Perkins, who had lived in Bielsko Biała before the war, made a further comment about how pleased he was to learn that Soviet as well as German losses on the Eastern Front were ‘swelling nicely’. After leaving Warsaw in January 1944, Lerski travelled by train to Paris on the false papers of a German engineer from Estonia, before walking across the Pyrenees to Gibraltar. He then worked as the private secretary to Tomasz Arciszewski, the Socialist Prime Minister of the Polish Government in London.
