Ike: Countdown to D-Day2004
General Charles DeGaulle:
You say local administrations will stay in place?
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower:
For stability, General.
General Charles DeGaulle:
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:
The British have, the Canadians, the Australians, the exiled Dutch and Poles. Roosevelt and Churchill have agreed. Come to think of it, you're the only exception.
General Charles DeGaulle:
You will not treat us like Italy. We are not German 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.
