Kopenhagen

On the initiative of the Ministry of the Interior of the Polish government in exile in London and the Polish diplomatic mission in Stockholm, the underground organisation Felicja was established in spring 1941. In August 1943, its management made contact with Second-Lieutenant Lucjan Masłocha, who after escaping from the prisoner-of-war camp Oflag X C in Lübeck was hiding in quarters in Copenhagen organised by members of Felicja, and was then transferred to Sweden, where he underwent special intelligence and sabotage training. On the 11th of November 1943, he returned to Denmark as a Polish intelligence officer a.k.a. "Mały", where he conducted underground activity. His closest associate was Anna Luise Mogensen (called Lone, which is actually the name on the tombstone), daughter of a Danish citizen, director of a cement plant in the Polish town of Klucze. She was a photographer by profession and took pictures of selected facilities as well as prepared copies of secret documents. On the 31st of December 1944 Lucjan Masłocha and Lone Mogensen got married. At the beginning of January 1944, the Gestapo got a lead of the Masłocha couple hiding in Hellerup. On the night of the 2nd to 3rd of January both of them were killed in a fight with their persecutors. After the war, their bodies were exhumed and placed in the honorary plot of the heroes of Danish resistance at Mindelunden cemetery in Rywang, where 108 victims of Nazi Germany rest.
