Solution
The correct option is B Rudolf Hess
On 10 May 1941, Adolf Hitler's deputy Rudolf Hess
parachuted into Scotland, landing in a field near Eaglesham. The
prominent Nazi had flown solo for nearly 1,000 miles from Bavaria in a
Messerschmitt Bf 110, apparently on a peace mission in the days leading
up to Germany's invasion of Russia. He was imprisoned and later convicted.
