An Official History M.I.9: The Official History of the Secret Escape and Evasion Organisation Includes details of the lectures given to troops on how to avoid capture if on the run in enemy occupied territory, and of secret equipment issued to them to help them escape, such as silk maps and comprehensive escape kits. Provides stories from servicemen that escaped and returned to the UK, which was used to teach troops how they too could evade capture. Such stories helped show servicemen how to forge documents, how to travel through enemy-occupied countries without being detected, what disguises could be used that would not attract the attention of the enemy, and provided lists of local people willing to help escapers - and this included Pope Pius XII. The troops were also instructed how to write coded messages in letters to the UK from PoW camps.
