Allies

While James Bond is a first rate secret agent, he wouldn't get very far without help from his friends. From Felix Leiter to Milos Columbo, Captain Carter to Kamran Shah, and Valentin Dmitrovich Zukovsky to Raoul, Bond has had a variety of allies.

Established in Dr. No, Bond's allies would take on a variety of guises from one-time allies through re-occurring characters with help from unlikely sources. All of Bond's allies have assisted him in different ways and means throughout the films. He finds traditional help from his CIA counterpart and friend, Felix Leiter, useful resources from Marc Ange Draco's empire, and the hidden assets of Tiger Tanaka and the Japanese Secret Service. Even the most unlikely of allies like Sheriff J.W Pepper and Dolly, have aided Bond in completing his quest.

Who could also forget the iconic MI6 staff, such as Bond's briefings from various M's over the years, or his many flirtatious scenes with Miss Moneypenny. And without Q's gadgets in From Russia With Love, Bond would have been killed on only his second assignment by Donald 'Red' Grant.

Sadly, being associated with helping James Bond has its drawbacks. Kerim Bey, Vijay and many other allies have paid the ultimate price in providing their unique and irreplaceable talents to help Bond with his mission. One thing however is certain; Bond's allies will always be able to provide him with the intelligence, assistance and supplies when it's most needed, helping the world's most famous secret agent survive to fight another day. §
