Hitler's ally: why did not execute the Marshal Petain

July 23, 1945 in Paris, began the trial of the head of the collaborationist French state Philippe Petain. The aged Marshal was convicted of treason and sentenced to death. The leader of the French Resistance and a former subordinate of Petain, General Charles de Gaulle, however, replaced the penalty with life imprisonment.
