Sean Londgen has conducted numerous interviews and reveals a new
perspective on life under the Nazis that has long been forgotten
and replaced by the myth of Colditz and The Great Escape. Between
1939 and 1945 almost 200,000 British and Commonwealth Servicemen
were held as Prisoners of War in Germany. Every Allied soldier
under the rank of Sergeant was forced to work 12 hour shifts, six
days a week, cutting timber, quarrying stone, carving ice from
frozen rivers and clearing bombsites. It drove the soldiers to the
brink, in which survival was a daily trial. Many starved to death
or died from disease, others were killed in accidents or at the
hands of their guards.
