Jean Moulin was born in B?ziers, France, and enrolled in the French Army in 1918, but World War I came to an end before he could see any action. After the war, he resumed his studies and obtained a law degree in 1921. He then entered the prefectoral administration, as chef de cabinet to the deputy of Savoie in 1922, then as sous pr?fet of Albertville, from 1925 to 1930. He was France's youngest sous pr?fet at the time.
