Found History
Malheureusement, j’ai dû supprimer deux numérisations récentes de films :
(FR) French Army Memories: Forgotten Tank River Crossing Restored
(FR+EN) Remastered 1977: French Legionnaires' Operations in Djibouti
ECPAD, l’archive audiovisuelle du ministère des Armées, m’a informé qu’il détient les droits de publication de ces images et m’a demandé de retirer les vidéos.
Les laisser en ligne nécessiterait l’acquisition d’une licence, ce qui dépasse actuellement le budget de cette chaîne.
Je respecte pleinement leurs droits, c’est pourquoi les vidéos ont été définitivement retirées.
J’espère qu’à mesure que la chaîne grandira, je pourrai un jour obtenir une licence et les partager à nouveau.
Merci de votre compréhension.
Unfortunately I had to delete two recent film scans:
(FR) French Army Memories: Forgotten Tank River Crossing Restored
(FR+EN) Remastered 1977: French Legionnaires' Operations in Djibouti
ECPAD, the French Defence image archive, informed me they hold the publishing rights and asked me to remove the videos. Keeping them online would require a licence fee that is currently beyond this channel’s budget.
I respect their rights, so the videos are now permanently offline. I hope that as the channel grows I’ll eventually be able to license and share them again. Thank you for understanding.

In our latest video, we dive deep into the riveting world of a long-forgotten Explosive Safety Film from the 1960s. This isn't just any film; it's a pivotal piece of history, dedicated to teaching the dangers of unexploded ordnance that still may lurk in our forests and fields. 🎥🍂
