So just watched the last 2 episodes of Secret Army. The bravery of the people who operated #cometline and other escape routes was incredible.
Next on the cards is another great series from the bbc when it made them. Is Terry Nations #Survivors
The Comet Line helped over 776 Allied airmen evade capture, guiding them through occupied Belgium, France, and Spain with a network of over 3,000 civilian resistance members.

A regular at evasion line memorial events and still known by her wartime codename 'Nadine', Andrée was a lovely person, with time for everyone and a lovely sense of humour. She wrote a memoir a few years ago. https://t.co/oEmcinYwAJ

Elsie Marechal was only 16yrs old when she started working for the Comet Line in WWII, where she rescued airmen and troops.
In the 'Marechal Affair' in November 1942, her entire family was betrayed to the Gestapo. She survived three years in Ravensbruck.
Passed away aged 100.

¡MARAVILLOSO DÍA EL DE HOY!
Hemos llevado a mi madre de 91 años a su terruño inaugurar el memorial local.
En este video de 2020 de @xaloatbxaloa mi tío Justo Mihura (min. 25:00-28:00) y yo (min. 17:53-24:50 y 28:28 hasta el fin) contábamos la historia:

👑Ep 142👑 Kelley covers #RebeccaLukens who rose to the challenge of running her own iron works company after the deaths of her father and husband. Emily covers #HenrietteMoniqueHanotte, a teen who joined the #CometLine & smuggled stranded Allied soldiers to safety during #WWII.
Monique Hanotte worked for the #CometLine and #MI9 - one of my dear veterans. An incredibly brave woman. #LestWeForget RIP
#MoniqueHanotte escorted over 100 escaping Allies from Belgium on the #CometLine in #WW2 #obituary | Register | The Times https://t.co/pPqEs76oGi
Fantastic pic! The #CometLine was the largest escape network during #ww2, helping almost 800 Allied airmen shot down over occupied Belgium evade capture by the Germans and return to Britain. Incredibly brave people.
The earliest photo of the founders of the Comet Line, including Dedee de Jongh, July 1941 #MI9 #CometLine #heroines #WW2
