    My research has led me to this Book, written by Danuta Mostwin, titled : "Tajemnica Zwyciezonych " "Secret of the Victors "
    Danuta Mostwin's mothers apartment in Warsaw was a point of contact for the Couriers. And Danuta was taking care of the Polish Couriers and CC.
    11 of the 27 Couriers are featured in the Book. I have circled their Nom de guerre.

    This page from the above Book talks about the PostCard/letter that the Couriers sent from Gorlice. Their last known place before missing. I will translate tomorrow
