The French fought very valiantly during WWI. They more than anyone else managed to stop the Germans. And as bad as high level leadership and doctrine was among most of the combatants of WWI, arguably the British were worse than the French.
Huh-huh. The Greeks wiped out Mussolini’s army and the British his navy and made him a non-player in the Axis. I will concede that the French were responsible for the highest incidence of STDs among German troops.

If so, did you not see I was writing about The Great War, more commonly known as World War One? Not WWII?
