Battle of Garris In the Battle of Garris on February 15 , 1814 , an Allied force under the direct command of Arthur Wellesley , Marquess Wellington defeated General of Division Jean Harispe ' s French division during the Peninsular War . Background . After the Battle of the Nive near Bayonne , Marshal Nicolas Soult ' s French army tried to pen Wellington ' s Allied army in the extreme southwest corner of France . To do this , Soult positioned his divisions in a line running from the fortress of Bayonne on the west to the fortress of Saint - Jean - Pied - de - Port on the southeast . Facing south , three divisions held the line of the Adour River from Bayonne to Port - de - Lanne . Facing southeast , four divisions defended the Joyeuse River from the Adour to the village of Hélette . Wellington ' s began his offensive on February 14 by sending Lieutenant General Rowland Hill with 20 , 000 men against the French left wing . In the face of this threat , Harispe ' s division at Hélette abandoned the line of the Joyeuse and fell back toward the Bidouze River at Saint - Palais . The next unit to the north , General of Division Eugene - Casimir Villatte ' s division , threatened by Lieutenant General Thomas Picton ' s 3rd British Division , also backpedaled to the Bidouze . Battle . Just east of Saint - Palais , Harispe found a defensible position at Garris ( Basque " Garrüze " ) . He deployed his division on a long ridge and awaited the Allied onset . The only escape route was the single bridge over the Bidouze at Saint - Palais . Late in the afternoon , Major General William Pringle ' s brigade of Lieutenant General Sir William Stewart 2nd British Division came up to the position , but merely skirmished with the French . But Wellington was on hand and sent peremptory orders to attack . Pringle ' s two battalions formed into close column , attacked and soon reached the top of the ridge . The French defenders gamely counterattacked but failed to drive away the British . Meanwhile , Major General Pablo Morillo ' s Spanish division and Major General Carlos Lecor ' s Portuguese Division began to envelop the outnumbered French soldiers . Harispe ordered a withdrawal . With the Portuguese closing in on the bridge , the French retreat soon became a stampede to safety . Most made it across the bridge but the Allies captured some men on the east bank . The French lost 300 men killed and wounded and 200 prisoners . The Allies suffered 170 casualties , including 40 Portuguese . In a melee with the 81st Line , the 1 / 39th lost 43 men . Result . The rout demoralized Harispe ' s division . The French general was unable to rally his soldiers in Saint - Palais and had to retreat further west . Consequently , the Anglo - Allied army breached the line of the Bidouze . Though the French engineers managed to set off demolition charges on the bridge , the work was done poorly and the Allies soon had the bridge back in operation . Soult recalled two of his divisions from north of the Adour and reformed his line on the Gave d ' Oloron River with six divisions . The next major clash would be the Battle of Orthez .
Groupe mobile de réserve The Groupes mobiles de réserve ( French : mobile reserve groups ) , often referred to as GMR , were paramilitary units created by the Vichy regime during the Second World War . Their development was the special task of René Bousquet , Vichy director - general of the French national police . History . The GMR were conceived at the time as a prefiguration of the renewal of the French Army , limited to 100 , 000 men by the armistice with Germany , and as a force to maintain order along the lines of the Gendarmerie mobile . Since they were affiliated to the national police , they did not have military status , thereby formally respecting the terms of the armistice . The numbers of the Garde mobile had been reduced along with the army by the exigencies of the armstice . Accordingly a law was passed on 23 April 1941 to tackle the maintenance of order , mandating the creation of the GMR . According to a subsequent decree of 7 July they would be attached to the regional public security service and answerable to the police intendent ( a position established by the law of 19 April 1941 ) under the authority of the regional prefect . These police units were assembled in the " zone libre " from autumn 1941 onwards , and deployed throughout occupied France by the end of 1942 . The law of 17 April established centrally a leadership of the GMT , and , regionally , area instructions . This civil paramilitary force was original envisaged to maintain order in an urban setting . However , from autumn 1943 , it was involved in operations against the French Resistance , in which it often proved much more zealous than the Garde mobile . A GMR , led by a commandant ( from a guardian of the peace ) , comprised at most 220 officers , and was divided into four sections commanded mainly by officers of the peace and themselves divided into four brigades . From autumn 1943 onwards , the GMR took part in offensives launched by the Vichy government against maquis formations , with the consent of the Germans . They fought in the Massif Central and took part as an auxiliary force in the fighting against the Glières Maquis . During operations against the Maquis du Vercors , the GMR stationed themselves at the foot of the massif to prevent access . The main responsibility for larger - scale military actions fell on the German army with secondary participation by the Milice . In contrast to the departmental police , the GMR were not recruited from the heart of the local population . They thus had no reason to seek the same type of " modus vivendi " which often existed between the maquis fighters and local law enforcement . Insofar as can be judged from witnesses and historians , they did not show particular scruples during these campaigns of repression , even taking into account defections among them in the summer of 1944 . After the liberation on 8 December 1944 , the GMR were dissolved , and a part of them were merged , after " épuration " ( purging of collaborator s ) , with elements from the French Forces of the Interior to create the " Compagnies républicaines de sécurité " ( CRS ) .
