The day after Noor landed in Falmouth, Hitler toured Paris. (23 June 1940) The Fuehrer’s procesion of l=black convertibles prowled the empty, early morning streets, sped down Rue La Fayette to the Opera de Paris, the largest theater in the world; then on the Eglise de la Madeleine, a magnificent Roman Catholic church built as a tribute toNapoleon’s armies; and after that to the Champs-Elysees where Hitler, grabbing the windshield of his Mercedes, stood up to survey the vista. Ordinarily teeming with cars, cyclists, and pedestrians, the wide boulevard was deserted. As the convey swept past the Arc de Triomphe, Hitler got out and posed for a photo with the Eiffel Tower in the background. Looking slightly upward and toward his right, with the tower over his left shoulder, Hitler evinced no pleasure in the photo. Only solid blank pleasure. Crossing the Seine, Hitler paid a brief tribute to Napoleon’s tomb, then cruised through Montparnasee and the Latin Quarter, and Ile de la Cite and Norte-Dame, and scanned from the highest point of Montmartre the city that was at his disposal. . . . .
