In 1943 work had begun on 'Harry', the tunnel that allowed over 70 men to escape from the German POW camp, 'Stalag III', during World War II.
This is a fascinating look at a tunnel that was built in an "escape proof" German POW Camp, a tunnel which allowed 76 Allied POWs to escape. Check it out. Run your cursor over each number # 1-16 and it will tell you about it. Then click on the word "NEXT" in the corner of the same site window and the story will unfold.

Someone sent it to me and I did quite a bit of extra research and it was awesome what went on.
I can't imagine what it must have been like tunneling in secret..for 11 months.. not knowing if any second you might be caught.
