He helped in the garden and ‘collected news from Italian newspapers, making a resume of them in English which he managed brilliantly’.He was transferred to Castello di Vincigliata (PG12) in April 1942.

The escape was successful -six officers escapes and two managed to make Switzerland, New Zealanders Brigadiers James Hargest and Reginald Miles.He was able to escape during the Italian Armistice in September 1943 with the remaining officers and men.

He joined the Italian partisans known as the Garibaldi Brigade Romagna under the leadership of Libero Riccardo Fedel. During the winter of 1943/4 this partisan group helped dozens of allied prisoners to escape and together with MI9 officers he reached Allied lines in Ancona, by fishing boat with Guy E Ruggles-Brise (who later - like him became a High Sheriff of Essex after the war) together with Combe, Ranfurly and an American pilot Jack Reiter by May 1944.
