Hello everybody, and above all british forcemen !

Here are some photos of our event of 8/9 March. We have represented the Force during its advance from Nice and l'Escarène to the front line Col de Braus/Menton. The Force had to take 4 tops on this line: Col de Braus, Mt Meras, Mt Ours and St Agnès. The first step of the Force during this campain in Maritims Alps, the Force did exceptional job, in advance of the paratrooper units on the same front (509th/517th), from 3 to 8 days before :twisted: .

A forgotten part of the FSSF History for no famous...

no more now...

Did you get to visit the fort that looks over Monaco and Menton? Is it St.Agnes or Pele? Place has been shut every time I've been up there. I spent many a summer in Menton and Roquebrun.
Well done on the effort lads, as always looking the part.
