  • Georges Bergé (Belmont, 3 janvier 1909 - Mimizan, 15 septembre 1997) est un militaire français, Compagnon de la Libération. Ralliant les forces françaises libres dès 1940, il met sur pied une compagnie de parachutistes français avec lesquels il réalise les premières missions clandestine sur le territoire français occupé. Opérant aussi bien pour le Bureau central de renseignements et d'action français que pour le Special Operations Executive britannique, il s'illustre en Méditerranée lors de la destruction de plusieurs aérodromes allemands mais est fait prisonnier à cette occasion. Restant dans l'armée à l'issue de la guerre, il y exerce diverses fonctions de commandement et de représentation. (fr)
