Two bodyguards are his shadows. Death threats, he says, are part of the daily routine.

In 1957, when Rozanne LeJeanne Ridgway joined the United States Foreign Service, women were not particularly welcome, she recalls. ''There was real doubt about whether a woman was serious about a career,'' the diplomat said recently. ''One was asked whether one was engaged, did one intend to marry soon.

The French Foreign Ministry today protested what it called the ''unacceptable character'' of comments on French politics made to a newspaper by the departing United States Ambassador, Evan Galbraith. The protest, which was made to the American charge d'affairs, John Maresca, followed the publication today in the rightist daily Figaro of an interview given by Mr. Galbraith on July 8. Mr. Galbraith, who left Monday, was quoted as having said that the governing Socialists were likely to lose their parliamentary majority in the elections next year and that the Communist Party was ''sort of outside the law'' and should not be allowed to participate in the Government, as it did from 1981 to 1984.

The disclosure followed a report in today's issue of The New York Times citing an Army memorandum that described the handling of the victims of the truck bombing of a Marine barracks in Beirut in 1983 as indefensible ''medically, morally or ethically.'' The European Command ''now has an operational plan for these contingencies,'' the Pentagon said in a statement. The plan identifies medical teams, hospitals and specific equipment to care for those wounded in terrorist attacks, the Pentagon said.

A California man who is one of four charged with selling Navy secrets to the Soviet Union may be indicted late this month on additional espionage charges, according to a high-ranking law-enforcement official and to his attorney. A San Francisco grand jury will probably accuse the man, Jerry A. Whitworth, of new counts of selling secret military documents to the Soviet Union, said the official, who asked not to be identified. Jim Larson, one of Mr. Whitworth's lawyers, confirmed that the new espionage charges were expected. He said Mr. Whitworth would plead not guilty to the new charges, as he had the earlier one. Mr. Whitworth, a retired Navy communications specialist, has been indicted on one count of conspiracy to commit espionage.

SHULTZ, IN HONOLULU, DENOUNCES NEW ZEALAND

Date: 18 July 1985

By Shirley Christian, Special To the New York Times

Secretary of State George P. Shultz renewed criticism of New Zealand today, accusing it of undermining the United States nuclear deterrent and weakening its own security. He referred to New Zealand's refusal in February to allow an American warship to make a port call on the ground that the vessel might be carrying nuclear weapons. ''If New Zealand's objective was to enhance specific security and reduce the nuclear danger, it has acted against its own interests,'' Mr. Shultz said in a speech at the East-West Center on the campus of the University of Hawaii. He spoke at the end of a two-week tour that took him to Southeast Asia, Australia and the South Pacific.
