Can't think of of a hard one at the moment, so here's a very easy question.
Which actor in the film 'The Great Escape' was in real life a POW of the Germans during WW2

Thanks, redcoat !
Still with escape movies, which Hollwood actor featured in a famous 1950's POW-camp movie, and in real life participated as a Sergeant in the Ardennes, Rhineland, and Central European theaters before being wounded near the Weser River in April 1945 and being awarded the Silver Star and Purple Heart ?

Correct. From my point of view, this movie is better than the negative ratings and comments on IMDB indicate.
Your turn.
