I nearly forgot, so focused was I on Jalur and Edmund (the Younger)... I've been meaning to mention that the same day I read your Fic Exchange regarding Katyn, I read an article about some files that just came to light proving the U.S. helped cover up Soviet guilt in the massacre. I don't suppose you could have possibly planned that, but I'm still suspicious...
Also, I wonder if you might have any use for Joan Pujol Garcia, a fascinating Spaniard and one of the few (if not only) to receive decorations from both the Allies and the Germans. An Allied double agent posing as a German agent, he invented a network of nonexistent spies and helped deceive the Germans regarding the location of the Allied landing. (I believe a recent movie, "Garbo the Spy", tells his story, though I haven't seen it.) I don't know if it's useful, but inventing fictional agents to deliver falsified information to the Germans sounds, to me at least, very much like something Rat would enjoy.
