Division Leclerd

Hello to all !!
Not if you have heard to speak about the division Leclerc.
Not long ago the French government has honoured there is this group of republican Spanish who took part the liberation of Paris.
For that not habesis heard nothing of this, I will say to you that it is something that fills me with pride knowing that Spanish were involved in these facts.
The division Leclerd was composed as I have said for republican Spanish that after the Spanish Civil war they continued attacking the fascism in Europe. These soldiers were forming a group known as Nine, and it is curious since in his Tanks they were taking names of battles of the civil war, Ebro, Belchite and some names more. since well this group was of the first ones that as avanzadilla was entering the Town hall of Paris on August 24, 1944.

What it gives me a bit of anger is that these facts are recognized after 60 years.
