Quoted from Davec
So is Paul Hurst revving up his motorbike?!


If you remember the film, he fell literally at the final hurdle, and most of the others were caught (and shot). Not a good model in this case (though probably a good metaphor for our predicament).


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The chirpy little West Country rear gunner got the tunnel misaligned so it came up in the Commandant’s office.

Sadly I think we’re at the “good luck” “thanks!” stage of the film.

Didn't they all die in the film?

I think about 3 got home runs. In the film and in reality.

I think we’re more in Colditz territory now. Is Hursty going to be Major Pat Reid?
