The Five Martyrs of the Lycée Buffon

I had a meeting the other day in the Place des Cinq Martyrs du Lycée Buffon.
It refers to five schoolboys from the local Lycée Buffon who starting in 1940, aged between 15 and 18, committed acts of resistance against the occupying Nazi forces. These developped from minor acts of sabotage to actual armed attacks. In 1943, they were captured, executed by firing squad, and their bodies thrown in a communal pit.
The meeting went well.
