"It seems necessary to recall that exactly 77 years ago, during the summer and spring of 1943, the Groupe de Commandos d'Afrique was formed in Algeria, made up entirely of volunteers from the French Corps Africa (dissolved after the liberation of Tunisia where it had covered itself with glory), elements from various units of the Army of Africa (Tunisians, Algerians, Moroccans and metropolitans), enlisted persons wishing to take part in the assault on Europe to rid it of the Nazis.
