Gilberte was eventually deported, first to Mauthausen and then to Ravensbrück. With over 700 members, the JADE-FITZROY circuit saw 217 arrests; 82 of its members were either killed or died in the camps. As Gilberte discovered, the fact that the circuit members worked for the British made life even more difficult in the camps – not because of the Nazis, but because of the other inmates. Each group of résistants, in particular the Communists and the Gaullists, would look after themselves. The MI6 agents, seen as being outside the Resistance, were told to ask instead for help and support from imprisoned British soldiers and operatives.655 In the hell of the camps, the situation was so appalling that even the basic solidarity between people fighting on the same side broke down. For those unfortunate enough to experience these terrible conditions, this was one more reason to pray for the Allies and the Resistance to smash the Nazis once and for all.
