They also freed quite a number of Allied POWs, and got them back past the lines. They also downed comms and infra against the Nazis to blind them and slow their advances. They were also a key reason France was able to rapidly rebuild it’s forces post WWII.
Do people just skip WWII history these days?
People like to romanticize the effectiveness of individual heroism but that’s not what wins wars.
