An original photograph from Damascus of the Circassian troops during the French mandate with Philibert Collet, Commander of the Circassian Cavalry. During World War II, Colonel Collet was instrumental in the defeat of the Vichy French troops by collaborating with the free French army led by De Gaulle and the British allies. Collet's role was uncovered by Radio Ankara, repeated by the BBC, and taken up by brazzaville, prompting Dentz (commander of Vichy French army in Syria) to issue orders to arrest Collet. It was said that Collet's wife was British and hence his cooperation with the British and De Gaulle. On 8th June 1941 at 2AM, British, Australian and free free French forces crossed into Syria and Lebanon. (source: fulfilment of a mission by Major-General Sir Edward Spears).

This work is in the public domain in France for one of the following reasons:
Its author (or the last of its authors in the case of a collaboration work) died more than 70 years ago (CPI art. L123-1) and did not benefit from any copyright extension (CPI art. L123-8, L123-9 and L123-10)[1];
It is an anonymous or pseudonymous work (the identity of the author has never been disclosed) or a collective work[2] and more than 70 years have passed since its publication (CPI art. L123-3);
It is the recording of an audiovisual or musical work already in the public domain, and more than 50 years have passed since the performance or the recording (CPI art. L211-4).
Please note that moral rights still apply when the work is in the public domain. They encompass, among others, the right to the respect of the author's name, quality and work (CPI art. L121-1). Attribution therefore remains mandatory.
↑Copyright extensions must be considered only in the case of musical works and of authors Mort pour la France (died during conflict, in the service of France). In other cases, they are included in the 70 years post mortem auctoris length (see this statement of the Cour de Cassation).
↑The collective work status is quite restrictive, please make sure that it is actually established.
