from
Wikipedia
Most maquisards operated in the mountainous areas of Brittany and southern France, especially in the Alps and in Limousin.
The Maquis also aided the escape of downed Allied airmen, Jews and others pursued by the Vichy and German authorities.
The Maquisards were later to take their revenge in the épuration sauvage that took place after the war's end.
