Squadron Leader Peter Tunstall

Gents,


Squadron Leader Peter Tunstall, who has died aged 94, was an inveterate escaper who spent longer in solitary confinement than any other Allied PoW; he was court-martialled by the Germans on five occasions and became one of the most notable inmates of the infamous Colditz Castle.
