Bersot
Lucien. 1915-02-13

Born 1881-06-07. Domain:Society. Cause of death:Murder

Lucien Bersot was executed February 13, 1915 and rehabilitated 12 July 1922. He was a French soldier among soldiers shot as an example during the First World War. His story was picked up by Alain Scoff and adapted to television by Yves Boisset. Shivering in the trenches, he asked the quartermaster sergeant wool pants identical to those worn by his comrades. The sergeant then offered him trousers ragged and stained with blood, taken from a dead soldier, that Bersot refused. For that refusal, Lucien Bersot was given a sentence of eight days in jail by Lt. André. But Lt. Col. Auroux, regimental commander, considered this insufficient punishment and required him to be trialed before a martial court. As new recruits had arrived, his intention was clearly to make an example of military discipline.
