Cadix was the codename of a World War II clandestine Allied intelligence center that operated at Uzès, on the Mediterranean coast in southern, Vichy France, for over two years, from September 1940 to November 9, 1942.
The Cadix center's codename apparently derived from the French for the Spanish city of "Cádiz."
Additional information on this French-Polish-Spanish-staffed center may be found in the article on PC Bruno.
