...constant wine flush on his cheeks and a towering reputation as a ladies' man, De Castries the soldier holds the high trust of his superiors (the late General de LaUre de Tassigny would never question a De Castries decision) and the admiration of his men, who often shout. "Here comes Cri-Cri [a diminutive for Christian]," when he runs up to lead a charge. "Allons " De Castries has been heard to shout back. "What the hell are you waiting for?

Across the country, children shout: "Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday!" When asked what happened to Friday, they scream: "He's out on a case!"
