The French "resistance" was largely a myth.

Re: Monsieur Raymond Aubrac
Aubrac was a great self promoter. True, he had some very scary moments in his life and did some good things (although its said he never actually participated in the bombings) but above all else he was a good self promoter. When given a job, after the war, to punish Nazi sympathizers, he was as brutal as the Nazis were.
