Only I shall decide what to do with Vichy officials. No, no, it is all quite Impossible. I will never accept that you can speak for all of the allies. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower:

In fact the Vichy government is precisely that, General. But... we will liberate France and treat her as an ally nonetheless. All I ask is that you speak on the radio after my address and call on your people to aid us in their liberation. General Charles DeGaulle:
Speak after you? Impossible. That would imply that I approve of your program. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower:
I understand. Allow me see you to your car
