Happy Bastille Day!

[gridlore]

And if anyone wants to use the "cheese eating surrender monkeys" line here, I would remind them that after the fall of France (due to an over-reliance on the Maginot Line, not any failing of the French Army) a huge number of French citizens continued to resist. The passed intelligence to the Allies, sabotaged rail lines, aided downed Allied aviators, and risked torture and death in the face of overwhelming odds in order to fight the hated Boche. Thousands of Maquis and other Resistance fighters did die, and thousands more Free French Forces paid the ultimate price to liberate the Motherland.

Viva la France!
