Bezen Perrot was a "Breton company fighting war against France", founded by C. Lainé, who rejected the neutrality of the PNB. The unit was renamed Bezen Perrot in 1943 after the murder of Y.-V. Perrot by an anti-German Resistance movement. Composed of a few dozens of people, Bezen Perrot fought locally under German uniform and command, with the name of Bretonische Waffenverband der SS.
The flag of Bezen Perrot was in proportions 4:5, white with a slightly decentred black cross.
