Which is pretty ironic since she'd be stealing their bike and steal 2 and capture 25 of them.]]> 2019-03-12 14:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340433856 When joining the resistance... croldan_20 https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340435391 Simone Segouin had to use a fake name (which was Nicole Minet) in order to protect her family if Segouin ever got caught by Germans.]]> 2019-03-12 14:31:42 UTC https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340435391 One of her first acts in the resistance... croldan_20 https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340437777 Was that she stole a bike from a German military administrator, and re-sprayed the bike to use it for delivering messages and stake out targets.

Later on, she'd be involved with blowing up bridges, armed actions against enemy convoys and trains, attacks against enemy detachments, and other acts of sabotage.]]> 2019-03-12 14:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340437777 During the fall of Chartres... croldan_20 https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340440361 Segouin killed 2 Germans and captured 25.]]> 2019-03-12 14:39:11 UTC https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340440361 After the war... croldan_20 https://padlet.com/croldan_20/ue3zzgdhws8/wish/340441049 Segouin was awarded the Croix de Guerre and was promoted to Lieutenant.
