    Also, where were the Vichy Armies? The only place I know of where Vichy troops put up a real and successful battle was Dakar, where they were mainly fighting other Frenchmen.

    I see your point but I thought that since De Gaulle considered Pétain as kind of his Nemesis It would be nice to have both in.

    Now about the Vichy armies. I'm not surprised that you only heard of their performance at Dakar because that was I think their only decent battle throughout the war. They also fought in Syria and furher down Western Africa and were indeed mainly fighting other frenchmen(dumbasses)
