What is behind the secret French atomic program in the Pacific? This informative article reveals the little- known efforts of De Gaulle to keep Germany from dominating Europe! Early in September, I observed De Gaulle hi action for seven full days. It was the final Pacific Islands leg of his world tour. Along with a troop of thirty to forty international journalists and photographers, I covered the General's tour of the Pacific Islands of New Caledonia, the New Hebrides, and Tahiti. Few grasp the vital reason why President de Gaulle came to troubled East Asia and the South Pacific. Fewer still understand what it portend s for the future of Europe. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
