“British and American bombers discharged at our West African ports are flying in one hop to Egypt,” comments the “Daily Express.” .“Thanks to the brilliant stroke of de Gaulle which put French Equatorial Africa on our side, our fighters also can in two hops reach Egypt from the Atlantic coast. It takes a bomber only another hop and a fighter another hop or two to reach Russia. If we can acquire the enemy coast-line on the Mediterranean we shall then flank the French in Tunisia. Our arrival there would cause great convulsions. Petain may sack Wevgand, but Petain’s writ will not run in Africa in these conditions.”
