Summary[edit]
| Description |
A Free French infantryman, native of the Chad colony, who was awarded the Croix de Guerre. During World War II, Chad was the first French colony to rejoin the Allies on August 26, 1940, after the defeat of France by Germany. Under the administration of Félix Éboué, France's first black colonial governor, a military column, commanded by Colonel Philippe Leclerc de Hauteclocque -who later was one of the first commanders to enter in Paris with a group of Spanish volunteers- and including two battalions of Sara troops, moved north from N'Djamena (then Fort Lamy) to engage Axis forces in Libya, where, in partnership with the British Army's Long Range Desert Group, they captured Kufra. A total amount of 15,000 Chad soldiers participated in World War II. c. 1942 #historiansunion #colored #colorized #colourised #colorization #colourisation #color #colour #history #military #ww1 #wwi #worldwarone #greatwar #thegreatwar #ww2 #wwii #worldwartwo #military #war #warfare #allies #axis #africa #libya #croixdeguerre #lecrerc #france #freefrance #chad |
