Hi All,

Does anyone know of a good website on the uniforms, insignia, and other such items worn or used by the French in Indochina (specifically Dien Bien Phu)? Thanks!

Hi Alex,

A quick look around didn't really turn out many results, there is this one, but some of the site buttons seem to be non-functional. <a href="http://www.parasfrancais.org.uk/indochina/indounindex.htm" target="_blank">http://www.parasfrancais.org.uk/indochina/indounindex.htm</a>

However there are several good books on the subject. <a href="http://www.warbooks.com/france.html" target="_blank">http://www.warbooks.com/france.html</a>

Regards Eddie.

Thanks for your help Eddie! It turns out one of the few working links on the website is exactly what I needed, and I might order one of the books too.

Thanks again!

Hi Alex

For French badges, insignias and awards, you can also go there : http://zitocland.forumpro.fr/index.htm

It is a french website but with an international area. Some members are the best experts of this issue. Feel free to ask.

Cheers
