EDITORS COMMENTS
General Charles De Gaulle, the esteemed leader of the Free French Navy, is captured in this historic print during his visit and inspection to a destroyer at a port on the North East coast of Britain. The date was 16th March 1942, a crucial period in World War Two when nations united against tyranny. In this image from the forties, General De Gaulle stands tall amidst a parade of sailors in their immaculate uniforms. His presence exudes authority and determination as he meticulously inspects every detail of the destroyer's hull. This momentous occasion symbolizes the unwavering commitment between France and its British allies. The location itself holds significance - Yorkshire, England - where brave men defended their shores against enemy forces. As war raged on, General De Gaulle's visit served as an inspiring reminder that freedom would prevail.
