Organisation armée secrète (OAS) flag
The Commando Delta organizations were assassination teams under the control of the Organisation armée secrète (OAS) in Algeria during the early 1960s. The teams "interdicted" European neighborhoods by assassinating Muslims who entered. The Commandos Delta were organized by Roger Degueldre in 1961. The "Delta" signified Degueldre, a lieutenant who deserted from the French Foreign Legion in 1961.[1]
The Commandos Delta were also responsible for the assassination of persons considered "soft" or traitors to the cause of French Algeria. However, a certain number of killings were alleged to have been done by the Service de Documentation Extérieure et de Contre-Espionnage (SDECE) security forces to discredit the OAS, carried out by the Service d'Action Civique or the Red Hand. As a result, it is not possible to clearly define which actions were ascribable to the Commandos Delta in the chaotic situation of the time.
