The 600 barricades erected and the scuffles alone could not overcome the German troops. This insurrection triggered the arrival of the Allied military forces sent by General Eisenhower. The vanguard of the 2nd Armored Division (DB), commanded by an early Free Frenchman, General Leclerc, entered the capital on the evening of August 24, to the sound of church bells...
  • Equipped with six-sided dice and miniature soldiers, participants will face military challenges inspired by historical reality, accompanied by a team of enthusiasts.
