Joseph Willot, pharmacien, résistant pendant la Grande Guerre (2008)

unapi

Joseph Willot was pharmacist (PhD), professor of pharmaceutical chemistry at the Catholic University of Lille (France), but also pharmacist in town and industrial pharmacist. Born in 1876, he was invited by Firmin Dubar, business man from Roubaix, and Mr Pinte, priest and teacher of chemistry at the technical Institute in the same town, to joint them in 1914, under the German Occupation, in order to diffuse information from the free part of France. This diffusion is going very soon to be under the format of an underground journal which had several successive names (L'Oiseau de France, La Patience...) until the network was discovered in 1916. Joseph Willot and his two partners were then deported in Germany. The present article wants to remind the history of this pharmacist from the professional viewpoint as well as for his fighter activities and his influence later on.
