"Commandant DAUBARD joined a French intelligence réseau and became head of one of its sectors. He organised and developed this sector with such success that towards the end of 1943 it had become an independent réseau covering a wide area.

A great deal of valuable intelligence was provided by the organisation, notably on V1 launching bases.

Commandant Daubard continued to direct the excellent work of his réseau until the liberation of France."
