Alot of stories compressed into a short (?) movie. I read a few months ago where they found another tunnell. Radar imaging and such. There are so many secrets about those days. I.E. the colditz glider.
I've read quite a bit about the WWII Pows. Amazing and heart breaking. For Instance, the Tsunami in Japan hit where there was a POW camp.
