The movie "The Great Escape" that featured James Garner and Steve McQueen was based on the real escape of 76 men from the Nazi POW camp Stalag Luft III.Nova has explored the legendary escape on a special microsite that features the articles:
Inside Tunnel "Harry"
A Prisoner's Sketchbook
The Three That Got Away (although 76 made it out of the camp, only 3 made it to freedom)
and History's Great Escapes
Enjoy, "Great Escape" fans!

Thanks. This also reminds me how badly I need to re-visit the movie. Its on amazon for 9.99 and apparently a great transfer. Hmmmm. I might as well get it while I'm in McQueen mode.
