It’s a pity they didn’t show the same grit in 2 world wars

A bit of crass statement to make !

Go search on the internet to find out exactly how many French people , soldiers and civilians, actually lost their lives “defending their country”

Fair comment but in WW2 the Vichy government was hardly a model of resistance, as an example a higher percentage of Jews were rounded up and deported to Germany from Vichy controlled areas than from the German controlled areas. Look past De Gaulle and his propaganda and the French record in WW2 is not one of great valour
