Would be interesting to be very friendly with all the old ones in the area, or were in the area, to find out where those Brens are. Those Bren magazines have to fit somewhere.
STENS were considered disposable. Surprisingly light rust considering where they've been for 70 years. Sad that the French Government is welding 'em into paper weights. Wonder where the Brens are.
There was some woman over there who had had an operational Tiger or Panther(forget which) in her garage until fairly recently too.
"...the governments in exile..." The French government in exile was De Gaulle. Who was self appointed. He wasn't actually elected until 1958.
