“The whores of Place Pigalle showed more resistance then the average frenchie “

A dear friend of mine was French Reistance. He was 16 years old when he started. He and his family lived in the South of France near the Spanish border. They would help smuggle American and Brit pilots out of France so they could live and fly and fight the NAZIs again. If anyone of them were caught the whole family would have been tortured for information and then executed.

Do not sell the average Frenchman short. Some of their leaders have been craven and corrupt. But what the hell, look at what we have today.
