prOOne,

Surely you mean the 'Battle over the coast, somewhere down south'?

Don't want to upset our Bosch friends, what?

The french, now and always will be the real enemy!

Je suis un loser!!

Nelson must be spinning so fast we may have found the replacement for nuclear power.:mad:

Ever visited the battlefield at Waterloo? You come away with the distinct impression the little fella won. Thank god the battle of Trafalgar was sea....... :rolleyes:

Are we allowed to mention Mers el Kebir and Oran? :E

How many Frenchmen does it take to defend Paris?.........






They don't know, they've never tried....

Some French know how to fight.

On 1 February 1943 General LeClerc brought his meagre forces,under constant attack by German forces, from Lake Chad to join Montgomery at Tripoli. He was handed over to a Supply Officer (later General Sir Charles Richardson) who sought to ascertain the re-equipment necessary to enable the French to continue fighting.

"And he produced the tiniest piece of paper,notepaper, I've ever seen - the only bit he'd been able to keep for 2000 miles or whatever.

He looked at this and said "Deux Camions / Cinq Mitrailleuses" and so it went on - very modest indeed"

Maybe the Dutch would like us to attend Medway 350 next year.

We can then celebrate the achievements of Tromp and DeRuyter!

Quite witty...

Same old jingoistic bull$hit this sort of thread always attracts. In fact, I think most of the comments here have been cut and pasted from previous threads. We spend far too much time in this country dwelling on our past glories. History is, of course, important, but I'm not sure a war, 200 years ago, with a country that is now our ally, is worth making such a song and dance about.
