The Great Escape: Revealed

Archaeologists and veterans visit the remains of German PoW camp Stalag Luft 3 to search for a secret tunnel that inspired the film The Great Escape.


Really looks good, especially the getting together of nearly a dozen RAF personnel who were PoWs there.

Darn, missed it. A great uncle of mine was a POW. I've got a letter somewhere with a Stalag Luft postmark on it.

Has anyone seen the Alan Clark diaries? Only Thatcherite tory I actually like.
