I've been researching the biography of an American OSS agent and came across a reference I have not been able to confirm.
Prior to his joining the OSS, he had been in the French Foreign Legion and was captured during the German invasion of France. He escaped, and on his way back to the United States he, in his own words: "stayed in Paris for about a month, helping to pull a job on Gestapo headquarters." The month in question would have been some time between 1 Oct 1941 and 28 Nov 1941.
These dates are highly reliable, but the vagueness of "pull a job" and "Gestapo headquarters" leaves room for interpretation. It could conceivably have been anything from a prison break at Avenue Foch, an assassination at Rue de la Pompe, a break-in at Avenue Henri Martin, etc.
This is pretty far outside my area of expertise, so any ideas or references will be greatly appreciated, and I would be happy to provide more detail if it would be useful.
Could also have been there http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%B4tel_de_Beauvau or there http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carlingue
The main gestapo officers in Paris were

(the english wiki articles are less detailed). Nothing particularly relevant to your question however. It is notable that the French Resistance started "pulling jobs" mostly from august 1941, an example being the murder in Nantes of http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Hotz on the 20th of October, followed by very severe reprisals, including the execution of 4 hostages in Paris. Those died as planned though, I'm mostly mentionning it because it's a VERY important/famous episode for the French, and it's chronologically relevant. On September 15th, german soldiers were also attacked in Paris.
Providing the name of the american agent would probably help. You may find something looking at this books.google.fr/books?isbn=2756409685
