Hello everyone, Operation Dragoon (=Operation Anvil) was executed by the allied forces on the beaches of Cote-d'Azur - Southern France. What part did the Free French Army play in this operation? I know that the 1 st Armoured Div. of the Free French Army left North Africa for Southern France but did they actually participate in the landings? And later on: what role played the Free French Army - just merely to 'liberate' french villages or actually heavy combat, also during Nordwind and the Ardennes Offensive? Regards, Jarno Boer
