MEMORIAL DE LA BATAILLE DE FRANCE. Vol. 3 : du 5 au 16 juin 1940. - End of stock !

On June 5, 1940, the Germans launched their second major offensive of the campaign against a particularly weakened French army. The battles on the Somme and on the Aisne will take a great intensity before the numerical superiority of the assailant does not force the French troops to fall back little by little. On June 13, Weygand, whose obsession is to save what can be saved from the French Army, launches a general order to save-it-can. One could believe the campaign ended but it is not: violent fights will still take place on the roads to the Loire, in front of Verdun, in the Saar or on the Rhine.
For twelve days, the fight will also rage between supporters of a continuation of the fighting at the head of which we find Reynaud and de Gaulle and the supporters of the armistice led by Weygand and Petain. The fall of the Reynaud government on the evening of June 16th will seal the fate of the French campaign.
Twelve dramatic days to discover in this book.
