Dear zapiks;where did you find this piece of "historical " manure???

Of all the people you Americans should be the last one to call French cowards!Their victories agains British vere very important for you gaining your indenpendence!

France under Napoleon had ruled militarily Europe for years.

In the WWI Germany didn`t wipe out the French?Who told you that?A four years of trench warfare with insignificant gains in teritory on both sides is a "French defeat"???You ,conviniently forgot to mention that on the Western Front both British and French were fighting Imperial Germany!

WWII??A favourite claim about French cowardice is ;France surrendered!But,so did everybody else!Germany had conquered and defeated the whole Europe,routed 450000 British in France...Britain was saved only because of their best ally;The Chanel,their natural moat!Remember,since 1941 85% of fighting was on the Eastern front against Russia.But,of course,you have saved the world,bla,bla,bla...The truth is that first contact of American troops with the Germans was a catastrofe!For you.

Indochina???Ha,ha,ha....It must be the French that were throwing into the sea all those helicopters in Saigon in 1975,right?!

...Britain was saved only because of their best ally;The Chanel,their natural moat

Well perhaps you should build one yourself next time and stop letting the Germans in!!!.
Oh at least the British fought it out and and survived to fight another day and had an insignificantly small army who gave the Germans a bloody nose at Arras (the only real serious fighting done in the campaign!!!) compared to the millions of Frenchman who thought it better to surrender to the Germans than fight it out!!!
oh and what victories in the War of Independence we wooped your ass at the Battle of the Saintes 1783 under Admiral Rodney the greatest naval victory ever, French sea power was diminshed forever therefore French involvement was a farce!! Britian didn't want the American colonies anymore anyway it was finding more new territories of more value so they were going to give it up anyway.
