“Leutnant Franz von Werra. Adjutant of II./JG 3. Later captured by the British and became famous as the only German airman to make a ‘home run’. The epic story of his escape across Canada and the USA was the subject of a film starring Hardy Kruger. Shown here with Simba, the Gruppe’s mascot.”
I haven’t seen the film, but this is one seriously epic story.

Wow. Reading the Wikipedia article I will fully agree: Epic.
