Whakaotihia te rerenga e whai ake nei: I muri i te 1st Foreign Parachute Battalion 1e BEP i riro i te 1st Foreign Parachute Regiment 1e REP, i tukuna a Pierre mo te whakahau i te 6 o Hui-tanguru 1956, kaua ki te mahi hei tuarua-i-te-mana, i tenei wa ki a Colonel Albert Brothier i whakaarohia e ia engari i tino pouri. I whakahaeretia te reihana i te 1 o Akuhata 1956 i muri i te whakarite o te
pakanga i Ihipa; I eke a Pierre i te Oketopa 31, heoi, ko ana tirohanga me ana whakapae mo tenei taunga whenua i mohiotia. Ko tenei taputapu ataahua o te whawhai i riro hei ope taua kaore i te mahi i tetahi take pai. Heoi anō, he misioni hou i herea ki a Pierre, ka mutu ki te whakaeke i Algeria, he misioni pirihimana e kore e hiahiatia e te tangata, e pai ana ranei, engari he misioni e tika ana kia tutuki pai. I riro ano i a Pierre te mana o te 1st Foreign Parachute Regiment i te Poutu-te-rangi 1957.
