Guerrilla in striped pants : a U.S. diplomat joins the Italian resistance

Walter W. Orebaugh with Carol Jose ; foreword by Philip C. Habib

In this account, Walter W. Orebaugh, a former US diplomat, tells of his adventures behind the lines in Italy during World War II - a courageous odyssey which won him his country's acclaim as a hero and the medal of freedom. The drama of Orebaugh's capture by the Italian army, his internment in the mountains, and his subsequent escape is punctuated by his heroic smuggling of two female companions out of danger, his encounter with a glamorous Hungarian spy, and his treacherous journey through enemy territory to freedom. Orebaugh's account underscores the courage, hope, and ingenuity of ordinary people in times of peril.
