My recollection of the stories are probably a little scewed over time, but i do remember basically hanging on every thing he was telling us and that the majority of us were in absolute awe.

As well you should be! The real history of the building of that tunnel is INSANE! I cant even imagine. The work, the dedication, the discipline.
Its like...I've told this story before, but I used to have a client (RIP Jacques) who was a French Jew in Auschwitz. I went to a lecture he gave at the Jewish centre and yeah...you're clinging to every word.
Its madness what some of those people went through.
