Madame Arlette Gondree-Pritchett
Arlette was a six-year-old child when British Airborne Forces landed at Pegasus Bridge and made the Gondree family cafe the very first building to be liberated in France, at exactly 23.20 hours, June 5th 1944. Fierce fighting was still going on and wounded British troops were soon being looked after in the cafe which over the years has become a shrine to returning veterans and is still owned by the same family. During the war the Gondree family were at great risk as Arlettes mother was from Alsace, which spoke a dialect of German, and this enabled her to understand conversations between German soldiers in the cafe and hand over the information to the resistance. 60 years later all British visitors are assured of a warm welcome at Cafe Gondree.
