PARIS
November 1944



My plane left Bromma airfield, heading west,
one day at the end of October 1944. My
destination was Paris, via London. In Paris I was to
confer with Allied representatives regarding
Sweden’s share in post-war reconstruction and
other problems. Paris was again a free city in a
free land, and even at that period one could safely
prophesy that the life of the Nazi empire would
be, not a thousand years, but little more than a
decade.

There are two episodes of my visit to Paris that
I shall always recollect with especial pleasure.
One was my meeting with General Eisenhower,
the other a luncheon at which the Swedish Consul
General in Paris, Raoul Nordling, was one of the
guests.
