About The Book

Thousands of Frenchmen volunteered to provide military help to the Nazis during World War II fighting in such places as Belorussia Galicia Pomerania and Berlin. Utilizing these soldiers memoirs The French Who Fought for Hitler examines how these volunteers describe their exploits on the battlefield their relations to civilian populations in occupied territories and their sexual prowess. It also discusses how the volunteers account for their controversial decisions to enlist to fight to the end and finally to testify. Coining the concepts of outcast memory and unlikeable vanquished Philippe Carrard characterizes the type of bitter unrepentant memory at work in the volunteers recollections and situates it on the map of Frances collective memory. In the process he contributes to the ongoing conversation about memory asking whether all testimonies are fit to be given and preserved and how we should deal with life narratives that uphold positions now viewed as unacceptable.
