I admire the French attitude towards petty bureaucracy.
At Incirlik, the Cousins decided that your 'orders' (those things without which Spams can't even wipe their own backsides, it seems) had to be stamped with some liquor rationing nonsense; every time you bought a bottle in the Class 6, the check-out person would fill in the ration allocation box, to ensure that you didn't buy too much.....
Our gallant French allies had a straightforward solution to the Cousins' bureaucracy. They just issued themselves with as many NATO travel orders as they needed - and made their own 'liquor stamp'.........
Allez la France!!
