France honors Americans

From CNN:

PARIS, France (AP) -- France has bestowed its most prestigious honor on 99 American veterans, thanking them at a pomp-filled military ceremony for helping to free Europe from Nazism 60 years ago.

I guess they wanted to put the medals to use since they don't have anyone there to give them to. No point in them sitting around collecting dust!

I'm really sick of the whole France = Pussies thing, especially in America.

The French and Polish provided major resistance in the second World War. In fact, without their resistance a lot of major operations would've never ran nearly as smooth after and with D-Day. We were counting on them to take out various units, including units upon trains which, if they would've made it, would've been a major blow to the allies.

The French are a lot of things, including assholes, but their not pussies.

Ya, but it still made for a good joke. Not sure why they had to wait 60 years to give the medals out.

Yeah we have a woman who comes in all the time and makes everyone run around finding shit for her. There's one French woman who comes in that doesn't speak clear English. Then she gets pissed off at us when we ask her to repeat herself. The French are just nasty people.

When I was in Montreal there were a lot of rude French-speaking people. It was pretty weird because everyone was either incredibly friendly or incredibly rude. No middle ground whatsoever
