From the 1920s to the early 1950s, the arms manufacturer Prodromos Bodosakis-Athanasiadis had the leadership of the country in his pocket.[citation needed]
WW2
Greece was invaded by Germany in 1941. In that year an assessment by the Director of National Intelligence[Who?][citation needed] termed Prodromos Bodosakis-Athanasiadis a "thoroughly disreputable character, by some considered the most dangerous of all the Greeks". The OSS recruited him in 1942.
