Download or read book The True Story of the Great Escape written by Jonathan F Vance and published by Greenhill Books. This book was released on 2019-01-30 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It shows the variety and depth of the men sent into harms way during World War II, something emphasised by the population of Stalag Luft III. Most of the Allied POWs were flyers, with all the technical, tactical and planning skills that profession requires. Such men are independent thinkers, craving open air and wide-open spaces, which meant than an obsession with escape was almost inevitable' - John D GreshamBetween dusk and dawn on the night of March 24th–25th 1944, a small army of Allied soldiers crawled through tunnels in Germany in a covert operation the likes of which the Third Reich had never seen before.The prison break from Stalag Luft III in eastern Germany was the largest of its kind in the Second World War. Seventy-nine Allied soldiers and airmen made it outside the wire – but only three made it outside Nazi Germany. Fifty were executed by the Gestapo.Jonathan Vance tells the incredible story that was made famous by the 1963 film The Great Escape. The escape is a classic tale of prisoner and their wardens in a battle of wits and wills.The brilliantly conceived escape plan is overshadowed only by the colourful, daring (and sometimes very funny) crew who executed it – literally under the noses of German guards.From their first days in Stalag Luft III and the forming of bonds key to such exploits, to the tunnel building, amazing escape and eventual capture, Vance's history is a vivid, compelling look at one of the greatest 'exfiltration' missions of all time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of an eleventh generation “Yankee”, who joined the military during WWII. After completing high school Harv enlisted in the military only to find himself on his way to Europe to serve as a B24 combat navigator –bombardier in the 15th Air Force. On April 25, 1944 Harv was on a raid to Varese, Italy when the 450th bomb group formation got into the clouds and the plane, Maiden USA, was struck by a force of German ME-109’s. The Maiden USA suffered severe damage as the Luftwaffe continued to attack. A number of crew members lost their lives while others were injured and parachuted from the aircraft. The nineteen year old “Yank” found himself a POW in Hitler’s Third Reich at Stalag Luft III. He participated in two of the infamous camp evacuation marches that occurred near the end of the war. Harv relates his experiences as the youngest member of the camps and how he survived. The book gives the reader a vivid first hand portrayal of a young American’s fear and hope during his capture and confinement by the Germans. During the ordeal Harv was able to see the humor in a tough situation.

Download or read book In Japan the Crickets Cry written by Ronald Clements and published by Monarch Books. This book was released on 2012-07-18 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steve had suffered under the brutal regime of his Japanese guards. He and his classmates at Chefoo school in China ' for the most part the children of missionaries ' had been interned in 1942. Resentment of the Japanese was a way of life. Could he possibly pray for them? Painfully, reluctantly, he found that he could, and his prayers sank deep. At the end of the war the China Inland Mission was seeking young men willing to go to Japan . Steve trained, packed and went. Thus began Steve's lifelong love of Japan. Over the years he would tussle with a culture where courtesy wins over truth; where suicide is an honourable choice; where to be foreign is to be forever alien. Time after time he would encounter miracles of healing, provision, and protection as God looked after him, his wife Evelyn and their growing family. In a resistant culture he would see many come to Christ. This is the story of how a boy's grudging prayers were remarkably answered.

Download or read book Behind Barbed Wire written by Morris John Roy and published by . This book was released on 1946 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is an authentic record of and for those combat airmen in the European Theatre of Operations who, as prisoners of war, were confined in Stalag Luft I, Barth, Germany. It was written there, the illustrations were drawn there, and the photographs taken there. It contains a Directory of the men confined in the camp, and their home addresses--as nearly complete a directory as it was possible to gather under existing circumstances. Part I comprises the stories of twelve flight missions that ended in disaster over enemy territory, each told by a participant who escaped death; and the experiences of "Joe Flieger," typical downed airman, from the moment of landing until he reached Barth -- experiences which might well be a composite of those of the twelve narrators."--Foreword
