家园 是不是的德国人眼里殖民地士兵属于“敌对战斗者” (enemy combatant)不是战俘,不受日内瓦条约保护. 还是认为他们是雇佣军,玷污了欧洲军人为荣誉和国家战斗的主则,所以杀无赦.不过从最后还是枪下留人来看, 纳粹军官比小布什高上一点.
家园 国防军和党卫军不一样 党卫军是意识形态挂帅，国防军身上残留的容克军事贵族的荣誉感还是挺强的。
家园 查不到详细的故事了 当时所有殖民地来的士兵都是集中关押的。德军对于这些殖民地士兵的政策，河里研究二战的人也许有清楚的。我从桑戈尔这边，查不到更加详细的东西了。
家园 如果只是从桑戈尔这边。。。 那有没有自己给自己脸上贴金的可能？
呵呵，纯粹看到一点花边八卦一下，村长不必为此费神细究了。
家园 真找到了一些 这是一篇研究1940年德军屠杀法军中黑人士兵的文章。大意是说在当时作战中，德军的确不认为黑人士兵受到1929年日内瓦的有关战俘的协议的保护，所以采取不保留黑人战俘的政策。所以在很多情况下，黑人士兵被俘之后在当天就被击毙，往往是上百人一组的屠杀。其中大部分是在德军进攻法军的Somme河防线战役中发生的。战役从1940年6月5日开始，持续两个半周。有记录的被屠杀的黑人战俘有一千五百名，实际数量可能是这个数字的两倍以上。有不少著作讲述这些事情。
桑戈尔被俘是在1940年6月20日，这个时间是符合上述事件的。这个故事在桑戈尔的自传中有记载。桑戈尔是著名的法语诗人，在二战后的法国也进入了政府高层，当过部长，其编造这类故事的可能性并不大，所以应该是可信的。虽然足够八卦。
家园 塞内加尔的首都 Dakar似乎一般译作达喀尔,以便和孟加拉国的首都达卡(Dhaka或者Dacca)相区别.
家园 法国的问题是不像英国一样对待土著。 不然也许就得到的结果是加拿大和澳大利亚啦。
家园 hehe, then how they got Montreal? or in French, Mont-Royal?
In the middle square of Montreal, there was one plate that marked the place where French conquers chopped off the head of the Indian tribe. EMPIRE WAS NEVER CONQUERED THROUGH BLAH BLAH PERSUASION.
Do not be so naive. In sum: Frenchmen were too few and too weak to be brutal to the Indians.
France's true problem: the king only allowed devout French Catholics to settle there in New France, but the New France/Quebec is too cold for average Frenchmen. Most men did not want to go. There were few women there, and King Louis 14 had to send many orphan girls(800+)to New France to maintain population growth. They were called King's daughters, or "filles du roi". Today's Quebecois are all offsprings of them.
Despite all the effort, by middle-18th century, French America was much larger than English America IN LAND SIZE, but the population ratio was 1 to 20.

WITH SO FEW FRENCHMEN THERE, the American Indians were the crucial man power which would determine the outcome of this empire fight. Therefore, Frenchmen formed strong alliance with different tribes northern of the St. Lawrence river. While the British formed alliance with a few Indian tribes on the south shore.
Of course, after Britons won the French Indian war, the "allies" were no longer useful.
Keep in mind, all the hungry/poor Englishmen/Scottish/German/Irish came to North America not for harmony. They came for farmable land. When the Treaty of Paris blocked their pursuit of land, they fought the whole British empire. And then naturally, they would put guns to the local Indians when they won independence. George Washington was the first master planner for the systematically elimination of Indians west/east of Mississipi River.
No Europeans have a clean record in the expansion of the American empire. Do not just blame Britons. Frenchmen and Germans also had their blood in hand.
BTW, There were protestant Christian Frenchmen who actually deserted their own country and joined the New England side. George Washginton 's grandma was of Huguenot origin (French protestant Christian). This shows how stupid the French were: the bloody suppression the King deployed against Huguenot sent many Frenchmen into the British camp.
Hi, Li, BTW, I am waiting for your 3rd episode on French-British diplomacy. Are you going to post it?
家园 是的。 搞种族清洗种族隔离种族歧视，世界上谁比得了冷酷无情的盎格鲁人呢？
家园 小声问 接下来会不会有“豺狼的日子”这个花絮啊？
