‘Konrad will certainly have a uniform — but which one?’ In August 1954, as debates are held on the establishment of a European Defence Community (EDC), cartoonist Fritz Behrendt takes an ironic look at the summary proposal of Pierre Mendès France, President of the French Council of Ministers and French Foreign Minister, regarding the possible rearmament of the Federal Republic of Germany (FRG).
