He escaped with the militant Jean Filiol, but went into exile in Sanremo, Italy, with his wife and children. After the Second World War, he returned to France to become a medical officer at Bêtre Hospital. He died in a car crash in Paris in 1969, aged 77. He is buried in the Centre de Centre de la Défense in Paris, next to his wife.
