Donald Currie Caskie DD OBE OCF (22 May 1902 – 27 December 1983) was a minister in the Church of Scotland, best known for his work in France during World War II. He was a member of the Pat O'Leary escape line which helped up to 500 Allied sailors, soldiers and airmen to escape from occupied France (mainly through Spain). The 'Fasti' – the record of all Church of Scotland ministers since the Reformation – simply mentions that he was "engaged in church and patriotic duties in France, 1939–1945". In his autobiography The Tartan Pimpernel he states that 'he had been called to Paris in 1935.'

  • Ba de chuid ar an Íle, Earra-Ghàidheal agus Bòd, é Donald Caskie (22 Bealtaine 1902 – 27 Nollaig 1983). Le linn an Dara Cogadh Domhanda chuidigh sé le cúpla míle saighdiúir de chuid na gComhghuaillithe éalú as an bhFrainc, a bhí faoi rialtas Vichy agus na nGearmánach, go Sasana. Gabhadh é dhá uair agus ar an dara hócáid, daoradh chun báis é. Cuireadh an breithiúnas sin ar ceal, áfach. D'fhan sé sa Fhrainc go dtí 1961, agus ansin d'fhill sé ar Albain. (ga)
