On October 12, Hubert Germain, the last companion of the Liberation, died. On this day of commemoration, France paid a last tribute to the Resistance, one of the first to have joined the movement of General de Gaulle. A ceremony placed under the sign of emotion which ended with the burial of Hubert Germain at Mont Valérien.
Hubert Germain, the last companion of the liberation, was for many a symbol of free and resistant France. On the Fields-Elysees, a small crowd came to watch this moment of history. A ceremony that had been entirely imagined by Hubert Germain himself before his death. The tears of the President of the Republic say a lot about the importance and the immense mark left by this pillar of French history, which now rests on Mont Valérien.
