 The loss of many "ultra" leaders who were imprisoned or transferred to other areas did not deter the French Algeria militants.Sent to prison in Paris and then paroled, Lagaillarde fled to Spain.There, with another French army officer, Raoul Salan, who had entered clandestinely, and with Jean-Jacques Susini, he created the Organisation armée secrète (Secret Army Organization, OAS) on December 3, 1960, with the purpose of continuing the fight for French Algeria.
