The Resistance

With almost all of Europe captured, Hitler ordered that all newspapers, radio brodcasts and mant other public doucumants to be taken over. With the newspapers and broadcasts, they controlled what people heard. With this type of persecution, many underground groups were formed. To help these forbidden groups, England smuggled weapons, poison, radios, and typewriters (which all of these were outlawed highly) in to them.

















Many weaons like the ones pictured above were smuggled in by airdrop using a single engine Lysander(below). These planes would drop tons of guns and radios to help those underground.

The resistance went on untill the end of the war.

Hi, john.
I think the blog is great. I was trying to vote on may 2nd- but the poll had already shut down. I Think that your blog has helped me some, but has raised more questions than it has answered. what do you use for research.
