Well of course there will be sharing of language. Many english words are derived from french also. That is not the point. Of course the word football in the sense we are talking about can hardly be described as Americanese. *What I really mean here is that America is now the motivational force behind the English language in the world for obvious reasons.*
I'm sure the french military understand the possible benefits of clear and concise radio communications with their allies. I would have thought that there must be some better reason for them not to take this advantage other than, that they are just being french.
