(77787), Royal Air Force.The Recommendation states: 'For the past two years Wing Commander Hallows has been responsible for planning the war organistation of the R.A.F. It has been his duty to convert operational plans into practical administrative possibilities. This has meant an enormous amount of troublesome, detailed work which, in a continuously changing situation, has been complicated and full of frustrations and disappointments. Nevertheless despite innumerable setbacks Wing Commander Hallows has preserved throughout an unshakable spirit and unbounded energy. The smooth and efficient manner in which large U.S.A.F. reinforcements were received into this country during the recent international crisis was very largely due to the careful, painstaking and thorough preliminary work which had been done by Wing Commander Hallows and the officers under him. Much of this was far beyond the duties normally expected of an officer of his rank and appointment and required considerable initiative. His exceptional efforts are deserving of recognition.'D.F.C.

In this way he mislead the enemy as to the direction of his escape. He later hid in a ditch within a stone's throw of enemy headquarters until nightfall, when, despite a thorough search during which patrols stood within ten yards of him, he commenced his journey southwards by using the flashes from the torches of the search parties as a guide. He finally got clear by crawling five hundred yards to pass between two sentries.Although by now a hue and cry had been raised, he succeeded in obtaining a disguise and eventually reached Paris.<b
