A pre WW2 ‘Great Escape’ interest swagger stick, once the property of Pilot Officer Marcel Zillessen (1917-1999). The swagger stick is of usual form, with a lacquered malacca body, brass ferrule, and a nickel pommel. The pommel has badge of the Gresham School OTC (Officer Training Corps), and has the name ‘Zillessen’ scratched into both the metal of the pommel, and to the wood. There is also the word ‘Gresham’ and ‘Holt’, the latter being the location of the Gresham School in Norfolk. Notes: Marcel Zillessen was born in Northampton in 1917, to a German father and Irish mother. He attended the Gresham’s School between 1930 and 1933, joining the Officer Training Corps between the ages of 13 and 16. It’s unknown what rank the young Zillessen held during his time in the OTC, but this swagger stick is a memento of his time there. Marcel spent some time studying at university in Berlin, and was a fluent German speaker, a skill that was to pay dividends during his time spent as a POW. In 1943, While piloting a Hurricane in North Africa, Marcel was shot down, and eventually taken to the Luftwaffe run Prisoner of War camp, Stalag Luft III, which held allied Air Force personnel. Zillessen’s fluency in German help to gain him favours from his guard captors, who were to provide him with pens, paper and ink that were later used to forge travel documents. Marcel was instrumental in planning the escape from the camp, using the tunnels known as ‘Tom, Dick, and Harry’, and it’s well documented that he was to be the last man out from the Harry tunnel. Ultimately, the plot was foiled, and Marcel fled back to his barrack hut when the tunnels were discovered. Being the last man in line to leave may have ultimately saved his life, as 73 of the escapees were captured within 3 days, with 50 being executed on the direct orders of Hitler. Marcel’s character was portrayed in the Great Escape movie by James Garner (playing Bob Hendley ‘the scrounger’), although it’s thought that Garner’s character may have been an amalgamation of several different men from the camp. It’s thought that the swagger stick was acquired by a school friend, and fellow OTC member of Zillessen, who himself later went on to work at Bletchley Park during WW2. Approximately 70.3cm length. Condition: generally good. No major dents or splits to pommel, just normal light wear from use. The malacca body is free from any major issues, with just light wear and contact marks commensurate with use. Brass ferrule intact and in good used condition.
