WW II Reports

18 year old French Resistance fighter Simone Segouin captured 25 Nazis during the fall of Chartres


Simone Segouin, also known by her nom de guerre Nicole Minet (born October 3, 1925), is a former French Resistance fighter who served in the Francs-Tireurs et Partisans group. Among her first acts of resistance was stealing a bicycle from a German military administrator, which she then used to help carry message.[ She went on to take part in large-scale or otherwise perilous missions, such as capturing German troops, derailing trains, and blowing up bridges.
