Gladys Skillett was a British Guernsey nurse who played a significant role during World War II. She was deported to Germany during the German occupation of the Channel Islands and gave birth to a son in a small hospital in Biberach, becoming the first Channel Islander and woman from Guernsey to give birth in German wartime captivity. Skillett forged a friendship with a German woman named Maria Koch during her internment, and their enduring bond led to exchanges between the people of Guernsey and Biberach.
