The Star (Guernsey) dated Wednesday May 21st 1941
The inhabited islands of the Channel Islands are Jersey, Guernsey, Alderney, Sark, Herm, Jethou, Brecqhou and Lihou, and they were all occupied by the German Army from the summer of 1940 to May 1945.
Guernsey was occupied from 30th June 1940 to 9th May 1945. Some 17000 people (mostly women and children) evacuated before the invasion leaving about 25000.
This single sheet (folded to give 4 pages) edition is from just over a year later and rather than try to pick things out I thought I might as well post the whole issue.
