  When the Union Jack fluttered down over Gambia on February 18, 1965, it marked the end of the last outpost of British colonial rule in West Africa. Thousands of Gambians crowded into McCarthy Square in Bathurst, the capital, for the ceremony. One young boy in his best clothes cried out, "It's just like New Year's Day."

  The ceremony followed the pattern used by many other British colonies in Africa when they become independent nations. Just before midnight, British Royal Marines marched in solemn half step. They took the salute of the queen's representatives. The crowd stood at attention as the band played "God Save the Queen." The British flag was lowered slowly. The lights were dimmed. As the new blue, green, and red flag of Africa's smallest independent nation was raised high, the crowd gave a mighty shout. Fireworks burst over the bay. Drums were pounded.
