Yes, a tragic story. I wonder where Jones hid the bolt?.
Oz.
Always been looking for a copy of that movie " Cowra breakout"
An Oz TV production from a while back (30 years now) that didn't have any major stars in it-not much chance it'll get a full release now-Crawfords were releasing a lot of their back catalogue but mostly the long running stuff people of an age remember like 'The Sullivans'.
G'day Guys
I'm a little late on this one here's a period map of the area.
Still the best book on the subject to this day. First released in 1979.
You can get the TV mini series off Ebay
Grew up on a diet of "The Sullivans". If Crawfords didn't want an arm an a leg for the DVD's I would be adding them to my collection for sure. It was so sad when Burt Duggan stepped on that landmine in N Africa after escaping Crete.
All the best fella's
