And the ventilation shaft, ingeniously crafted from used\u00a0 powdered milk containers known as\u00a0 Klim Tins, remained in working order. Scattered throughout the tunnel, which is 30ft below ground, were bits of old metal buckets, hammers and crowbars which were used to hollow out the route.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">A total of 600 prisoners worked on three tunnels at the same time. They were nicknamed Tom, Dick and Harry and were just 2ft square for most of their length.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">It was on the night of March 24 and 25, 1944, that 76 Allied airmen escaped\u00a0 through Harry. Barely a third of the 200 prisoners \u2013 many in fake German uniforms and civilian outfits and carrying false identity papers \u2013 who were meant to slip away managed to leave before the alarm was\u00a0 raised when escapee number 77 was spotted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55993 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Tunnel-back-in-time-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"893\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Tunnel vision: A tunnel reconstruction showing the trolley system, tried out, below, by Frank, 89<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55994 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/websitedesigns.com.au\/elankanew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Tunnel-back-in-time-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"344\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"artSplitter fff-pic\">\n<p id=\"ext-gen28\" class=\"imageCaption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Bitter-sweet memories: Gordie King, 91, made an emotional return to Stalag Luft III<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span id=\"ext-gen29\" style=\"font-size: 20px; color: #000000;\">Only three made it back to Britain.

The team also found another tunnel, called George, whose exact position had not been charted. It was never used as the 2,000 prisoners were forced to march to other camps as the Red Army approached in January 1945. Watching the excavation was Gordie King, 91, an RAF radio operator, who was 140th in line to use Harry and therefore missed out. \u2018This brings back such bitter-sweet memories,\u2019 he said as he wiped away tears. \u2018I\u2019m amazed by what they\u2019ve found.\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tunnel back in time: Revealed after 67 years, the passage used in Great Escape-By ANDREW LEVY Unearthed: The entrance to the original &#8216;Harry&#8217; tunnel, which lay untouched for almost seven decades Source:DailyMail UK Untouched for almost seven decades, the tunnel used in the Great Escape has finally been unearthed.
