Rosie’s Diary

• 27th Monday March 1943• Dear Diary today is the first day of us being

in the military area in France. The parachute jump was really fun even though that we almost got caught and killed. In the beginning me and Eugene could not find Edith at all . It seemed she had landed slightly further away from us. We were pretty shocked when we couldn’t find her because the area was infested with Getaspo officers. I hope we find her fast.

• Dear diary 29th Wednesday March 1943

• Today we found out where Edith i it seems she has been kidnapped by the Getaspo officers. I hope they aren’t doing really hard interrogation. I am pretty sure she won’t give any valuable information to Germans because I know she would never do that. We know she is in the German base near where we landed. The base is too heavily guarded for us to retrieve her we will just have to wait and see.

• Dear Diary 31st Friday March 1943

• Today we found out that Edith will be transported somewhere to be executed. She will be transported from a truck which will have to be engaged. I don’t think they will be taking the road which is full of rubble and debris. We will stop the truck when it takes the alternate route. My hopes are that they won’t have a really heavily guarded truck. But we will have to wait and see.

• Dear Diary 2nd May Sunday 1943• We intercepted the truck by killing the German officer

inside and injuring the driver. When we found Edith in the truck she was heavily bruised and she had the stench of urine. We knew she needed medical attendance. Eugene knew a way to an old friends house. He knew a really safe way to Madame Lisle house. Sadly the safe route was the sewage system. It was bad to take Edith through that path because her wounds would become infected if she went through the sewers. But since there was no safer way to get to Madame Lisle house this was best for her.

• Dear Diary 3rd May Monday 1943• After we reached Madame Lisle’s house. Eugene had to help Madame

Lisle chop wood. After me and Eugene helped Madame Lisle’s house in order, she and I gave Edith Medical attention. We made her wounds slightly better. Madame Lisle told us that she would be having German visitors who would want to buy her horses. When the Germans came near 11 o clock they wanted to search the house. Eugene was expecting this.. He brought out a machine gun and handed me a pistol. He just went out and sprayed bullets at the Germans. Most of them went for cover some few were not so fortunate. Most of the fighting was over before Madame Lisle found a guard going to kill Eugene with a knife. She quickly stabbed him with a knife. The German started squealing and fell on the floor. Suddenly he quickly got up shot Eugene and stabbed Madame Lisle which ultimately led to her death. I don’t know why but Eugene said he’d rather die than bleed to death. So he took a poison pill and killed himself because there was no chance of his survival. Me and Edith were pretty sad because Eugene was a really brave person,but what he did know was very cowardly.

• Dear diary 4th May Tuesday 1943• After the German Ambush, me and Edith had to

take horses and head off before other German investigators came. We had to go to Paris but, with Edith who could barely walk it wasn’t as easy because I was not even half as strong as Eugene. it was also really boring because Eugene would keep saying really funny jokes. Fortunately for me the horses were taking the weight of my bag of weapons and Edith. I just couldn't get over the fact that Eugene was dead.
