⁍ Any other time and the daring trio would have wound up dead in the frigid Pacific or somewhere in the San Francisco Bay

Thanks for this wfgodot, I've just spent half an hour reading about Alcatraz - something I didn't know much about before.

I'd like to think these men DID escape as they were ingenious in their plan, but I'd really love to find out for sure what happened next!
