Description
Good and bad sides of war experience told by veterans. The Sidi Azeiz story... breakout at Minqar Qaim... the Benghazi nightmare... escape from a POW camp in Italy and sanctuary with Italian civilians... betrayal to the Germans and Stalags in Nazi Germany... the resourcefulness of POWs. Tony Vercoe's story probes the shadows of war - it is a haunting contribution to New Zealand history.
