The fourth story is of a later evader in Belgium who was able to meet the oncoming Allies in 1944  instead of going to Spain. The fifth story details the evasion of an entire bomber crew from the  island of Corfu over to Albania. They stayed at a guerilla camp in the mountains and eventually  escaped by ship to Italy after much hardship. The final story is of of a flyer who evaded through  Italy. Originally captured by the Germans upon landing, he was released from jail with many others when Italy signed an armistice  with the allies. He spent the rest of his time evading the Germans and traveling around Italy (with much help from Italian partisans)  and finally escaping to the Allied lines after many setbacks.

One of the central themes of the book is the sacrifice made by the occupied population to feed and help the Allied fliers escape.  Every story has a follow-up at the end about the later life of the evader and what happened to the people that helped them evade (if  known).
