George Beck: February 9, 1945

This period of waiting is the most trying time of my prison life, although it has been a very active day. Russian Air Force visited here four times bombing and machine gunning. Were patiently awaiting this great moment of release, we must take a chance on being shelled and killed. It doesn’t seem possible we’re so near to freedom and yet so far, roll on.

—George Beck,1st Battalion The Duke of Wellington's Regiment, prisoner of war (diary)
