Time period:
1944-1945. The liberation of Italy, Provence,
the Alps, the Rhone Valley, the Vosges and
Alsace marked vital stages in the Allied
victory. And in the place that France was able
to take among the Allies following the
Armistice. This victorious and bloody march on
Germany was carried out by the 1st French Army,
recruited in Africa to sidestep the German
occupiers and the officials of the Vichy regime:
200,000 men, including 130,000 "natives"
comprising 110,000 North Africans and 20,000
Black African. The rest of the force was made up
of French North Africans and of young Frenchmen
who had fled the Occupation. This is the
forgotten story of the so-called "native"
soldiers.
