Turning points, June 1941 - November 1942

After Hitler's invasion of the USSR in June 1941, the communist party begins its armed struggle. In August, Colonel Fabien, head of the Special Organisation, executes a Nazi officer at the Barbès metro station in Paris. The retaliation is immediate and terrible: hostages such as Guy Môquet are shot.
