        Last Paths to Freedom. French Girl Guides in resistance to Nazi Germany

        by Thomas Seiterich

        Summer 1940. Nazi Germany annexes Alsace, but not without resistance: in the Catholic parish of St. Jean, very close to the Great Synagogue, six French Girl Guides opened an underground border crossing for opponents of the regime, Jews, Communists and the military. They explored and found secret routes across the Vosges to the west, and south to Switzerland. By the time the Gestapo picked them up in 1942, they had brought around 500 people to safety. Freisler tried them in 1943 and sentenced six of them to death by guillotine. Pope Pius XII demanded that the women be spared. And Hitler did indeed pardon them – with the proviso that they were not allowed to know. They all survived.
