Between 1940 and 1944 dozens of French men and some women were trained in industrial sabotage at Brickendonbury Manor, near Hertford, UK before being infiltrated into France on top secret missions to destroy transport, industrial and telecommunications targets. They included Raymond Basset, Madeleine Bayard, Georges Berge, M. Bernard, Raymond Cabard, Francis Cammaerts, Marcel Clech, Elizabeth Devereaux-Rochester, J. Forman, John Farmer, Georges, Albert Guerisse (Pat O'Leary), Andre Jarrot, Jules Lesage, J. le Tac, Bob Maloubier, Claude Peri, Petit-Laurent, Jean Pillet, Harry Ree, J. Renault, Charles Rechenmann, Robert Rodriguez, Maurice Southgate, Andre Varnier, Nancy Wake and Pearl Witherington. Numerous other French men and women took part in sabotage activities and their contribution to the country's liberation needs to be acknowledged. See more
