127 - Escape From Colditz Castle

It was supposed to be a prison for the baddest of the bad, an inescapable complex for POWS that had escaped every other jail... But the inmates didn't get the memo. Dave reports on the many escape attempts from Colditz Castle, a formidabble Second World War POW camp in Germany. Tunnels, Gliders, Disguises, False Walls, Fake Keys and more... These are some of the most daring and intriciate escapes ever attempted.Support the show and get rewards like bonus episodes:www.patreon.com/DoGoOnPod- Submit a topic idea directly to the hat: http://bit.ly/DoGoOnHat Twitter: @DoGoOnPodInstagram: @DoGoOnPodFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DoGoOnPod/Email us: [email protected]  REFERENCES AND FURTHER READING:Great Doco from Timeline, Part One:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5HNWQWKEEghttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/1556304/General-Alain-Le-Ray.htmlhttps://www.uncommon-travel-germany.com/colditz.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=40&v=uQLXSdLU5Zshttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/books/societybookreviews/3574423/From-Colditz-to-the-Commons.htmlhttp://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/naziprison/cold_15.htmlhttp://www.hambo.org/hazelwood/view_man.php?id=236https://theescapeline.blogspot.com.au/2015/04/colditz-peter-allan-escape.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_attempts_to_escape_Oflag_IV-C Hosted on Acast.
