The 1st French Army is the name given to the military units placed under the orders of General de Lattre de Tassigny and assigned to the liberation of French territory.

It was first known as the 2nd Army (26 December 1943) and then Army B from 23 January 1944. It was not until September 1944 that it was officially called the 1st French Army. It was nicknamed the Rhine and Danube because of its victories on the Rhine and Danube between 31 March and 26 April 1945.

It is the main component of the French Liberation Army.
