Croix de Feu giant night rally

As night descends, cars continue to arrive, bringing men of the Croix-de-Feur who gather under the light of torches and church lights. The field fills with 40,000 singing and cheering members, representing a fraction of the 400,000-strong Croix-de-Feur. A lieutenant fires the battalion while the commander watches. De la Rocque delivers a powerful message, urging the end of disorder and the restoration of authority. He calls for readiness, hinting at a possible national mobilization soon.
