Karel Čurda

Karel Čurda (10 October 1911 – 29 April 1947) was a Czech World War II soldier from the Czechoslovak army in exile. He was parachuted into the protectorate in 1942 as a member of the sabotage group Out Distance. He is known for his betrayal of the Czech and Slovak assassins of top Nazi official Reinhard Heydrich in Prague through Operation Anthropoid.

His rewards were 1,000,000 Reichsmarks and a new identity, "Karl Jerhot". He married a German woman and spent the rest of the war as a Gestapo spy.

After the war, Čurda was tracked down and arrested. When asked in court how he could betray his comrades, Čurda answered, "I think you would have done the same for 1 million marks." Karel Čurda found guilty of treason and hanged on April 29, 1947.
