Close enough to France to see the shore on a clear day, Jersey became the one thing no other British community ever became: occupied. For five years the German flag flew over a British island, and tens of thousands of ordinary Britons lived under the rule of the enemy their country was fighting. Demilitarised and abandoned in 1940, the island was then slowly hollowed out β its food stripped, its radios seized, and its hills bored through with tunnels dug by slave labourers.
