I recently watched this documentary and found it very interesting. It tells the true story of "The Great Escape" that was later cinematically immortalized in the 1963 Steve McQueen film of that title.

Sadly, the two elderly participants who were interviewed on camera for this documentary died just two months apart earlier this year: Jack Lyon, aged 101, died on March 8; Charles Clarke, aged 95, passed on May 7.

I hadn't been aware of the details of the plan and of the escape until watching this. It's very impressive what the POWs were able to think up for how to go about things in ways that would not only evade detection but, ultimately, result in the escape of dozens of prisoners!
