: Hi!
: Ralph Palmer was taken in by Eugene Hupins family in Belgium and hidden from the Germans.
: Eugene was betrayed by two informers and arrested by the Gestapo and he were beaten up and questioned,at the same time the Gestapo raided his house and captured Ralph Palmer.
: Eugene Hupin was executed by the Gestapo and his wife was jailed. Mrs Hupin was later released and died in 1979.
: Palmer became a POW but survived and died in a Veterans Hospital in California in 1983.
: Regards
