In World War II, the brave KLM England Voyagers risked their lives to fly from Nazi-occupied Netherlands to Britain. In this episode, you’ll meet two of these remarkable heroes and discover how they kept hope alive through dangerous skies. But airplanes weren’t the only messengers! During the war, carrier pigeons also carried secret notes across enemy lines — tiny feathered aviators with big jobs to do.

We’ll also uncover the story of the Air Transport Auxiliary, a lesser-known group of pilots (including women!) who ferried planes and broke barriers in aviation history.

This is a story of courage, teamwork, and the many surprising ways people fought back during WWII.
