The Road to Colditz

Описание к видео The Road to Colditz

Jock Hamilton-Baillie, Royal Engineers, was captured in France in 1940 and worked on escaping from German prisoner-of-war camps. He came very close to making it to Switzerland, but found himself in the wrong field at the border and was re-captured and sent to Colditz. This is a lecture he used to give to help raise money for the Red Cross to which he was eternally grateful for helping prison life. As an engineer he provides a captivating insight into the the mechanics of escaping, the obstacles that had to be overcome, and life at Colditz.
