Stan (died 1940) was the friend of Eddie Gorm and his partner in their London dockers business, the Gorm & Co.
Biography[]
On 7 September 1940, Stan met up with Eddie after the latter had marked up the face of arms-dealer Spencer for using his turf to distribute. Stan commented that simply cutting up Spencer's face was too soft a punishment as he'd soon return to his old tricks. Later that day, Stan set up a meeting with Jack Turpin and his right-hand man, Robert Burton. Although after hearing their proposal about shipping good out of a French company, Eddie bade them farewell and chastised Stan for falling so low as to deal with gangsters.[1]
On 20 September, Stan having discovered Turpin's true identity, as a Schutzstaffel spy, cornered him with a knife on the night that Eddie had finally decided to work with him (on the instruction of the Assassins who'd recently recruited him) to break into an establishment and steal research on Project Manhattan. Turpin, proposed to them to work for the Germans, which Stan considered inconceivable. However, he was annoyed by the acceptance of Eddie, whose family had perished under the bombing of the Blitz a few days earlier. To prove his allegiance to the Nazi's, Gorm was ordered to kill Stan, to which he complied.[1]
