AFRICAN HEROES MASSACRED BY FRANCE

History is full of people who served the interests of Western countries, only to be betrayed by them later in the most brutal way. One example is that of West African soldiers who fought alongside the French to free the European nation from the Nazis. As soon as the job was done and the African soldiers demanded their pay, the French turned their guns on them, killing hundreds on the 1st of December 1944. This is their story.
