| Summary, etc. | Faced in late 1954 with another insurrection in Algeria, the authorities cautiously formed back-up forces with civilian status to “maintain law and order”, fearing that their weapons might pass to the enemy. Only once it became clear that victory could not be achieved without the support of the Muslim population did those in command accept that their manpower should be increased, while taking care not to form a sort of “community” army alongside “sovereign” forces. Up until the ceasefire, nearly one hundred and seventy thousand Muslims served France as back-up troops. In the accords signed with the FLN (national liberation front), Paris wanted these men to have their place in independent Algeria but as a result of the massacres that followed the men henceforth known in history as the Harkis were hastily evacuated to metropolitan France, where they were left in utter destitution and obliterated from the national memory. Not until 2003 did France finally face up to this painful part of its history by honouring their memory. |
