The École Militaire – A History in Postcards invites the reader on a journey through time: in Paris, a century ago… These photographs show us the little history, a neighbourhood life and everyday life behind the gates of the École: soldiers at drill, ceremonies, fatigue duties, care given to horses… They also plunge us into the great History: the rehabilitation of Dreyfus, the Universal Exhibitions and the two World Wars.

SELVA - The 3rd Foreign Infantry Regiment in French Guiana

L20240048
€36.97
« SELVA »: this small word of Brazilian Portuguese punctuates, day after day and year after year, the conversations of the legionnaires serving in the 3rd Foreign Infantry Regiment, signifying by turns a word of thanks, a negation, a question, or concretely the acceptance of a received mission. Is this merely a superfluous affectation, of little interest...

One of the greatest testimonies on Napoleon. Throughout his reign, Napoleon received Pierre-Louis Roederer — accomplice in the Brumaire coup, Councillor of State and later Senator of the Empire — a countless number of times in his study.

LECLERC TANK, FROM THE COLD WAR TO THE CONFLICTS OF TOMORROW

Designed to destroy Soviet tank hordes on the plains of Germany, the Leclerc set the performance bar so high that, forty years after its conception, engineers the world over still dream of matching it when designing a new tank. Hitting seven moving targets at up to 3,000 m while travelling cross-country at 50 km/h in one minute is a feat achievable only...

The Tragic History of the 371. Inf.-Div. during the Battle of Stalingrad

L20220191
€23.70
Every day, Russian researchers carry out excavations to the west and south of Stalingrad — and occasionally within the city itself — searching for the missing soldiers of this gigantic battle, which cost the Soviets 1,700,000 dead and the Germans 1,000,000. They sometimes uncover remains and equipment from that period, and occasionally helmets, some of...

Truths and legends of the "Führex". Until his death, Léon Degrelle (1906–1994), leader of the fascist movement Rex, founder of the SS Wallonia Legion, and the last European National Socialist leader, represented for the far right the icon before whom one had to be anointed, on the occasion of a "pilgrimage" to Spain where he had taken refuge in 1945.

The hedgerow war was arguably the most gruelling fighting undertaken by American troops in Europe, before the Hürtgen Forest and the Ardennes counter-offensive. In the weeks following the Landings, the GIs found themselves confronted with an unexpected environment whose significance high command had not truly grasped. The bocage proved to be a deadly trap...

The markings applied to Marine Corps tanks in the Pacific are a source of great interest for armour enthusiasts, and especially for scale modellers, who find in them an almost endless diversity and originality.
