But there's also pro military links suggesting that it's a myth. For example this one, which says she probably didn't expose anyone, but that US reporting did contribute to the enemy's efforts:

Here's Nick Rowe's autobiography. It should mention Fonda if she was involved with his story, I suppose. I'll pick it up the next time I see it:
