 | | Monsignor O’Flaherty was awarded the highest honours six countries could bestow on him, including the CBE and the US Medal of Freedom with Silver Palm. |
 | | In 1963, the BBC decided to devote a This is Your Life programme to the Monsignor, but, because of his poor health, it was decided to feature instead Colonel Sam Derry, who was in charge of the British forces in Rome during the Nazi regime. |
