the theft and sabotage of reference material amounting to tampered evidence, by what is today our Counter-Intelligence".[4]

| Event | Description |

The Final Mountbatten Report
From 1976 to 2006 Ainsworth-Davis wrote the first draft of The Final Mountbatten Report which describes the run up to Op JB. The lengthy writing time is explained by "the theft and sabotage of reference material amounting to tampered evidence, by what is today our Counter-Intelligence".
In 2006 John Ainsworth-Davis bypassed his high profile, award winning British literary agent and sent a draft manuscript to British Journalist Laurence de Mello aka Ami de Creighton in Buenos Aires, who he brought in as co-author. He requested that Ami de Creighton help him get the manuscript into shape, finish the book and publish asap offshore and in secret. After anonymous threats from the UK to Ami de Creighton, three copies of the draft manuscript was placed in three safety deposit boxes in a Buenos Aires bank vault, till 2011 while de Creighton worked on the book. In the interim 2008 John Ainsworth-Davis had a mysterious flood in his London home, where he kept all his papers and computers. The hard drives were beyond saving. But little did the culprits realize that Ainsworth-Davis had taken precautions, and a copy of the original draft was still safe in Buenos Aires. He then went 'off radar' for the next two years. In 2011 Ami de Creighton found what she believed to be a trusted historian/author/editor, who agreed to help edit and work on the index. He also suggested he add a small section at the back.
The book was then published in July 2012 by a German publishing company with which the editor was a partner. When de Creighton flew a few months later to the UK to meet with John Ainsworth-Davis and the publisher, The book was not what de Creighton had agreed to. But it was too late to make changes as there were 2000 luxury hard copies already delivered from Germany to London and marketing was ready to go.. Weeks later John Ainsworth-Davis's London book agent threatened to sue Ami de Creighton and intimidated his 87 year old client John Ainsworth-Davis, telling them that they could 'not publish anything again' about 'Christopher Creighton and his WWII operations due to an unconscionable contract forced on John Ainsworth-Davis in the presence of Ami de Creighton in September 2012. de Creighton argued that the publication of their book preceded the forced contract and that he could do nothing about it. (Ami de Creighton believes John Ainsworth-Davis's London literary agent, is a SIS asset who was controlling and continues to suppress information as to Ainsworth-Davis's true story).
Within weeks, the editor then curiously hijacked the book, making unauthorized changes and unlawfully placed it on his own website for sale. The editor also nominated himself as the author removed de Creighton and proceeded to make dire threats and libelous comments against John Ainsworth-Davis and Ami de Creighton. John Ainsworth-Davis wanted to bring legal proceeding against the editor, but Ami de Creighton advised him not to as she suspected the editor had been 'bought' and this was just another operation to block and delay publication. Evidence of this being a possibility is when the editor had blatantly put the credibility of the book at risk, by giving radio interviews during the marketing period, where he made very damaging allegations about John Ainsworth's respected superior, Lord louis Mountbatten. The live radio commentary included extremely graphic supposed accounts of Mountbatten's homosexuality and perversions and followed it up by bizarrely referring to himself as The Lord Chancellor as he done on the spine of the the book. He also made other radio interviews during the period de Creighton was closing retail agreements with Waterstones UK, where he accused Ami de Creighton of being a 'Nazi' Intel agent and a 'thief' and along with John Ainsworth-Davis, part of a 2012 Nazi covert intelligence operation to subject him to mind ops and murder him.
