Inaugurated in 2002 on the Quai Branly promenade, the memorial consists of three luminous columns in the colours of the French flag on which parade the names of combatants and victims of the Algerian war and the fighting of Morocco and Tunisia from 1952 to 1964\. On the ground, a dedication recalls "The memory of the fighters who died for France [...] and that of all the members of the auxiliary forces killed after the ceasefire in Algeria, many of whom have not been identified".
