Men Of Colditz

COLDITZ PRISONERS WERE THE "BAD BOYS..."

The ones that managed to escape other prison camps, only to be recaptured by Hitler's army and entombed in the imposing medieval fortress that was Colditz Castle.

Here are the German captors and the infamous S.S., the indestructible prisoners of war and the gruelling conditions that went to make Oflag VIIC the most feared and respected of any P.O.W.camp.

And here again is a story of brave and red-blooded action, of the sort of heroism that makes god of mere men.
