This song is the story of Albert Roche, who is very much forgotten today, but after the First World War was THE hero of France. He was hotheaded and tempestuous, but above all he was GOOD. His service- and his legend- from that war- is just remarkable, and today we share the war stories of the First Soldier of France.
