Comet Line
The Comet Line was a network established during World War II to help Allied soldiers escape from occupied Europe, particularly from Nazi-occupied Belgium and France. It was created by a group of brave individuals, including members of the Belgian resistance, who provided safe passage to those fleeing the German forces. The line facilitated the movement of downed airmen and other escapees to safety in neutral countries like Spain.
The operation relied on a series of safe houses and trusted contacts, allowing escapees to travel through dangerous territories. The Comet Line played a crucial role in the broader efforts of the Allied Forces to undermine Nazi control and support those fighting against the regime.
