Tuesday 23rd March 2004 -- Great Escaper Jimmy James in the forest that now grows on the site of Stalag Luft III. Now aged 89, he never expected to return to the site of his escape 60 years later.
My dad survived that camp, too. Living well is the best revenge. A bit different than Daisy Buchanan but my dad lived to 75, had four children, four grandchildren and a pretty happy life. RIP all those from the Greatest Generation.
