Valençay SOE Memorial
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Valençay SOE Memorial is a monument to the members of the Special Operations Executive F Section who lost their lives for the liberation of France. The memorial was unveiled in the town of Valençay in the Indre département of France on May 6, 1991, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the despatch of F Section's first agent to France. It was designed by Elizabeth Lucas Harrison, who originally gave it the name 'Spirit of Partnership'. Dedicated by the Minister of Veterans Affairs for France and the Queen Mother, Elizabeth, the memorial's Roll of Honour lists the names of the 91 men and 13 women members of the SOE who gave their lives for France's freedom.
