Sébastien Vogt has just received the Military History Prize for his memoir Charles Gutsch awarded by the Society of Friends of the University of Strasbourg. Every year, this prize rewards particularly deserving dissertations and/or theses in the field of military history. The prize was created by the widow of a French officer who died during training, Mrs. Gutsch, to encourage young researchers.
