at first light on the 8th, col. demas t. craw and maj. pierpont m. hamilton went by jeep from an early beach landing, to port lyautey to consult the french commander (col. charles petit). the emissaries were to give him a diplomatic letter in the hopes of preventing any hostilities from starting. they went ashore as the fire of coastal batteries and warships and strafing french airplanes began. french troops near the kasbah directed them toward port lyautey, but as they neared the town under a flag of truce, a french machine gunner at a road fork outpost, stopped them with a burst of point-blank fire which killed col. craw. major hamilton was then conducted to the headquarters of col. petit, where his reception led to no conclusive reply. the pervading atmosphere at the french headquarters in port lyautey was one of sympathy toward the allied cause and distaste for the current fighting. what was lacking was an authorization from col. petit's superior to stop fighting. pending receipt of such authorization, the french at port lyautey continued to fight units of the 60th infantry regiment began disembarking troops and supplies from their ships just off the moroccan shore. the first wave of landing boats began circling and grouping together in preparation for the coming invasion. unfortunately, in the confusion of disembarkation, the first wave was delayed as they looked for guidance to the shoreline; hence the second wave pressed into the shore as planned, on time. as the second wave began their attack, the first wave started in toward their objectives. confusion was prevalent in the landing operation. once the first wave made it to shore, the french defenders began resisting with small arms fire as well as cannon fire from a fortress (kasbah ) overlooking the area. for all of the first day, the 60th regiment achieved their first objective of securing the beach, but had not secured their other objectives.
