I don't think so, but try the on-line British Library or Library of Congress catalogues. As copyright libraries, between them they are meant to contain everything published in English anywhere, ever. If they don't have it listed in English translation, the answer is 99.99% probably "No".

Unfortunately, nothing comes up. Too bad, it would be an interesting read.
Thanks anyway.

Actually, http://www.worldcat.org shows a result for Servir. [On events in France, 1930-1940, and the author's part therein.], by Maurice Gustave Gamelin, in English, available in the British Library.
The British Library website seems to confirm its availability:

Hi Ironmachine,
Sadly I think that is the French first edition. I suspect an English edition would have a translation of Servir along the lines of "To Serve".
The bit in brackets in English is probably added by the British Library cataloguer to clarify the contents to non-French speakers.
Cheers,
Sid.

Quite probably. Still worth a try, though.
