During the German occupation of Rome from 1942 to 1944, Monsignor
Hugh O'Flaherty ran an escape organisation for Allied POWs and
civilians, including Jews. Safe within the Vatican state, he
regularly ventured out in disguise to continue his mission, which
earned him the nickname 'the Pimpernel of the Vatican'. Kappler,
the Gestapo chief in Rome, ordered him captured or killed. When the
Allies entered Rome, Monsignor O'Flaherty and his colleagues had
saved over 6,500 lives.
