French Resistant Codes on 78's????? |

Received this email a few days ago...
Hi,
When you list a lot of stuff on ebay from the area of Vichy France and pre war some things pass you by. We have a 78rpm record that has Chauve Souris a Pastorale Moyen written on the sleeve. Why would someone right the Bat Pastoral Way on a record. Maybe, just maybe, this record was part of a messaging system used by the French Resistance as a code. We have lots of others listed one says pei moja dewotschka which means With Capricorn ah I heard the card. Maybe its just my imagination
During research I found your site and the discussions and thought you may be interested.
Best regards
From the UK

In the Face of Obstacles - by Cheryl Frizzell |

Proud to say that one of "our own", has just published a book regarding her father. Congrats, Cheryl. Can't wait to get my copy this week. Thanks for sending that to me.
In the Face of Obstacles
Her father was with the 34th Inf Div
Here's a description (taken from Amazon.com)
In the Face of Obstacles is the true story of a heavy machine gunner in World War II. It chronicles my father's experience as told by soldiers who were there with him, by photographs including his own, and by his regiment narrative histories. Put them all together, and a detailed account of their daily lives unravels with boot camp dirt in the green hills of Alabama; a seasick troop ship across the Atlantic Ocean to Casablanca, where "A-rabs ain't got cigarettes" and camels stink; a dusty boxcar ride across North Africa, where people live underground; hardcore training camps in the desert of Algeria, where cognac doubles as lighter fluid; and a thousand miles of frontline combat in a rugged country called Italy. It is all through the eyes of "the infantrymen who would likely be wounded or killed."
