Originally created for Patek Philippe clients online. This a story of hope within our feature documentary Stalag Luft III - One Man's Story told by my Uncle Charles Woehrle, WWII U.S. Army Air Force Bombardier. He was shot down May 29, 1943, captured by the Nazi's and held a prisoner in Stalag Luft III for two long years; the same prisoner of war camp depicted in the film The Great Escape.
