Biography
Pierre LaRoche is a member of the S.A.S. Free French branch, and is set to be second in command. He is first seen in the beginning of the "Night Drop" level when he stops a German from killing the player. Together with the resistance and the British SAS, they destroy fuel depots, anti air emplacements, and rescue hostages. Tensions often flare between LaRoche and Keith of the S.A.S. by Keith calling him "Frenchie" and accusing fellow members of assisting the enemy. They also help free other resistance hostages and the Major when he was captured later in the game.

Trivia

 * Duncan Keith seems to be very disrespectful to Pierre LaRoche, often making fun of France and not trusting Pierre's loyalty to the Allies.
 * At the end of "Chambois", after Guzzo makes his speech, there are several soldiers and there is one that looks like Pierre, however the narrator said only Canadian and American re-enforcements arrived so this is obviously not Pierre, unless the Polish and British came afterwards.
 * One of the Kino Der Toten zombies looks simmilar to LaRoche, probobly using the same character model, only zombified.
 * Another thing thats possible about the zombie is that LaRoche joined the Nazi's after the Normandy Breakout, and was one of Maxis' test subjects. However this is very unlikely.
