Hi Ying,MPC,and Fin!

One of Lothar von Arnauld de la Perière´s missions in Bretagne,
was also to persuade the French Navy,
under the terms of Franco-German Armistice of 24th June 1940,
to collaborate with him in the administration and running of the Brest Dockyard.

The port´s 2 Admirals,Traub and Brohan,had already been removed
to an unknown destination.

Next senior officer was Captain le Normand,an old friend of de la Perière,
they had both commanded submarines in the same waters in the first war,
later got to know each others as captains of cruisers.

Le Normand did not care for being a commandant of a collaborationist dockyard,
but seeing in it the means of conserving the installations for France,
as well as saving many sailors from the miseries of POW camp,he accepted.
