The call of the Chevalier d'Assas rings out as a call to bravery and unity. Spoken by the Gauls of the 92nd RI at the close of their regimental song, this emblematic motto is a powerful symbol: the symbol of courage, that of a soldier who sacrifices himself to sound the alarm and save his comrades in arms; the symbol of victory, that of Kloster Kampen, won through the fighting spirit of the Auvergne regiment; the symbol of the essential bond with the land of Auvergne.

In the ranks of the 92nd, generation after generation of Auvergnats fought for France.

"A moi, Auvergne! " thus brings together all the values of the 92nd. This handsome volume could bear no other title. With more than 300 photographs, it will lead you through the glorious history of the heirs of Vercingetorix, the Chevalier d'Assas, and General Desaix.
