The Jeep was
driven by a man named Harmond. He had changed the original “e” of his
name to an “a” in order to anglicize it. He had fought in
the British Army in Africa and Italy. He had in fact, been part of the four

Division near Koenig’s Free French at Bir-Hakiem, at the cost of seventy five

in uniform, with corporal’s stripes, his feet resting on canvas bags containing
explosives. A truck followed the Jeep; on board were fifteen men plus the
driver and an officer who had a beautiful red moustache. Among the men, ten had
handcuffs on their wrists and were dressed as Arabs; the other five, in combat
uniforms and helmets, served as guards.
