"France was built with the sword", wrote General de Gaulle. Generations of soldiers have shaped the history of the French nation. Heroes who were once well known: the Arverni of Gergovia, the Franks of Tolbiac, the knights of Bouvines, the musketeers of Maastricht, the Grognards of Austerlitz, the poilus of Verdun, the Free French of Bir Hakeim, the paratroopers of Dien Bien Phu... Discover the history of the French army through the stories of its exploits, its victories and defeats, the decisive battles that forged the legend of the French army. These stories are not just pages of military history; these struggles and sacrifices have shaped the country.
