Custom Piece – national flag of Free French Forces Forces Françaises Libres – 3D Print for LEGO Minifigure

This item is an accessory for a toy minifigure, consisting of a historical flag mounted on a small black flagpole with a base.

The flag shown is the banner of the Free French Forces (Forces Françaises Libres), the government-in-exile and army led by General Charles de Gaulle that fought on the Allied side during World War II after the fall of France in 1940.

The design of the flag is a modification of the national flag of France, with a very important symbol added to it:

• It features the three traditional vertical bands of blue, white, and red that make up the French Tricolour.
• In the center of the white band is a red Cross of Lorraine (Croix de Lorraine). This two-barred cross was adopted by Charles de Gaulle as the official symbol of Free France to represent the resistance against Nazi Germany and to serve as a visual counterpoint to the swastika.

The flag piece itself is a small, printed plastic tile. This accessory is perfect for representing a soldier of the Free French Forces (like the ones who fought in North Africa or landed in Normandy), a member of the French Resistance, or for any historical diorama of World War II.
