@aussieskiff Thanks for the comments. I made another song about The Great Escape which tells more about "Big X", but have not yet done a video. I will hopefully have it done soon. Maybe I will check out that book you mentioned too. Thanks.
Roger Bushall as played by Richard Atteborough in the film The Great Escape was Big X and was one of the Fifty murdered by the Krouts
