Craps Armee Francaise

The following is again miniatures painted by Combat Colours for my 28mm Spanish American War Personalities. At one time I thought of playing the Spanish American War in 28mm, but never got around to it and now I don't have a desire to do it in 28mm. Bolt Action is actually much closer to I Ain't Been Shot Mum, or even Flames of War in terms of its movement, ranges and whole squad system. The only parity with CoC is that both are popularly played with 28mm figures. There are quite a few surprisingly advanced equipment like this in WW2. The Russians operated 2 entire divisions of remote controlled 'Teletanks' in 1939, the US had radar guided glide bombs and air to air missiles near the end of WW2, in addition to a wide variety of drone aircraft including B-17s converted into kamikaze drones, and France had ramjet aircraft and helicopters under development.

The Army Special Forces Command (French: Commandement des forces spéciales Terre, COM FST) is the French Army's special forces unit. It is based in Pau, Pyrénées-Atlantiques.

History[edit]

The COM FST is the heir of the groupement spécial autonome (GSA, independent special grouping) created in 1997 and then commanded the 1er RPIMa and a special operations flight belonging to the 4e Régiment d'Hélicoptères de Commandement et de Manœuvre (4e RHCM, 4th command and manoeuvre helicopters regiment) of the ALAT.

In 1998, the Détachement ALAT des Opérations Spéciales (DAOS, ALAT detachment for special operations) was created.

The brigade des forces spéciales Terre (BFST) was activated on 1 July 2002 and included the 13e RDP. The BFST conduct an annual exercise called Gorgones (gorgons) to ensure interoperability of the three units. The name Gorgones refers to the three units, as the three mythological figures.

The BFST has supported the peacekeeping operation in Côte d'Ivoire (Operation Licorne) and Afghanistan (Mission Héraclès).

The brigade des forces spéciales Terre became the commandement des forces spéciales Terre (COM FST, division level) on 1 July 2016.
