In 1914, Margriet Ballegeer, a young Belgian woman, bravely joined the resistance to combat the German occupation of her country during World War I. Despite the risks, she became a key figure in a network of spies, aiding young men's escape to the Allies using stolen identity papers. Margriet, just 24, acted as a courier, using her shop as a cover to transmit crucial intelligence. Arrested twice, she spent six months in prison but remained dedicated to the cause. In 1917, she was sentenced to death for spying after being betrayed by a German recruit.
