The diary entries at that site almost made me cry, very sad way to go for such brave people.

They overshot the return to home base by 400 miles.....
That
is a rather disturbing thought imo

@Airedale The diary doesn't really hint at much, simply "got lost". I hope they make a film about this.

@Airedale They thought they were over the Mediterranean sea when they bailed out, not realising it was the Sahara desert.

@pxr5 I agree, if they can make an amazing movie (127 hours) about a man losing his arm but who survives in the desert about as long as these poor souls lasted, then imagine the movie that could be made about these guys?

@The Judge Exactly, im no film maker but id love to tell this story. Reading those diaries and seeing their bodies lying there is just heartbreaking, ive got so much respect for soldiers from that era, and then you read in the paper that some smack head has beaten a war vet to death in his own home for £10.
