WWII Elevator Escape by Kenneth Pedersen profile Historical Espionage 2022 Web Site

About the Story

The German Resistance consisted of small, isolated groups that were unable to mobilize widespread political opposition. Still, successful disclosure of information regarding Nazi armaments factories to the Allies occurred.

You are such a brave soul and you have managed to come very close to Hitler's inner circle. During a meeting in Berlin, Spring 1942, you will have the opportunity to get some crucial information. The meeting is held on the ground floor of a nine-storey building.

However, it is believed that your secret affiliation has just been compromised and that this news will soon reach Hitler and his most trusted men around him. But the meeting is too important to skip.

Thus, the German Resistance has an escape plan for you: As soon as you have received the much needed information, you will leave the meeting room. However, the front door is heavily guarded so you will have to take the elevator to the roof, where a parachute has been hidden. You must then parachute down to the nearby park where the Resistance will have a car waiting for you...
