I must admit that have not read much about the heroic deeds of the French Resistance during the Second World War but this book ( which i cannot praise enough ) was a great read. One passage in particular, i won't tell you about it just incase you get yourself a copy, left me with a huge lump in my throat and reaching for a hanky ( i must be getting a bit soft in my old age).
Take a look at http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/0...8525588-9035821
"Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" Douglas Bader
Most people don't know how much the French Resistant DID during the war. The more I read, the more intrigued I am. The army came to rely on the resistance in France, Belgium and the like.
I plan on taking a look at the book later today on Amazon and will add it to my list of must-haves. Thanks Bader.
