Additional Information

With their close proximity to the French mainland the Channel Islands were isolated and undefendable. On 1st July 1940 German troops arrived to take the surrender of Jersey and for the next five years Jersey, Guernsey, Sark and Alderney became the only part of the British Isles to be occupied during the Second World War.
