Avril Sept 2019 AVRIL SEPT 2019 Programme des festivités sur WWW.CHERBOURG.FR p 2 Après une longue période d’occupation allemande, Cherbourg a été libérée le 26 juin 1944, plusieurs jours après le Débarquement sur les plages de Normandie. Pour les Alliés, Cherbourg est un objectif prioritaire au lendemain du débarquement. Il s’agit de s’emparer au plus vite de la ville et surtout de son précieux port en eau profonde qui deviendra alors la tête de pont du ravitaillement du front pour permettre la reconquête de la France et de l’Europe par les Alliés. SOMMAIRE p.4 à 21 PROGRAMME PAR THÉMATIQUES p.4 à 9 COMPRENDRE p.10 à 11 RECONSTITUER p.12 à 13 RENDRE HOMMAGE p.14 à 19 FÊTER p.20 à 21 TRANSMETTRE p.22 à 23 PROGRAMME PAR DATES Crédit photo page 1 : Archives de la Manche/conseil dép., 13 num-5532, fonds de photographies américaines, 14 juillet 1944 © J.Houyvetlumieresmarines.com p 3 ÉDITO Dans la nuit du 5 au 6 juin 1944, les Alliés lançaient l’opération Overlord et partaient à la conquête du port de Cherbourg, seul port en eau profonde capable de servir de base arrière pour les libérateurs. Le 26 juin, ils prenaient la ville après d’âpres combats. Cherbourg, le port de la Liberté, alimentera le front pendant presqu’un an devenant le premier port du monde. Pour que la mémoire de la Libération perdure, la Ville de Cherbourg-en-Cotentin et de nombreux acteurs du territoire proposent un large programme de commémorations, de rencontres et de festivités d’avril à septembre. Des rendez- vous de toutes sortes pour comprendre, revivre, rendre hommage, fêter et transmettre… 75 ans après la Libération, quelques vétérans et civils apporteront leurs témoignages précieux. Je me réjouis de la rencontre prévue entre une vingtaine de vétérans et plus de 450 enfants et jeunes de la ville ou encore de l’organisation de bals populaires dans les différentes communes déléguées. La venue de l’Hermione, symbole de la liberté et de l’amitié franco-américaine, est aussi un évènement fédérateur pour notre cité. Le devoir de mémoire est fondamental. La liberté s’apprécie mieux encore à l’aune du passé. Que ces rencontres soient l’occasion de partager, de se souvenir et de construire l’avenir.

  • Bob Maloubier 2015 April 21
    ! Wednesday 22nd April 2015 Bob Maloubier, SOE agent - obituary French agent recruited into the Special Operations Executive whose daring missions included blowing up a German supply vessel and a factory ! Bob Maloubier, who has died aged 92, was one of the last surviving French agents of the Special Operations Executive; twice parachuted into his native land, he carried out a series of daring sabotage missions with fellow agents including Violette Szabo, whom he attempted to rescue from the hands of the Gestapo. After the war he was a founder member of France’s special forces. Robert Maloubier (always known as Bobby, or Bob) was born on February 2 1923 in Neuilly, on the outskirts of Paris. His father, Eugène, and mother, Henriette, were both former teachers who had lived and worked around the world, notably in America and England. Languages were a family gift, and later in life Bob Maloubier would speak English almost without accent. A keen sportsman, Eugène Maloubier encouraged Bob and his elder brother Jacques to pursue all forms of athletic activity, notably cycling. With the German invasion Jacques was called up into the artillery. Bob’s father, then working as a press attaché for a car manufacturer, was offered two places by his company in a vehicle fleeing Paris. Bob’s mother refused to leave her son behind, but the young man convinced her that he would be able to cycle out of the city quicker than they could drive. Several days later, after 400 miles, the family was reunited at Saintes, north of Bordeaux. There his father gave Bob 1,250 francs, half of what he had managed to save, and told him to flee to England and take up arms against the Germans from there.

  • The Important Posthumous George Cross Group to Violette Szabó 22
    £25 The Important Posthumous Second World War George Cross group awarded to Violette Szabó, Women’s Transport Service (F.A.N.Y.) and ‘F’ Section, Special Operations Executive (S.O.E.), late Auxiliary Territorial Service (A.T.S.) www.dnw.co.uk 16 Bolton Street Mayfair London W1J 8BQ WEDNESDAY 22 JULY 2015 Telephone 020 7016 1700 Fax 020 7016 1799 at 10:00am E-mail [email protected] INTRODUCTION Just four direct examples of the George Cross (G.C.) have been awarded to women, three of them members of the Special Operations Executive (S.O.E.): Violette Szabó, Odette and Noor Inayat Khan. The fourth example was awarded to Barbara Harrison, a B.O.A.C. stewardess, who died as a result of gallant rescue work at Heathrow airport in April 1968; her G.C. is owned by British Airways. Violette, Odette and Noor Inayat Khan have all been the subject of biographies, in Violette’s case Carve Her Name With Pride, by R. J. Minney (1956), Violette Szabo - The Life That I Have, by Susan Ottaway (2002), and Young, Brave and Beautiful, by her daughter, Tania Szabó (2007); two have been the subject of films, Odette being portrayed by Anna Neagle in the film of the same name in 1950 and Violette by Virginia McKenna in Carve Her Name With Pride in 1958. As a consequence, their lives have been the subject of ongoing study and media coverage, evidence - if it were needed - of their sublime gallantry and example. Odette, whose G.C. is owned by the Imperial War Museum, survived Ravensbrück; owing to her then married name of ‘Churchill’, the camp commandant used her in a failed attempt to save his own skin on surrendering to the Allies.

Using oral history, as well as information gleaned from auto/biographies and SOE reports, it is argued that many female captives resorted to gender stereotypes by ‘playing the daft lassie’, that they experienced punishment with distinct sexist and sexual overtones and that gender was significant in their accounts of incarceration within concentration camps.
