“Thus Lebrun had not so much resigned as faded away. The coup d’état of 10 July 1940, if coup d’état it was, could hardly have been a politer affair. As de Gaulle later wrote scathingly of Lebrun in his Memoirs: ‘As Head of State he lacked two things: that he was a Head; and that there was a State.”

“France’s prime minister during the Great War, who had been dubbed ‘le Père la Victoire’ – Father of Victory.”

“He wrote: I would have liked to make the following declaration: ‘Pétain was named head of State by the National Assembly composed of men properly elected by the Nation. The fact of choosing the Jurors among the Resisters and among the 80 parliamentarians who voted against Pétain in 1940 while 800 voted for, will taint the judgement that is made. I am happy to participate in the judgement, I do not want to participate in an assassination.’9”
