Wally Floody: The Great Escape’s ‘Tunnel King’
The mass escape of 76 airmen from a German POW Camp on March 24, 1944 was made famous by the Hollywood blockbuster action film The Great Escape.

The deluxe DVD set has two disks. The second disk contains every documentary and side film you could want to see on the subject. The Americans apparently were gone prior to the escape. Also, the British tracked down every SS/Gestapo murderer and brought them to justice (hanging).

I fortunately have a very good friend who took part in the Escape. I visit him a couple of times a week and pick his brain.
