Timeline

1914

Madeleine Passot (28 August 1914 – 19 September 2009) was a French communist who worked for the French Resistance as a liaison agent during World War II (1939–45).

She was arrested and deported to the Auschwitz concentration camp, but survived the war and returned to France.

Madeleine Passot was born on 28 August 1914 in the 15th arrondissement of Paris.

At the time of her birth her father, Jean Baptiste Passot, was in prison for having demonstrated against World War I as a follower of Jean Jaurès.

Her father worked in a variety of jobs.

He apprenticed as a baker, and later worked in a metal foundry and for automobile factories, including Talbot and then Citroën.

Madeleine grew up in Boulogne-Billancourt.

1936

1939

With the approach of World War II (1939–45) she was given the job of secretly preparing for the survival of the party if it were made illegal, as seemed likely.

This included arranging hiding places for the party records, couriers and mailboxes.

After the outbreak of war the party was dissolved, and during the Phoney War period Madeleine Passot's activity increased.

She helped in organizing the Resistance forces with Jacques Duclos and Arthur Dallidet.

She worked as a liaison agent under the aliases "Lucienne Langlois" or "Betty".

Madeleine Passot traveled throughout France recruiting new members of the communist resistance.

She would often sit beside Germans on trains in the expectation that they would gallantly protect the elegant young woman, unaware that she was carrying money and papers hidden in her luggage and handbag.

1942

Dallidet was recognized talking to a woman in a cafe beside the Reuilly metro station on the evening on 28 February 1942.

He was arrested, taken to La Santé Prison, chained, handcuffed and severely beaten.

He did not reveal any information, but had been carrying a long list of names and addresses.

This led to other arrests including "Betty" (Madeleine Passot), Dallidet's most important liaison officer.

Madeleine Passot was arrested in Paris in March 1942 and imprisoned in Fort de Romainville.

Further names and addresses were found in her apartment.

She was carrying false identity papers in the name of "Lucienne Langlois", and retained this identity throughout her subsequent imprisonment.

On arrival her identity number, 31668, was tattooed on the inside of her lower left arm, one of a series from the transport number 31,000 that had brought the group of women to the camp.

Danielle Casanova, who was a trained dentist, introduced Madeleine Passot as a nurse.

She worked in appalling conditions during a typhus epidemic at the camp in April–May 1943, during which Casanova died.
