About RAF Evaders (The Comp Story of RAF Escapees & Their Escape Lines, West Euro, 1940-1945)

During the five years from May 1940 to May 1945 several thousand Allied airmen, forced to abandon their aircraft behind enemy lines, evaded capture and reached freedom, by land, sea and air.&nbsp;<p>The territory held by the Germans was immense – from Norway and Denmark in the north, through to Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg out to the south of France – and initially there was no organisation to help the men on the run.&nbsp;</p><p>The first one to assist the evaders and escapers was the PAT line, along the Mediterranean coast to Perpignan and down to the Spanish border; named after a naval officer Pat O’ Leary, from 1942 it became the PAO line.</p><p>Next was the Comet line, from Brussels to the Pyrenees.&nbsp;</p><p>Thousands of brave people were to be involved for whom, if caught, the penalty was death.&nbsp;</p><p>Theirs is a stirring and awe-inspiring story.&nbsp;</p><p>Respected historian Oliver Clutton-Brock has researched in depth this secret world of evasion, uncovering some treachery and many hitherto unpublished details, operations and photos.&nbsp;</p><p>It is a tremendous reference work, written in his own colourful style with numerous anecdotes, which fills a gap of knowledge formerly unavailable to historians, professional or amateur.&nbsp;</p><p>Packed with information, key figure bios and other listings – 2,094 evaders are ALL identified – this is a invaluable testimony to the courage of all those involved.</p><p>Illustrated.</p><p>Companion Volume to earlier Release 'Footprints In The Sands Of Time' which is all about the POW Experience.</p><p>Originally Published 2009 &amp; Reprinted due to public demand in 2012 with a new cover but same information, now out of print and only available Digitally (Released 2021).</p>
