EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a pivotal moment in World War II history: the crossing of the Rhine River by the French First Army on March 31, 1945, marking the beginning of the liberation of Alsace and Lorraine from German occupation. The French troops, led by General Philippe Leclerc, wade through the icy waters of the Rhine, their determination and resolve etched on their faces. Just a few days later, on April 22, 1945, General Charles de Gaulle, the symbol of the Free French Forces, arrived at Strasbourg to celebrate the liberation of these two historic regions. De Gaulle's presence was a powerful statement of the French people's resilience and their unwavering commitment to reclaiming their territories. The image of De Gaulle standing triumphantly on the banks of the Rhine, surrounded by French soldiers and civilians, is an enduring symbol of France's victory in the war and its enduring spirit. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the French military and civilians during the war and the importance of freedom and national pride.
