The Big Break

"The Big Break" tells the remarkable true story of the most successful mass Allied escape from a German POW camp in World War II, focusing on a daring tunnel and the daring efforts of American and Canadian prisoners. As the camp is transformed and the Red Army advances, U.S. Army officers undertake bold escapes to reunite with Soviet forces, facing numerous dangers along the way. The narrative highlights the bravery of the prisoners, the help of brave Poles, and the relentless efforts to secure their freedom, all chronicled by military historian Stephen Dando-Collins.
