The Caen « Special section », Yves Lecouturier. The « Special section » of the Caen Court was established in August 1941. After several trials of Communist Party militants, with relatively mild verdicts, the cases concerned mostly non political misdemeanors such as animal thefts, black market activities and illegal dealings. Was that because German court martials very quickly took in hand political repression even before the Bousquet-Oberg agreements of August 1942 ? Whatever the reason, Norman judges dont seem to have been very severe towards their compatriots.Lecouturier Yves. La section spéciale de Caen (1941-1944). In: Vingtième Siècle, revue d'histoire, n°28, octobre-décembre 1990. Dossier : Vichy, propagande et répression. pp. 107-114
