Sample Letter to the Editor
WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN !
The fiftieth anniversary of her posthumous award of the GEORGE CROSS came up on April 5th, 1999. Although it would have been nice to
see a stamp by then, we're realistically hoping for an issue in the early part of the new Millenium.
The Following is a brief biography of
Princess Noor:
Noor-un-nisa Inayat Khan, George Cross,
MBE, Croix de Guerre
The birth of Noor Inayat Khan took place on January 2nd, 1914 in the Kremlin; a strange place
indeed, for an Indian Princess and direct descendant of Tipu Sultan, the last Muslim
sovereign of South India. Apparently, the Tsar Nicholas II, his country troubled by internal
unrest and impending war, was seeking spiritual solutions to the problems facing
his regime. Consequently, the influential Gregory Rasputin, invited the father of Noor, who was a Mohammedan Mystic, to
visit Holy Mother Russia, in order to share with the Emperor's family and court, his Sufistic
doctrines of peace and love. After a time, however, prompted by a concern for the safety of their family, Pir Inayat Khan
and his American wife, the Begum Sharada Ameena (formerly Ora-Ray Baker of Albuquerque, N.M., a distant cousin of Mary Baker Eddy, the originator of Christian Science) decided to depart Moscow
during the events leading up to the Bolshevik
Revolution of 1917.
Following many adventures, they arrived in Paris, where Noor enrolled in the Ecole Normale de Musique, eventually
gaining employment as a writer of children's stories for Paris Radio. The
arrival of World War II, however, again caused this peaceful family to flee
their adoptive country.
Settling in London, Noor, wanting to do her part in the overthrow of Totalitarianism, became an Assistant Section
Officer in the Women's Auxiliary Air Force, seconded to the Women's
Transport Service. Her familiarity with France and fluency in the language were qualities very much in demand by the British War Office at the time. The continent had been occupied by Axis forces and
the future held in store several more precarious years for the beleaguered occupants of Hitler's 'Fortress Europe'.
After undergoing extensive training in the Special Operations Executive, Inayat Khan was the first woman operator to be infiltrated into enemy
occupied France,on 16 June 1943. During the weeks immediately following
her arrival, the Gestapo made mass arrests in the Paris Resistance Groups to
which she had been detailed, but although given the opportunity to return to
England, she refused to abandon what had become the principal and most
dangerous clandestine position in France.
She was a wireless operator and did not wish to leave her French comrades
without communications and she hoped also to rebuild her group. The
Gestapo did their utmost to catch her and so break the last remaining link
with London. After three and a half months she was betrayed, taken to
Gestapo Headquarters in the Avenue Foch and asked to co-operate. She
refused to give them information of any kind and was imprisoned in the
Gestapo HQ, remaining there for several weeks, and making two
unsuccessful attempts to escape during that time.
She was asked to sign a declaration that she would make no further attempts
but refused, so was sent to Germany for 'safe custody' (the first agent sent to
Germany). She was imprisoned at Karlsruhe in November 1943 and later at
Pforsheim, where her cell was apart from the main prison as she was
considered a particularly dangerous and unco-operative prisoner. She still
refused to give any information either as to her work or her comrades. On
12 September 1944 she was taken to Dachau Concentration Camp and shot
on the following day.
Noor Inayat Khan's George Cross was published in the London Gazette on
5 April 1949. She is also honoured on the Runnymede Memorial in
Surrey, for those RAF personnel with no known grave.
