PLOT SUMMARY <br />
<br />
English<br />
<br />
Led by the inspirational General Charles De Gaulle, the Free French refused<br />
to accept the armistice that their country had signed with Germany. They were<br />
branded as traitors by the official Vichy French government in France, but a<br />
few thousand men crossed the Channel to join the fight in Britain. In the Libyan<br />
desert in June 1942, Rommel and his Afrikakorps were driving the British Eight<br />
Army back towards Egypt. But at Bir Hacheim they met a pocket of fierce<br />
resistance: less than 4,000 Free French troops held the Germans for several weeks,<br />
before breaking out of the Axis encirclement to regain the British lines. It was a<br />
typical act of courage from the Free French. They were determined to free France<br />
from the Nazi thrall, and on their crusade, they fought in Central and North Africa, Italy. and North-West Europe. Thanks to the Free French gladiators, French<br />
representatives proudly took their places at the formal German surrenders at Rheims and Berlin with their American, British, and Soviet allies.<br />

Under kommando av den karismatiska general Charles de Gaulle vagrade de fria<br />
franska styrkorna att erkanna den vapenvila, deras regering hade undertecknat<br />
med Nazityskland. Aven om den officiella franska Vichyregeringen kallade dem<br />
forradare, korsade ungefar tusen man den engelska kanalen for att fortsatta<br />
striden vid britternas sida. I juni 1942 drev Rommel och hans Afrikakar den<br />
brittiska Attonde armen tillbaka genom den libyska oknen med riktning mot<br />
Egypten. Men vid Bir Hacheim motte tyskarna en motstandsficka som vagrade ge<br />
upp. Mindre an 4 000 fransman holl tillbaka tyskarna i flera veckor innan de<br />
brot belagringen och kampade sig tillbaka till de brittiska linjerna. Det var<br />
ett typiskt exempel pa De fria franska styrkornas hjaltemod. Tack vare krigarna<br />
i De fria franska styrkorna kunde franska representanter vara med och uppleva<br />
tyskarnas kapitulation i Reims och Berlin sida vid sida med deras amerikanska,<br />
brittiska och ryska allierade.<br />
