Special attention for Winston's nephew
The first civilian prisoner at the Colditz prison during World War II was Giles Romilly, a nephew of Prime Minister Winston Churchill. The orders concerning him came directly from Hitler himself:
1. The Kommandant and Security Officer answer for Romilly's security with their heads. 2. His security is to be assured by any and every exceptional measure you care to take.
(from Colditz, by Henry Chancellor)
