1. My Great Grandfather (infantry) wounded in the leg at Verdun going 'over the top'. He was lucky actually he survived. Most of his unit did not.

2. My Great Uncle (Air Force, Recon Aircraft Photographer) who was wounded twice, once in WWII when his transport ship was mistakenly sunk by the RAF when they evacuated France in 1940. He and the survivors were strafed in the water by an allied aircraft. He was again severally wounded at Dien Bien Phu when his Aircraft Crash landed. Both his legs were crushed, He walked with a limp the rest of his life.

3. My Grandfather (infantry) saw combat in 1940, didn't get a scratch but spent most of the war as a German POW

4. My Father in Law (Paratrooper) who still wont talk about the what he saw in Lebanese Civil War, which should tell you everything...

I don't think some of you would be so quick to make fun of the French military had you been there with them.

I agrea with you mmarsh

I love the French ladies when they are saying Oui, Oui, Oui with an increasing pitch for every time they are repeating the Oui

I heard that the French women don't usually wear knickers.

On the downside, the continentals do not defuzz their pits! Hairy pits are not a nice feature!
