Finally we have Paddy on video! A kind soul has posted the movie 11th Day on You Tube. Part seven deals with the kidnap of General Kreipe and includes a detailed explanation of the famous Mount Ida Horace moment: “Ach so, Herr Major”.
I have found all parts of the film from You Tube and have embedded them on a special new page Video.
Why not put your feet up and enjoy the whole movie which covers the brave Cretan resistance and the part that Paddy, Moss and others played in it?
But to start you off here is Patrick Leigh Fermor recounting for you the events of what we now know as Ill Met by Moonlight.
Visit the movie 11th Day site.
