		There he was re-united with Joseph Darnand, his former commanding officer, a fascist like so many French Catholic idealists.
		After the war, he served as Chaplain to the foreign legion, and seems to have been the man who secured a pardon for Paul Touvier, one of the most scandalous Vichy collaborators to survive the score-settling at the end of the war, in which Bruckberger’s friend and rescuer Joseph Darnand had been executed.

		Joseph Darnand expanded the Milice [militia or secret policy] and by 1944, it had over 35,000 members.
		Like Joseph Darnand when he expanded the Milice, the new Iraqi leaders/collaborators are replacing Saddam’s police state, with an American managed police state, and playing a fundamental role to facilitate Iraq’s absorption into the U.S. imperialist system, while occupation soldiers are lending a hand with torture and abuse.
		Conclusion: Both Hitler’s occupation of France, and the U.S. occupation of Iraq appear identical with the difference that all of Iraq is occupied and not even one portion is under Iraqi control, not even autonomous Kurdish areas.

	H-France Reviews
		The defeat of 1940 and the German occupation seemed to offer the enemies of the republic what parliamentary politics had denied them until then: the control of the state in order to "remake France." This is the subject matter of chapter five.
		In it Davies discusses the politics of wartime collaboration from the double perspective of Vichy and the Paris-based French fascists, such as Alphonse de Châteaubriant's Groupe Collaboration, Joseph Darnand's Milice, Marcel Déat's Rassemblement National Populaire, Marcel Bucard's Francistes, Jacques Doriot's Parti Populaire Français, and the Légion des Volontaires Français contre le Bolchevisme.
		Perhaps with the exception of Pierre Laval, none of the protagonists on the losing side of the Franco-French civil war is discussed in detail--the entire collaborationist spectrum of the Paris "ultras" is dealt with in three pages.

	CONTEXT: Issue No. 13
		Rose is firmly persuaded that Maître Echinard has been sent by Joseph Darnand, the head of the militia, who was tried and executed for his crimes shortly after the Liberation.
		Clearly, Rose is crazy--but perhaps (as Camus remarked about the Roman emperor Caligula) she is not crazy enough, for in her delirium she points toward gestures of institutional oppression in France that have not changed much in the half-century since the war.
		Alas, his students are somewhat less accomplished than he might have wished; they have never heard of Darnand, nor do they have any idea what the word "paranoia" means.
