The Great Escape picture with script and DVD  

The night of 24 March 1944 has gone down in history as one of the bravest and most daring escape attempts of the entire war. This was the night of 'The Great Escape'.  The senior British officer asked fellow prisoner and artist Ley Kenyon to make a visual record of 'Harry' – the tunnel that would ultimately be used for the escape.

Kenyon completed six drawings, all of which were sealed in a watertight container fashioned from old milk tins, and stored in the abandoned tunnel 'Dick'.  Now stored at the RAF Museum in Hendon, London, these drawings are of historical importance and 'The Entrance' shows the opening of tunnel 'Harry', hidden beneath the stove in Hut 104, one officer helping another into the 30-foot vertical shaft, as a 'stooge' keeps an eye out for patrolling German guards.

What makes this release so special is its exceptional link to the past, a drawing, made at the time by a POW right under the guards' noses, showing the epitome of determination, the desire to overcome oppression and the relentless drive towards freedom.
