about this piece
oEveryone in this room is living on borrowed time. BY rights we should all be dead! The only reason that God allowed us this extra ration of life is so we can make life hell for the Huna three bloody deep, bloody long tunnels will be dug u Tom, Dick, and Harry. One will succeed! With those words the chief escape officer in Stalag Luft III, Squadron Leader Roger Bushell RAF, announced his plan for perhaps the most daring escape attempt of the war u the mass breakout of 200 men through the digging of three long tunnels (nicknamed Tom, Dick, and Harry), an audacious feat of tunnelling that would be long and dangerous. Just after 22.00hrs on the night of 24/25 March 1944, the first escapee broke through to the surface u only to find it well short of the surrounding trees. The escapees would have to crawl to the cover of the trees under the noses of the patrolling sentries. Richard TaylorÆs masterful new piece captures the scene as POWs escape into the cool night air and realize, to their dawning horror, that their planned exit has fallen short of the woods.
