MIS-X nos 1 to 999

This is a list of US evaders with their MIS-X report numbers. Up until D-Day evaders in northern Europe (other than Scandinavia) generally tried to reach England, usually through Spain, but after the Allied landings in Normandy, they tended to evade in the country in which they found themselves, sheltered by local people, and sometimes resistance organisations, until the advancing Allied forces reached them.

I don't have easy access to the US Archives and so the information on this page comes from a wide range of sources, although as you can see, there are still many details missing - contributions from readers will be appreciated.
