For the soldiers of World War II there was nothing more terrifying than falling into the clutches of the enemy. However, the instinct for freedom triggered some of the most compelling dramas of the War. Using rare archive footage and interviews with survivors we bring to life these daring escapes from Nazi-occupied territory and POW camps. 'Escape from Arizona' follows the story of a daring mission by a group of Nazi officers held captive in Arizona. It was the largest POW escape in the United States where twelve German officers and thirteen submariners cut loose from Papago Park Prison in Arizona. Episode uses archive footage and interviews with former POWs, and is accompanied by a complete look at the courageous resistance movements throughout occupied Europe.
