Michael Johnson Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Latest purchase, a Third type, 1964 dated French railwayman's medal to O. LE BOYDRE. Geaneanet turns up Octave Le Boydre, born 1920, died 2013. A Google search turns up a German book: Gestapo-Verbrechen im Landkreis Burgdorf und das Schwurgerichtsverfahren in Lüneburg von 1950: Eine historische Annäherung und Einordnung (Gestapo crimes in the district of Burgdorf and the jury trial in Lüneburg in 1950: A historical approach and classification). It seems Le Boydre fell in love with a German secretary, and as such relationships were illegal, they fell foul of the police. They reconnected after the war and "lived happily ever after". There is a preview on Google Books, https://books.google.ca/books?id=M4YKEAAAQBAJ&pg=PA119&lpg=PA119&dq=luneburg+1950+"elisabeth+hartmann"+"octave+le+boydre"&source=bl&ots=-gcB7G0qCG&sig=ACfU3U1HxosDTBSzu7f7G_U4y6Ltojs4Mg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwit7bWqjN34AhVjIUQIHeUYCSIQ6AF6BAgCEAM#v=onepage&q=luneburg 1950 "elisabeth hartmann" "octave le boydre"&f=false unfortunately two pages I need to understand the story (116 and 118) are not included. Can anyone help with copies, or even a precis of the content? Thank you, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
