Full textThis thesis analyses the background to the entry of the franco-british forces into Belgium on the 10 may 1940 to counter-attack the invasion of this neutral country by the Germans. The study focuses on the conception of the plan, itself the result of many strategic decisions taken between the two wars and of changes made during the phoney war, to reflect the attitudes of the Belgians and the Dutch who had remained neutral. After that, it describes its execution and explains why the plan failed with the allied being very quickly defeated by the german forces who prevailed over every strategic field. At the end of this analysis, the author suggests an explanation for this unexspected military defeat
Haberbusch, Benoît. "La gendarmerie de l'Algérie de 1939 à 1945." Paris 4, 2003. http://www.theses.fr/2003PA040132.
Full textAmong the original projects of the Gendarmerie new history, this Ph. D. Dissertation brings a double reflection through World War Two and the Algeria. From the 19th Gendarmerie Legion Level, this study aims at defining the role of Gendarmes in the context of war on a colonial territory. It is organized in three chronological parts. The first part focuses on the organization, the missions and the personnel of the 19th Legion in 1939. It shows a rather successful example of the Gendarmerie model used in Algeria where it had to adapt to local specificities. This presentation of the Gendarmerie prior to the Conflict contributes to a better understanding of changes to comes. The second part studies the consequences of the 1939-1940 campaign, the armistice of June 1940 and the establishment of Vichy's regime on the Gendarmerie in Algeria. This part provides a sharp comparison with the situation in France at the same period. Though they played a role in mobilization, Gendarmes in Algeria only saw war in the distance. Only a few witnessed the collapse of France as they served in Gendarmerie provost restrained the strength of the Gendarmerie. With the new Vichy government also came a personnel purge and a deep reorganization of the force. The third part covers the November 1942-December 1945 period. First of all, it offers an analysis on how Gendarmes reacted to the Allies' landing in Northern Africa. Indeed, the operation had a double effect ont the Gendarmes' lives. On the one hand it changed the political environment in Algeria, and on the other hand it took the Franch Northern territories back to war. Secondly, this part explores the rebirth of local nationalism seen through Gendarmerie reports. These reports also provide a great insignht in the role played by Gendarmes during the "Constantinois" revolts of May and the way the revolts were repressed

Full textThis dissertation proposes to show that french indochina played an important part in the pacific war, both from the political and the military standpoints. It was the main cause of the conflict. In her coastal waters, american submarines sank a great many naval and merchant japanese ships, as well as french shipping. Indochina, meanwhile, was submitted to systematic american aerial bombing causing heavy damage and casualtyes and ruining the country's economy. Resentment clouded french-american relations. To which was added a severe problem created by the presence of aowned allied aviators in the territory of french indochina. One of these operations was the raid of task force 38 on the coast of fic of january 12 1945, the biggest and most devastating single-day air-carrier operation of the war. It had dramatic military and political consequences leading to the japanese coup of 9 march 1945. Moreover, this dissertation deals with the crucial problem of the american naval and aerial strategy in the pacific and the ascent of naval aviation before and during world war ii

Full textThis thesis is about the Polish government in exile in France from 30th September 1939 after the defeat in Poland and also about the Polish army on the French territory. This army took part with the French army to the battle of France from 10th May 1940 to 25th June 1940. Gen-eral SIKORSKI made Prime Minister of this government by President RACZKIEWICZ was the commander in chief of this army. There are three parts. The first one is about the Polish government in exile. The second one is about the army and the third one about the Polish Air force in France. The Polish navy didn't take part of the military operations

Full textThis thesis focuses on the representation of the part of the Anglo-Americans in the liberation of Europe on French television between 1949 and 2009. Cut out in three periods, 1949-1963, 1964-May 1981, May 1981-2009, this work shows the influence, throughout the years, of different factors on the account of this moment in history. The analysis sheds a light on the fact that the representation of the part played by the Anglo-Americans in World War Two does represent a memorial stake within the French society: the moving importance given to the Anglo-American role in the liberation of Europe is significant to the links bound by the French with this moment of their history. In this thesis also lays the question of the impact of external influences on the shaping of the television discourse and of the role of this media as a vector of history and memory

Full textMember of one of Prussia's oldest and proudest military families, general Walther von Seydlitz-Kurzbach was torn between his oath of loyalty and his concern for the welfare of Germany, he chose the latter. At Stalingrad he was the only general who called for the disobedience of Hitler's orders, to save the 250000 men of the sixth Army. In September 1943, he decided to head a group of captured German soldiers and officers under Soviet sponsorship, in an attempt to achieve the war, to depose Hitler and to replace the Nazi regime with a lawful government. On 16/4/1944 Hitler condemned the "traitorous general" to death in absentia. Stalin decided to subvert the National Committee for free Germany and turn it into a cadre training school to staff Russia's anticipated share of Germany. General v. Seydlitz did not want to become a communist and refused another dictatorship for Germany. Back to homeland in 1955, he found himself anathema, thus he had proved his opposition, both to Nazism and Stalinism. He was rehabilited in 1995 but his biography between two totalitarianism still raises polemics

Full textA tragic but largely unknown episode for the Western public--and highly distorted on the Soviet side--the siege initiated by the Germans and their allies that Leningrad underwent for almost 900 days is a privileged observation field for studying the reaction of individuals to a context of extreme violence and pressure (the war, the blockade, Stalinism). The many personal diaries kept by the besieged --an extremely rich but still underexploited source--allow one to penetrate into their mental universe and thereby offer an invaluable insight not only on the history of the siege of Leningrad but more generally on the intimate experience of the Stalinist era in times of war. On one hand they let one see the role of diaries in infrahuman conditions (survival writing and testimonial aspect) and bring to light a singular way of narrating this experience (mass death, starvation, disorientation), joining as such the realm of disaster literature. On the other hand, they show the complex way Soviets react to a propaganda-filled ideological environment. The articulation of the three pillars of the Soviet ideology (collectivism, internationalism, heroism) by the diarists reveals a permanent tension between intimate and official discourses. It manifests itself by a wide spectrum of different stands, from total discredit to the internalizing the voice of the power. As such, the personal diaries allow us to refine our comprehension of the intimate experience of Stalinism, whose study often remains restricted to the 1930s

Full textBy fighting under the tricolour flag for the first time on European soil since the defeat of 1940 the French Expeditionary Corps (FEC) made an important symbolic gesture towards national recovery. The symbolism of this historical moment should not, however, obscure the difficulties behind it. This thesis presents a wide-ranging study of the FEC from the Allied landings in North Africa in November 1942 to the FEC’s withdrawal from Italy in July 1944. It not only examines military operations but also highlights the political and diplomatic difficulties faced during the FEC’s creation: the lukewarm public response to the levée en masse in French North Africa, the problematic amalgamation of Vichy’s Army of Africa with the Free French Forces and the uneasy relationship between French and Allied leaders, French diplomacy impeded by dependence on U.S. arms. French participation in the Italian campaign is also examined in the light of Allied debates on military strategy in the Mediterranean Theatre. Though a peripheral war zone, the Italian peninsula was the scene of a gruelling struggle. This thesis offers a detailed analysis of the combat experience: the violence of the war of attrition in the winter of 1943-44, the suffering of the combatants and the physical and psychiatric casualties. It also examines questions relating to soldiers’ leisure, discipline and colonial relations within the army. It then evaluates the role of the FEC in the liberation of Rome in June 1944, a victory tarnished by incidents of rape and looting. Ultimately, while the FEC marks a decisive step in the reconstruction of the French Army, it also reveals a growing rift between France and its Empire

Full textIn spring 1944, Allied bombing of France was to reach its maximum intensity since the beginning of World War II. Nearly two years after the great turning points in 1942, the military situation was now largely in favour of the Allies. The final defeat of the Third Reich now appeared inevitable. The preparation of OVERLORD, the renewed application of large-scale power on the European continent, faced strategic challenges and required novel techniques. A little-known scientist, Solly Zuckerman, a brilliant zoologist but also a civilian unknown in military circles, persuaded the Allied high command of the validity of his air plan. This “Transportation Plan” proposed to strike decisively at the French railway system in order to disrupt the flow of enemy reinforcements to the Allied beachhead during the landings. Daring by strategic innovation, risky by the obvious threat to French civilians, Zuckerman's plan ran immediately into the hostile scrutiny of the great chiefs of strategic bombing, who were engaged in their almost "private" air campaign against Germany. The issue of civilian casualties brutally shook politicians including Winston Churchill, and ultimately went back to Franklin Roosevelt. Unknown in historiography, the “Transportation Plan” represents a fascinating history of the preparation of the Normandy landings

Full textAlarmed by the magnitude of the atrocities perpetrated in Europe and in Asia, the Allies demonstrated their resolve to punish those responsible for such acts in 1945. From 1945 to 1948, prominent members of Nazi Germany and the Japanese Empire were prosecuted at the Nuremberg and the Tokyo International Military Trials. In Japan, the United States invited France to participate in the Tokyo trial. This trial offered her an unexpected opportunity to build prestige in the Far East; during World War II, France had lost her richest colony, Indochina, and hoped to regain it. France wanted to prove that she was a nation of rights in Asia where decolonization was gaining ground. But it is hardly surprising that her delegates did not protect the national interest. On the contrary, they just wished to improve the fairness of the Tokyo trial. Based on unpublished sources, this thesis aims to understand their commitment to international justice. It sheds new light on the Tokyo trial and on the history of transitional justice

Full textWednesday, May 15, 1940, in the small Ardennes village of La Horgne, west of Sedan, the troopers of the 3rd [Cavalry] Brigade of Spahis (2nd Regiment of Algerian Spahis from Tlemcen and 2nd Regiment of Moroccan Spahis from Marrakech) try to stop a part of the most modern Panzer-Division of the Wehrmacht. Commemorative History has focused on a 3rd Brigade of Spahis that was simply "annihilated" in about ten hours of fighting, but not before putting out of action a thousand German soldiers. For its part, the scientific History takes into account 50 Spahis and 31 German soldiers killed in action. More than 76 years after the fact, it is more than time to put an end to the legend of the "useless slaughter of 700 Spahis charging German tanks on horseback at La Horgne"

Full textBy writing a complete history of the First French Army from the Provence landing on August 15, 1944, to the German surrender on May 8, 1945, this dissertation aims to connect the military, diplomatic and political dimensions of this campaign with its colonial, social and cultural aspects. Born in North Africa from the fusion between the Free French and the so called ‘’Armée d’Afrique”, reinforced in metropolitan France with volunteers coming from the Resistance and with conscripts, it was an extremely heterogeneous army. Nevertheless it had to fulfill a challenging set of diplomatic, political and military objectives: to restore the national grandeur four years after the defeat and to get France a seat at the table with other victorious nations, to implement a national unity program and to deal with the aspirations for change coming from French society.In May 1945, these challenges had only been partially overcome. Even if its successes were tarnished by incidents of rape and looting, the French army was victorious on the battlefront and France obtained control of an occupation zone in Germany. Political and military tensions among soldiers decreased while they were fighting a common enemy. But peace brought these tensions back. The Post-War army was only marginally renewed. And as general mobilization was never decreed in metropolitan France, natives and Europeans born in the empire paid the harshest price to deliver the mother country as contestation of the colonial order increased. In 1945, the gap between the nation and its army, and between metropolitan France and its empire was wider than ever
