I was just in France on a tour, and the tour guides and others we met in Alsace around Strasbourg seemed to still have appreciation for what the U.S. did in freeing France from the Nazis. I walked the ground where Audie Murphy won the CMH, went to a small but quality museum for the battle of the Colmar pocket, etc. Apparently one of the highly decorated U.S. soldiers who had participated had just visited a few weeks previous to our trip, and a big to-do was made of it, with honors from town mayors and councils and such.
I plan to visit Strasbourg next summer and will be sure to visit the museum you mentioned.
In the past couple of years, two elderly men from my church (one now deceased) were awarded the French Legion of Honor for their service in France during WWII. I think France is trying to recognize as many of these distinguished veterans as possible before they all die off.
