Jean Moulin
Jean Moulin was a prominent figure in the French Resistance during World War II, known for his role in unifying various resistance groups against the Nazi occupation. Born on June 20, 1899, in Béziers, France, he was an influential politician and civil servant before the war. Moulin became a crucial leader and organizer, working closely with Charles de Gaulle to coordinate efforts that would ultimately contribute to France's liberation. His capture by the Gestapo in 1943 led to his torture and subsequent death, but his legacy as a symbol of resistance and courage in the face of tyranny endures. The recent acquisition of tapes from Klaus Barbie's interview has reignited discussions about Moulin's fate and the brutal realities of wartime France.
