Err doesn't that get ever so blurry nutloose?
There's a picture of the actual shooting/murder/execution of one of the SF teams of German partroopers on here somewhere (on the net). The ones who were dropped in behind lines (in Allied uniform) to wreck mischief during the Ardenne Counter Offensive. Its a well know tale. Caught, tried, shot by American Firing Squad (but hushed up until after the war).
What's the difference, really? Both brave sets of young lads doing as ordered or expected.
Anyway I'm drifting the thread too much. Those RAF escapees were brave beyond words. RIP.
