 | | On June 9, 1954, Krim met with Ben Boulaid in Algiers, then with Boudiaf and Didouche, who succeeded in convincing him of the necessity of a third force. |
 | | Nine heads were appointed, thereafter to be known as "the Nine historical (chiefs)": Hocine Ait Ahmed, Rabah Bitat, Ahmed Ben Bella, Mustapha Ben Boulaid, L'arbi Ben M'hidi, Mohamed Boudiaf, Didouche Mourad, Mohamed Kheider, and Krim Belkacem. |
 | | Krim, being the only one who founded an operational maquis and one of the "interiors" ("interiors" designates the leaders that actually fought the revolution from within the country), would have appeared to become the most noted of the personalities, but this was not to be the case. |
