9780752434209: Infringing Neutrality

Synopsis

Switzerland, that bastion of neutrality, was in an interesting position during the Second World War. Despite being neutral, the Allies used it as a short cut when flying over enemy territory, their planes often crash-landed there after being damaged over occupied Europe, and Allied airmen made for Switzerland when trying to escape from POW camps. Roger Anthoine has researched the RAF's incursions into Swiss air space, the aircraft that landed there, and the men who sought Switzerland as a safe haven.
