In the late fall of 1940, a troopship loaded with new pilots fresh out of primary flight school arrived in Vancouver, Canada. Porokoru Patapu “John” Pohe, first Māori trained as a pilot to serve in the Royal New Zealand Air Force, was amongst them. Captured as a prisoner of war, Pohe became involved with the plot for a mass escape from prison camp Stalag Luft III in Żagań, Poland. The 1963 epic film, “The Great Escape,” immortalized the event.

Le final du récit le plus intime de Tardi. Après son retour du Stalag, René Tardi donne naissance à son fils Jacques en 1946, puis, toujours militaire, il est envoyé en Allemagne dans la zone occupée par la France. Toute la famille va l’y rejoindre, et s’installer dans une caserne. C’est là que le petit Jacques vivra ses premiers souvenirs, entre ruines et camps militaires. Puis ce sera le retour à la campagne française, près de Valence, ou entre station-service et garage, son père essaie malgré tout de boucler les fins de mois. Avec ce dernier volume, Tardi boucle le récit paternel et ouvre une porte sur son enfance, sans toutefois tomber vraiment dans l’autobiographie.
