Liberation of France . . . I've always felt that we should have made Germany's surrender conditional . . . that they continue to occupy France.

So a 20 acre military facility can go, apparently undetected, for 60 years in peacetime France... yet, some people are absolutely certain that there's nothing left to find in rather more trying conditions in Iraq...
Great point well made. Game, set and match to you!!

I am concerned that this will be viewed as a profound embarrassment for the French (it was right under their noses for 60 - odd years and they apparently had no idea it was there) and that they will use some clause of French law pertaining to National Historic Sites to wrest it from him, despite his legal ownership.Interesting to see what side their embarassment falls on. . .
. . .but, should push comes to shove. . .perhaps, Mr. Stern can claim some 'muslim' heritage so as to be protected by France's own political correctness ;:^)

Deserves a bump.
And Eric Rudolph evaded one of the largest manhunts in US history in a 2-3 county area of Western NC for 5 years, yet some people can't understand why we can't catch Osama, Mullah Omar and Al Zaqari in areas 1000 times larger, hostile and with language barriers......

although I admit I ain't et no snails yet.Don't bother. I sampled one once off a friend's plate, all I could taste was the garlic butter. The French will eat anything that walks, swims, flies, crawls, or slithers, the nastier the better it seems.

Amateur historian Gary found it in dense undergrowth after buying a German army map at a French car boot sale. I'd say his amateur status is in jeopardy.
To: Cap Huff
Hey, that is very interesting. Thanks for the ping.
