Underground Emerges Amid French Resistance and Allied Hope
The underground resistance in France has grown from shattered wreckage to a significant diversion for Allied troops. Paris saboteurs trained, moved arms, and radioed hidden updates, delaying German operations as Gen. Koenig gains Allied support. Tensions linger with De Gaulle, yet optimism rises as talks between Roosevelt and De Gaulle may ease friction. Eisenhower approves Koenig, and post invasion talks proceed. Lawford Fry challenges diesel superiority, noting lasting appeal of steam-era romance for engineers and a public tempered by progress. A Pennsylvanian teen, Lois Price, astonishes with a perfect teeth set, prompting questions about the price of perfection.
