The Movement got in contact with late King Hussein bin Talal, informing him with the aims and purposes which the Movement aimed to achieve, and were accepted and blessed by the King. This national effort resulted on 1 March 1956 with courageous declaration by the King to dismiss Lieutenant General John Bagot Glubb, the British commander of the Jordanian Armed Forces. King Hussein issued his instructions to members of the Free Officers Movement to enforce the Royal decree.
