Since most of us here like to dig I thought THIS might give a few more of us an even greater respect for some of our elders...

I thought some of you might find this site interesting. It shows how POW's tunneled out of Stalag Luft III (made famous in the movie "The Great Escape") in Zagan, Poland back in WWII.

Don't forget to roll your mouse over the numbers to get an explanation of each part of the tunnel "Harry". And don't forget to click the "Next" button to go on the the next two parts of the tunnel layout and explanations.

Enjoy!
