Weeping Frenchman
The Weeping Frenchman, also known as the Crying Frenchman is an iconic imag published in the 3 March 1941 issue of Life magazine on page 29 with the caption, "A Frenchman sheds tears of patriotic grief as flags of his country's lost regiments are exiled to Africa." The picture is not actually a photograph, but is a still from film footage shot in Marseilles during a procession of French regimental flags on their way to Africa to preserve them from surrender.
