Doubilese and Family Flee Through Occupied France
Fragmented memoir fragment describes a family's perilous escape from occupied France. They recount fears for relatives in the zone, a six day cut, and a journey through bridges over the Loire near Angers that were to be blown up. They endure cattle cars, limited tickets, and forced stops before reaching a station where trains were halted. They question whether to trust a promoter of weakness or embrace production, amid the site and spirit of America.
