Even if they survived leaping from a crashing B-17 or Lancaster, they were then faced with the daunting task of getting home. 6,000 British and American flyers would find their way back to friendly territory, almost all with the help of European resistance cells. In this video, we discuss the process of successfully escaping and evading during World War II, the dangers associated with such a risky act, and those who put their lives on the line to help downed airmen.
