Albert Foiret

During occupied Belgium, members of a resistance group called Lifeline organized the return of RAF pilots to Great Britain. Their leader is Albert Foiret. Their base of operations is located in  cafe-restaurant : "Le Candide" on the Grand Place in Brussels. The complete story is told in the BBC series "Secret Army" over three seasons. Check on You Tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhe_ps0R5uA

Since it's Christine's favorite WWII series, I hope this will make a nice birthday present.
