A Blue Plaque will remember the Guernsey Active Secret Press (GASP) who produced news leaflets based on BBC broadcasts.
German occupying forces confiscated radios in 1940, leaving islanders uninformed about global events and war efforts - that's when GASP's work began.
From June 1942 to May 1945 the team listened to broadcasts and produced weekly and monthly newsletters.
They worked in secret, risking arrest and deportation - which happened to the Guernsey Underground News Service, another resistance network that distributed news during World War Two.
Blue Plaques are positioned around the island and honour past Guernsey people who have made important contributions to the Bailiwick and the wider world.
The one for the GASP team will be unveiled at 34 St George’s Esplanade in St Peter Port on 6 May, at 10.30am.
Amanda Johns, who nominated the group for the plaque, is a local history tour guide and is married to the great-nephew of the GASP editor, Ludovic E. Bertrand.
She says the location is important.
"China Red used to be Moulins cycle shop, and they were typing up the newspapers upstairs.
"The Germans coming to have the bikes repaired wouldn’t hear the typewriters because of all the banging from repairing the bicycles downstairs.
34 St George’s Esplanade, now China Red.
"I know this recognition means the world to family members of agents who were involved. They risked their lives and their story is pretty much untold."
