French, Germans and Chicagoans

I missed this one, but it is good to know that some Frenchmen have respect for the US and are glad that they do not speak German. It might be a small minority, but once we have to save them from the Muslims even more might decide we are not so bad after all. Maybe.

LEATHERNECKM31: French, Germans and Chicagoans: "The group, France Will Never Forget was formed in 2003 and honored with a rose each of the 60,522 graves of all US soldiers who fell and were buried in France in WWI and WWII. The event was made possible by the generosity of hundreds of companies, associations, and individuals.

Legion_of_honor_2 In 2004 the organization enabled 100 United States war veterans to travel to France to be awarded the Legion of Honor by the President of France. In 2005 the organization single handedly financed a commemorative trip with first-class accommodations for 10 WWII US Veterans, last members of the platoon who liberated the Eiffel Tower. Two of them were awarded the Legion of Honor by the French Defense Minister. In 2006 The French will never Forget continued its efforts by participating in person and financially to several ceremonies awarding the Legion of Honor to several US veterans, this time on American soil."
