Ruse EnubIes Troops
To Join Free French

BY a ruse, a native sergeant Of a
French garrison in Somaliland got
rid of a corporal who opposed going
over to the Free French.
When Vichy started a scare that
British and Free French troops had
attacked in French Somaliland the
garrison at Airogi wanted to join
the Free French.
One corporal objected. To get
him out of the way the sergeant
wrote he was being attacked and
ordered the corporal to take the
message to headquarters. Then the
sergeant mustered the garrison and
all crossed the frontier.
