At the end of World War II, he was deputy stationmaster in Étampes, where he avoided being shot by the Wehrmacht.

After the war he entered the Ministère de la Reconstruction (Ministry for Rebuilding) and moved his family in Paris.

New to the capital, he entered a Celtic Circle, where participants meet each week, welcome newcomers from Brittany and dance and sing together.

This center took the name Bleimor, the pen name of the Breton poet Jean-Pierre Calloc'h, who died in 1917 at the battle of the Somme.

The older Scouts were for many years within the framework of the Mission bretonne de l'Ile-de-France, which had been created to occupy the Breton young people who had emigrated to the Paris area, in order to help them to preserve their Breton religious practice, which they had a tendency to give up in Paris.
