 PARAMETERS, US Army War College Quarterly - Summer 1998
General Jacques Leclerc, the wartime pseudonym of Philippe François Marie de Hautecloque, commanded the division.
Leclerc pulled together a variety of elements, "a mosaic of peoples, races, religions, and political convictions."[3] Free French from the United Kingdom and Syria, French North Africa and Equatorial Africa, Catholics, Protestants, Jews, Moslems, and animists, communists, reactionaries, socialists, radicals, free thinkers, militant Christians, and Quakers all mingled in friendship.
Leclerc was to penetrate into Paris first, as Bradley said, "to help the French recapture their pride after four years of occupation."[13] But Allied troops were to accompany the French on their ostensibly military mission to bolster the Resistance in the capital.

"Jacques used to be really worried about what everybody thought of him, which I guess was because he put on a big facade," Anderson says.
Demers proved to be a good judge of character, as Leclerc respected his promise — aside from telling his wife and swearing her to secrecy.
Leclerc briefly considered revealing the news after Demers was fired by the Canadiens in 1996, yet decided the scoop wasn't worth ruining his friendship.

 Armed Forces of the World  RE:Top Ten Armies in Europe jacques StrategyPage.com
Whereas the Leclerc has a 95% killing percent on a 60 KmH moving target, with a range superior than 3000 m, while it is moving at more then 60 KmH, so if the Leclerc stay between 1500-3500 m from the challenger 2, it can destroy the challenger 2 without having any risk to be shooted.
the challenger is proved in combat the leclerc isnt so you could use your own arguement to say that a T72 is a better tank than the leclerc as its systems have all been proved while the only bits in the leclerc that has been proved are those that are also fitted to the challenger.
The Leclerc armor is much lighter than the Chobbam 2 one, than the Leclerc turret is much smaller than all the other MBT ones, so if you consider the armor/space factro, the Leclerc has got a better protection.

In 1940 Chad became internationally prominent when its lieutenant governor, Félix Eboué, led the rest of the AEF federation to support Free France under Charles de Gaulle rather than the government of Vichy France.
Chad became the base for Colonel Jacques Leclerc's conquest of the Fezzan (1940-43), and the entire episode became the basis of an enduring sentimental bond between the France of de Gaulle's generation and Chad.
