ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Walter Krivitsky

Walter Krivitsky was a man who lived a long time ago. He was born in Russia and later became a secret spy for his country. However, he did not agree with the things his country was doing and decided to tell other countries about their secret spy plans. This made his country very mad and they started to look for him.

To stay safe, Krivitsky ran away to different countries but he was always looking over his shoulder, making sure his country's spies weren't following him. Sadly, one day his country's spies did find him and he passed away, but people still remember him for being a very brave person who tried to do the right thing.
