Currently (3-22-2016), the article claims without citation that the French Army will reactivate its First Armored Division "in 2016". I can't find any sources for this claim. Should it be deleted? 73.13.123.157 ( talk) 15:29, 22 March 2016 (UTC)

There is a lot of material here that seems to be written by non-English speakers, or translated from the French article https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/1re_division_blind%C3%A9e_(France) so it needs a clean up. Stevebritgimp ( talk) 22:02, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
I am not finding any mention of such a town south of Colmar in any of the supporting articles and suspect this is a typo or auto-complete error. Noting here as I want to stay focused on the translation problems for now, but I or someone else should research this and either validate, correct or remove it. The name of another town just before this is unwikilinked because the name exists as an upper and a lower on the en wikipedia. These issues can probably be resolved with either sources or fr Wikipedia Elinruby ( talk) 06:32, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
“D'importants combats de la bataille des Vosges engageant chars et artillerie ont eu lieu entre les Alliés et les Allemands fin septembre et début octobre 1944 dans la bataille de la Chevestraye.
Le 2 octobre, deux bataillons de Légion étrangère relèvent la 1re division blindée dans le secteur de Fresse - La Chevestraye avec pour mission d’opérer une action de diversion au col pour appuyer l'attaque menée sur Ronchamp. Après d'âpres combats avec gains et revers, les hauteurs du col de la Chevestraye sont finalement enlevées par un bataillon ukrainien venu renforcer les Légionnaires. Ce bataillon, issu du 1er régiment d'infanterie de la 30e division de Waffen-SS, sous-équipé et sans moyens, avait tué ses chefs allemands et rejoint un maquis de la Haute-Saône le 27 août 1944[3].
Une stèle en l'honneur de cinq soldats du 2e régiment de chasseurs d'Afrique morts durant ces affrontements est érigée au col[4].”
