Add to basket(Subject: World War II - Italy) Major D'Arcy Mander was awarded a DSO in 1944 for espionage work which he carried out in Rome following his escape from captivity. Mander had been captured while serving with the Green Howards in the Western Desert, and flown to Italy. Mander accepted captivity for a while, putting his time to good use by learning Italian. In 1943 he escaped from a prisoner-of-war train in northern Italy and, adopting the alias Pietro Bartoli, he proceeded to walk to Rome. The city was under German occupation and Mander decided to set up his own intelligence network.
