Not sure if this has been covered before but I noticed in the DM
that Flight Lieutenant Les Brodrick who took part in the
Great escape passed away.

Thought it might be of interest being RAF.

RIP Les. Glad to see you lived a full and meaningful life. When I get on my Triumph I will think of you and your comrades depicted in that inaccurate movie - hopefully avoiding a recreation of the jump across the Swiss border!

Lest we forget...
