About this listen
Two incredible escape stories from World War II—one ending in tragedy, the other in triumph.
Michael James Casey, a British RAF officer, played a key role in the legendary ‘Great Escape’ from Stalag Luft III but was tragically executed after his recapture. Meanwhile, Rolf Magener, a German internee in India, used his fluency in English and an audacious disguise to travel 1,500 miles undetected, ultimately reaching freedom in Japanese-held Burma.
This episode explores their motivations, escape tactics, and the vastly different fates they meet. It is a gripping tale of courage, deception, and survival.
