November 1940.  There was a lot going on!

We continue to follow what is happening to Symes & Nicolle and those that helped them.  The confiscation of wireless sets and more.

Luftwaffe aircraft downed during the month including one that crashed on Crevichon.

To see all the pictures and documents we talked about head to this link.

You can find out more about the occupation on my website Island Fortress here.

The books we referred to are:

Guernsey Occupation Diaries, 1940-45 - Author: Douglas Ord (ed. John Nettles)

The Commando Who Came Home To Spy – William Bell

We also mentioned the Channel Islands Occupation Society.  You can find their website here.

Thanks to Gnet Radio for recording the podcast and thanks to Jim Delbridge for the use of his song ‘5 to 7’ as our theme.
