| Summary, etc. | In response to the wishes of a large number of families plunged into mourning by the Great War, the French Republic, by the Act of 31 July 1920, demobilised the soldiers and seamen who had died for France. This exceptional, democratic and generous measure marked, above all, the burden of the dead on the living. This ambitious undertaking required tight organisation, which was headed by the State. In the 1920s, thousands of coffins travelled throughout metropolitan France and the French colonies to their final resting place. The bodies of the brave soldiers were exhumed, identified, placed in a coffin and sent home to their village, where they were honoured with great pomp by their families and the entire community in mourning. A supreme tribute by the nation, but also and especially by the commune to its children, the reburial ceremonies quelled the quarrels for a time and marked political, religious and social unity. But, a century later, what remains in the collective memory of these 300,000 bodies returned to their families? |
