EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative patriotic French postcard, dating back to circa 1918, bears an inscription that was unanimously adopted by the French Senate and displayed in all Town Halls and Schools across France. The powerful message reads, "Les armées et leurs chefs - Le gouvernement de la République - Le citoyen Georges Clemenceau (Président et Ministre de la Guerre) - Maréchal Foch (Maréchal des armées alliées) ont servi leur pays avec distinction." Translated to English, this inscription pays tribute to the armies and their leaders, the French Government of the Republic, Georges Clemenceau (President and Minister of War), and Marshall Foch (General of the Allied Armies), for their distinguished service to their country. The image features a proud rooster, a national symbol of France, standing atop a flag, with the tricolor cockade and the fleur-de-lis emblem prominently displayed. The image exudes a sense of national pride and unity, reflecting the spirit of the French people during a time of great turmoil and hardship. Georges Clemenceau, a prominent French statesman and lawyer, served as the President of the Council of Ministers and Minister of War during World War I. He played a crucial role in the French victory and was instrumental in the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. Maréchal Foch, a renowned military leader, commanded the Allied forces to victory in the final stages of the war, earning him the title of Marshal of France. His strategic prowess and unwavering commitment to the cause were essential in securing the Allied victory. This postcard serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the French people and their leaders during a time of great adversity, instilling a sense of pride and unity that continues to resonate with the French people to this day.
