Yvan Meesen’s book recounts the garrison’s twelve days of resistance at Fort d’Aubin-Neufchâteau in May 1940.
An account to understand the fighting
The account draws on the author’s experience and Colonel Oscar d’Ardenne’s campaign diary. It places the fort’s defence in the context of the fighting of May 1940.
Period photographs and documents accompany the text. The book extends your discovery of the site by giving a place to the men who defended it.
