On the night of 24th March 1944, 76 took part in the world famous Great Escape from Stalag Luft III in Germany. Hitler was informed, and five million people prepared to take part in the largest manhunt of the war - with tragic consequences. One year later, 70 German POWs escaped from the high security camp in Bridgend in Wales and were tracked by a motley collection of armed soldiers, Home Guard, dogs, local children and Girl Guides. One of the largest manhunts of the whole war was dramatic, serious and comic in turn - but not tragic.
