Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

In early 1943, a captive RAF officer, Squadron Leader Roger Bushell, who came to be known as Big "X," planned a mass escape. He planned to dig three tunnels to get 200 men out in a single attempt. On Friday 24 March 1944, they executed their plan of escape but they encountered a problem with the last tunnel named Harry. The exist trap door was frozen solid and it delayed the escape for an hour and a half. An even bigger problem faced by them was that the tunnel had come up short.
