John Curtis

Flight Lieutenant John Curtis (b. c. 1913) was a Royal Air Force officer who worked with Lifeline.

From Leeds, England, Curtis was a Flight Lieutenant with the RAF. At some point in the early 1940s, his plane crashed in Europe and he was guided back to England by Lifeline. In his first appearance in “Lisa, Code Name Yvette”, he was chosen to become a Special Operations Executive liaison officer and was sent to Belgium to assist Lifeline. He was twenty-nine years old at this time, and was chosen partially because of his ability to speak excellent French, as well as decent German and Dutch.

He was attracted to Lisa Colbert from the first time he met her, which intensified upon his return to Brussels. At first she did not reciprocate, as she still felt devoted to her late fiancé Peter. However, before Curtis left for Switzerland in his final appearance, they shared a kiss.
