    Henry Kissinger and the Vietnam War Khuong Huu Dieu Secret Meteoric Rise to Power and Fame Henry Kissinger and his friend Fritz Kraemer. Kissinger being sworn in as Secretary of State by Chief Justice Warren Burger, Why in my memoirs do I have a sub chapter on Henry Kissinger, one of the world’s greatest Secretaries of State and a celebrity? Simply because Kissinger’s foreign policy and actions turned my life upside down in 1975, from a middle class engineer in Saigon to a dispossessed and depressed refugee in Marine Camp Pendleton in California. He has changed drastically not only my life but also the life of millions of Vietnamese and Americans. In search for the truth about Henry Kissinger’s actions, I wish my readers will not consider me a bitter vengeful South Vietnamese American or a bad loser in the Vietnam War. On the contrary, I acknowledge that Kissinger’s diplomatic action resulted in my rebirth in the land of the free, a break through unique in my life time! It even gave me an opportunity to write about the truth of his deeds during the Vietnam War. My fact findings came from the declassified top secret documents of the CIA and the NSC (National Security Council.) Kissinger was born Heinz Alfred Kissinger in Fürth, Bavaria, Germany in 1923 during the Weimar Republic to a family of German Jews. In 1938, fleeing Nazi persecution, his family moved to New York. He enrolled in the City College of New York, studying accounting. His studies were interrupted in early 1943, when he was drafted into the U.S.

  • Speaking Through the Body
    DE LA DOULEUR À L’IVRESSE: VISIONS OF WAR AND RESISTANCE Corina Dueñas A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (French). Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Advisor: Dominique Fisher Reader: Martine Antle Reader: Hassan Melehy Reader: José M. Polo de Bernabé Reader: Donald Reid © 2007 Corina Dueñas ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT CORINA DUEÑAS: De la douleur à l’ivresse: Visions of War and Resistance (Under the direction of Dominique Fisher) This dissertation explores the notion of gendered resistance acts and writing through close readings of the personal narratives of three French women who experienced life in France during the Second World War. The works of Claire Chevrillon (Code Name Christiane Clouet: A Woman in the French Resistance), Marguerite Duras (La Douleur), and Lucie Aubrac (Ils partiront dans l’ivresse) challenge traditional definitions of resistance, as well as the notion that war, resistance and the writing of such can be systematically categorized according to the male/female dichotomy. These authors depict the day-to-day struggle of ordinary people caught in war, their daily resistance, and their ordinary as well as extraordinary heroism. In doing so, they debunk the stereotypes of war, resistance and heroism that are based on traditional military models of masculinity. Their narratives offer a more comprehensive view of wartime France than was previously depicted by Charles de Gaulle and post-war historians, thereby adding to the present debate of what constitutes history and historiography.

  • Cher Raymond Aubrac, Ses Enfants Jean-Pierre, Catherine, Elisabeth Et
    A Jean-Pierre, Catherine, Elisabeth, les 3 enfants de Raymond Aubrac, à ses 10 petits enfants, à sa famille. Messieurs les députés, Mesdames et Messieurs les élus et personnalités Mesdames, Messieurs, Raymond Aubrac s’en vient rejoindre son épouse Lucie avec qui il a vécu une complicité 67 ans durant et construit ce couple mythique de la Résistance. Nous accompagnons ce dernier retour à Salornay, dans cette Saône et Loire que Lucie considérait comme son pays. Raymond Samuel est né le 31 juillet 1914, comme il se plaisait à rappeler, jour de l’assassinat de Jean Jaurès, juste donc avant le début de la Première Guerre mondiale dans une famille juive, laïque et républicaine de Vesoul. Son parcours témoigne d’une intelligence et d’une volonté exceptionnelle de justice et d’égalité, qui se prolongera toute sa vie. Ingénieur civil des Ponts et Chaussées, après des études à Paris puis une bourse d’études aux Etats Unis, il effectue son service militaire comme officier à Strasbourg quand la guerre éclate. C’est dans cette ville que Raymond fréquente Lucie Bernard qu’il a déjà côtoyé à Paris. Ils se sont mariés le 14 décembre 1939 à Dijon. Actif et donc exposé, Raymond fut détenu à la prison de Sarrebourg (Moselle). En août 1940, Lucie organise une première fois son évasion. Le couple Samuel, devenu Aubrac pour la circonstance, fut une pièce maîtresse de la résistance intérieure, avec un historique que je ne me risquerais pas à vouloir énoncer tant il fut riche, 1 astucieux, déterminé et glorieux, mais dont je dois évoquer sommairement quelques faits.

Le territoire est divisé entre une zone occupée au nord, avec des régions rattachées ( Le Nord pas de Calais est rattaché au commandement allemand de Belgique) et d’autres annexées (Alsace et Lorraine) et une zone non occupée au Sud jusqu’en 1942, à l’exception des enclaves italiennes à l’Est.

As a mother, I found myself questioning: was she right to put her unborn child and her little boy in jeopardy? They know the strength of my love, my determination, my will to prevail. One does not have a meeting with the Gestapo unless they become a collaborator. Outwitting the Gestapo is Lucie's harrowing account of her participation in the Resistance: of the months when, though pregnant, she planned and took part in raids to free comrades—including her husband, under Nazi death sentence—from the prisons of Klaus Barbie, the infamous Butcher of Lyon. In March , the Gestapo arrested Raymond, who was by then using the surname Aubrac. Never underestimate what a mother will do to keep her family alive.

    Le témoignage de Line (École de Cordon / classe de CE2/CM1/CM2) Armiaz Carte Google Maps La ferme à Armiaz (Cranves-Sales) Armiaz Carte Google Maps Notre témoin, Mme Callens (Line), est la femme de l'ancien maire (décédé) de la commune de Cordon, Paul Callens (maire de 1984 à 1995). Elle habite toujours Cordon. Le témoignage recueilli est une enquête sur papier, en réponse aux questions que lui ont posées les élèves de l'école. Line et son papa, après la guerre Le témoignage a été recueilli par les élèves de l'école de Cordon (Haute- Savoie) du CE2 (Enola, Jordan, Amandine, Emilie, Rémi, Louis, Kim, Annaelle), du CM1 (Anthony, Rémi, Jeanne, Maxence, Martin, Léo, Lina, Owen, Sarah, Olivia), du CM2(Elise, Maxime, Aurélien, Laura, Arthur, Alix, Hugo, Oscar) L'éclairage sur les événements racontés a été apporté par les élèves de 3ème A du collège du Verney à Sallanches. La vie quotidienne Line : « -On habitait dans un village, sur la commune de Cranves-Sales : Armiaz, sur les flancs des Voirons. Mon père y avait une ferme. J'avais onze ans en 1940. J'étais l'aînée de quatre enfants. J'allais encore à l'école et j'aidais mes parents aux travaux de la ferme, le jeudi qui était le jour de congé pour les élèves. A la campagne, nous n'avons pas eu faim. Mes parents avaient deux ou trois vaches, des chèvres, des poules , du bois pour se chauffer dans la salle commune ; les chambres étaient glaciales, avec du givre sur les fenêtres en hiver. A l'époque, je souhaitais poursuivre des études par correspondance, mais j'ai du seconder ma mère pour le travail de la maison, à la naissance de ma soeur : faire bouillir les couches dans la lessiveuse, les rincer dans l'eau glaciale de la fontaine(aïe !

  • Laurent Douzou, Lucie Aubrac, Paris, Perrin, 2009, 376 P
    Histoire@Politique. Politique, culture, société – Rubrique « Comptes rendus – ouvrages ». Mis en ligne le 14 décembre 2009, www.histoire-politique.fr Laurent Douzou, Lucie Aubrac, Paris, Perrin, 2009, 376 p. Donald Reid Today Lucie Aubrac (1912-2007) is remembered for two events. A daring resister, she told false stories to German officers in Lyon in 1943 to arrange the dramatic escape of her husband and fellow resistance leader Raymond Aubrac and a number of other imprisoned resisters. A half-century later, Jacques Vergès, attorney for Klaus Barbie, oversaw the creation of a document attributed to his client that sought to exploit inconsistencies in the documentation and accounts given by Lucie Aubrac to contend that she cooperated with the Germans in Lyon and this explained the liberation of her husband. A journalist, Gérard Chauvy, published the Vergès/Barbie document in a book in 1997 in which he insinuated that the charges made against Lucie Aubrac were true1. In an effort to put these accusations to rest, Raymond Aubrac asked for convocation of a group of historians to discuss Chauvy’s work. However, once assembled, the historians did not devote much attention to Chauvy’s text and several of them used the occasion to interrogate the Aubracs about their actions in Lyon in 1943. The transcript of the “roundtable” was published in Libération. Among the historians who participated was Laurent Douzou, author of a major study of Libération-Sud, the Resistance movement the Aubracs had helped found and in which they played central roles. Interviews with Lucie Aubrac and her husband were one of Douzou’s sources, although not a major one, and he recognized in the roundtable with the Aubracs, in 1997, that he was not questioning their accounts then, since he had not found reason to do so in a decade of research2.
