A POW letter from 748272 Geoffrey Patrick Hickman who flew with 609, 152 & 92 Squadrons - on 20/9/41 he was escorting a sweep over Northern France in Spitfire W3179 he was forced to bale out over Abbeville and captured. 11/8/42 Along with 3 others he escaped from Gliewitz and by 17/10/42 he had made it to Warsaw where he remained until picked up 10/12/43, at some point in the next few weeks he was executed (well murdered) in Pawiak Prison. I'm part way through reading Warsaw1944 and came across the passage below which gives passing reference to his murder and identifying his murderer
