French resistance heroine Solange Alexandre (104) passed away

Alexandre, born on September 9, 1922, in Mamers, France, joined the resistance in 1941 after being inspired by Charles de Gaulle. Under the codename Corlay, she delivered secret messages in the Le Mans area. In 1944, she co-founded the Pas-de-Boeuf resistance group with her husband, contributing to the liberation of Touraine. Despite refusing the Legion of Honor twice post-war, she accepted it in 2024 to ensure her legacy. President Macron commemorated her, emphasizing her duty to freedom.
