Phalange Africaine photos
Hi,
Are these members of Phalange Africaine, created by Darnand on November 1942 in North Africa? And somebody knows who, where and what on the second photo? On the first one men are uniformed, but on the second one men are on milician style uniforms. And who could be the german SS officer on the vehichle. And what guns are on the vehicle? They are not germans.
thanks

Hi,
The first photo is LVF platoon, in Russia. The flag is one of a company. This photo was published in cover of "Les Français sous le casque allemand" by Lambert et Le Marec. Grancher éditions.
