Elsie Maréchal was an English woman who became active in the Belgian Resistance during World War II. As a member of the Comet Line, she helped downed Allied airmen evade capture by German forces. After being betrayed in November 1942, she was sentenced to death and subjected to the 'Nacht und Nebel' policy designed to make such opponents of the Nazis 'disappear' in prison camps. She survived to tell her story to her family back in England and to receive awards for her work. Two of her children, Elsie and Robert, also survived prison, but her husband Georges was executed.

quote	They didn’t shoot the women. We were to die of misery, hunger and exhaustion. I felt that we had a horrible devil following us. But when we arrived at Ravensbrück, it was the worst. The first thing I saw was a cart with all the dead piled on it. Their arms and legs hanging out, and mouths and eyes wide open. They reduced us to nothing. We didn’t even feel like we had the value of cattle. You worked and you died. (en)
