The 1st Free French Division (French:1re Division Française Libre, 1re DFL) was one of the principal units of the Free French Forces (FFF) during World War II, and the first Free French unit of divisional size.
World War II
Units that eventually formed the division were engaged in combat as early as September 1940 at Dakar in an unsuccessful attempt to bring the Vichy troops there over to the side of the Allies. Other elements fought in Gabon and Eritrea before the various units were organized under British sponsorship as the 1st Free French Light Division in May 1941 near Tel Aviv. From 8 June - 11 July 1941, the division fought with British forces to remove the Vichy authorities from power in the Levant. The division was then disbanded in August 1941, but the component units continued to serve with the Allied forces.
In action as separate brigades, units of the 1st Division became famous for their hard fighting at Bir Hakeim and El Alamein. The division was reformed as the 1st Free French Division on 1 February 1943, and subsequently fought in the Tunisian Campaign during April and May 1943.
In this video you can find a preview of the 1e DFL (1st Free French Division) covering my immediate opinions and thoughts whilst also putting together a rough deck! Enjoy!

Other new units include the M6 Fargo light truck equipped with a 37mm AT gun and the TD M10 RCA used as regular tank.
While it might lack tank or artillery support, it makes up for battlefield vigor, excellent infantry, and features substantial air support from Free France Air Force and nearby British aircraft carriers.
The 1e Division Française Libre excels as a boots-on-the-ground division, and though it lacks an armored punch, can hold its own on the battlefield.
