Foch

Marshal Ferdinand Foch, GCB, OM, DSO (2 October 1851 – 20 March 1929) was a French soldier, military theorist, and an Allied Generalissimo during the First World War.


There is a statue to the Marshal of France who accepted the German surrender in 1918 on the opposite side of the road to the Trocadero in Paris and depicts Foch riding on his horse atop a large stone column inscribed with the words 'FOCH 1851-1929 Marechal de France, de Grande Bretagne et de Pologne'.  Ferdinand Foch was accorded the honour of becoming a Field Marshal in the British Army and also in the Polish Army after the First World War.
