Nazi Collaborators Executed In France (PHOTOS): Chilling Images From LIFE.com
First Posted: 09- 2-10 04:40 PM | Updated: 09- 2-10 05:51 PM
Just days after Paris was famously liberated from German control in 1944, LIFE photographer Carl Mydans and correspondent John Osborne were eyewitnesses to a grisly affair in the foothills of the French Alps.
On September 2, a group of Resistance fighters gathered near the town of Grenoble to execute a half-dozen Nazi collaborators who had worked for the Milice -- the despised Vichy police. The photos and commentary that ran were simultaneously poignant and terrifying.
Here is a small sample of some of Mydan's rare, chilling photographs that document the horrific event. Be sure to check out the amazing full gallery on LIFE.com.

"They looked so young, wretched, unshaven, yet at the same time evil in their dirt and misery," Osborne recalled of the six doomed men.

"The first five bodies, looking north from where I stood, seemed to fall slowly, slowly, slowly in dreadful unison," Osborne wrote.

Minutes after the men stepped out of the van that transported them from the jail, they are laid in their coffins.

Grenoble, then, was a small town in the alps and is famous for having the most wily, forceful, stubborn, ingenious, and dogged resistance fighters. They were famous and inspired other regions of France to form groups of resistance fighters.
The townspeople lived in the woods attacking the Germans, causing serious damage to German war machine, stopping thier advances and inspired many to resist.
Over 1000 people of Grenoble were sent to death camps, over 2000 civilians were killed fighting the Germans. The collaborators handed them over to the Nazis.

In just a few short years, our history books will show similar pictures of republicans being given justice for the war crimes, political lies and for selling our country out to the corporations. lmfao
