"As a member of the Underground Press Committee, I found myself mobilized on August 20, 1944, under the orders of a loudmouthed journalist who, the day before, had awarded himself two lieutenant's stripes. 'You must be wherever there's shooting,' an order made all the easier by the fact that there was shooting from all sides." (P. Jahan, Objectif)
