High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Die Rote Kapelle (the Red Orchestra) was the name given by the Gestapo to three Soviet espionage rings operating in Nazi-occupied Europe and Switzerland during World War II. The term "Rote Kapelle" ("Red Orchestra") originated from the RSHA which referred to radio operators as "pianists", their transmitters as "pianos", and their supervisors as "conductors". "Red" stood for Communism. Thus, the German counterintelligence called the perceived Soviet covert network die Rote Kapelle, the "Red Orchestra". Unfortunately, this Gestapo term was used by history writers throughout the Cold War, discrediting one of the largest and politically independent resistance efforts against the Nazis. Most of its members were executed or taken to prisons and camps. After the war, wrongly accused of being Communists, the few survivors suffered from a second wave of persecution - they were publicly slandered as "traitors".
