The
war
memorial
in
Oran
is
situated
at
the
only
place
from
which
one
can
see
the
sea
,
a
sort
of
promenade
which
for
quite
a
short
distance
runs
along
the
cliffs
overlooking
the
port
.
The
following
day
Rambert
,
first
to
arrive
at
the
meeting
-
place
,
was
attentively
reading
the
list
of
those
who
had
died
on
the
field
of
honour
.
A
few
minutes
later
,
two
men
came
over
,
looked
at
him
without
any
particular
interest
,
then
went
over
to
lean
on
the
parapet
of
the
promenade
,
seeming
altogether
absorbed
in
contemplating
the
bare
,
deserted
quays
.
Both
men
were
the
same
height
,
each
wearing
blue
trousers
and
a
dark
blue
,
short
-
sleeved
pullover
.
The
journalist
moved
a
short
distance
away
and
sat
down
on
a
bench
where
he
could
keep
them
in
view
.
This
was
when
he
noticed
that
they
could
surely
not
be
more
than
twenty
years
old
.
Just
then
,
he
saw
Gonzales
walking
towards
him
,
apologizing
.
"
Here
are
our
friends
,
"
he
said
,
leading
him
towards
the
young
men
whom
he
introduced
as
Marcel
and
Louis
.
From
the
front
they
looked
very
alike
and
Rambert
guessed
that
they
must
be
brothers
.

"
Here
we
are
,
"
said
Gonzales
.
"
Now
you
know
each
other
.
We
have
to
make
the
actual
arrangements
.
"
Marcel
and
Louis
said
that
their
turn
at
sentry
duty
began
in
two
days
and
lasted
a
week
.
They
would
have
to
look
out
for
the
most
convenient
day
.
Four
of
them
guarded
the
West
Gate
and
the
other
two
men
were
professional
soldiers
;
there
was
no
question
of
involving
them
in
the
business
:
they
could
not
be
trusted
and
,
in
any
case
,
it
would
put
up
the
cost
.
But
occasionally
these
two
colleagues
would
go
and
spend
part
of
the
night
in
the
back
-
room
of
a
bar
that
they
knew
.
So
Marcel
and
Louis
suggested
to
Rambert
that
he
should
come
and
stay
with
them
,
near
the
gates
,
and
wait
for
someone
to
come
and
fetch
him
.
In
these
circumstances
the
crossing
would
be
quite
easy
.
But
they
would
have
to
hurry
because
there
was
talk
recently
of
setting
up
double
sentry
posts
outside
the
town
.
Rambert
agreed
and
handed
round
some
of
his
last
cigarettes
.
The
one
of
the
pair
who
had
not
yet
spoken
asked
Gonzales
if
the
matter
of
expenses
had
been
settled
and
if
they
could
have
an
advance
.

"
No
,
"
said
Gonzales
.
"
There
’
s
no
need
.
He
’
s
a
friend
.
The
account
will
be
settled
on
departure
.
"
They
fixed
a
new
meeting
.
Gonzales
suggested
dining
in
the
Spanish
restaurant
the
day
after
next
.
From
there
they
could
go
to
the
sentries
’
house
.
"
For
the
first
night
,
"
he
told
Rambert
,
"
I
’
ll
keep
you
company
.
