Mage Joseph

Combining in 1914-1918 the functions of head of the intelligence service of the Belgian Grand Quartier Général, and of commanding officer of the Sûreté militaire of the rear front, Joseph Mage was a soldier who was teaching chemistry at the Royal Military School. Besides his linguistic skills, his extensive knowledge of chemistry, ballistics, explosives, and engineering equipment were probably the reasons why he was appointed at the head of the military secret services.
