As such, he gives a unique portrait of being a prisoner of the Germans.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe gives graphic descriptions of the day to day life in POW camps and his tasks and experiences as a medical orderly over the five year period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe also gives a vivid account of what turned out to be a forced three month, one thousand mile march, from Poland into Germany in the height of winter towards the end of the war and his experiences as a medical orderly. Out of the three thousand who started the march, he writes, only seven hundred survived.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pen \u0026amp; Sword Military\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781036121242\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168","brand":"Vic Markham","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51474184044725,"sku":"9781036121242","price":33.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_91eef1d8-8fe4-4be0-b069-fa8881716194.jpg?v=1754405126","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/no-escape-the-memoirs-of-a-pow-in-stalag-xxa-9781036121242","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
