The Great Escape - Denys Street

Peter Sinclair joined us to recount of Denys Street, the son of the Air Ministry’s Permanent Secretary at the time. He was both a tunneller and a ‘penguin’ involved in dispersal who, along with his escape partners, Birkland and Brodrick, was recaptured only miles from the camp.
