A lion in the zoo was lying in the sun licking its rear end when a visitor turned to the zoo keeper and said, "That's a docile old thing isn't it?" "No way," said the zoo keeper, "it's the most ferocious beast in the zoo. Why just an hour ago it dragged a Frenchman into the cage and completely devoured him." "Hardly seems possible" said the astonished visitor, "but why is it lying there licking its rear?" "The poor thing is trying to get the taste out of its mouth."

The only seat available on the train was directly adjacent to a well dressed middle aged French woman and the seat was being used by her dog. The weary traveler asked, "Ma'am, please move your dog. I need that seat." The French woman looked down her nose at the American, sniffed and said, You Americans. Your are such a rude class of people. Can't you see my little FiFi is using that seat?" The American walked away, determined to find a place to rest, but after another trip down to the end of the train, found himself again facing the woman with the dog. Again he asked, "Please, lady. May I sit there?". I'm very tired." The French woman wrinkled her nose and snorted "You Americans! Not only are you rude, you are also arrogant....Imagine!" The American didn't say anything else, he leaned over, picked up the dog, tossed it out the window of the train and sat down in the empty seat. The woman shrieked and railed, and demanded that someone defend her honor and chastise the American. An English man sitting across the aisle spoke up indignantly "You know,sir, you Americans do seem to have a penchant for doing the wrong thing. You eat holding the fork in the wrong hand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of the road. And now, Sir, you've thrown the wrong bitch out the window."

A Frenchman, an American, and a Brit were all busy getting drunk in Saudi Arabia when the cops burst in. They were soon sentenced to death, but through good lawyers, the three men were able to reduce their sentence to life. As luck would have it, it was a Saudi holiday, so the judge said, "Because it's a holiday you will each recieve 20 lashes and be let go. It is customary to grant one wish before punishment. The Brit thinks and says, "Strap a pillow on my back." They do, but it only holds for 10 lashes. The Frenchman sees this, and requests two pillows on his back. These only hold for 15 lashes. The judge turns to the American and says "Because you are from such a respectable country, you get 2 wishes." The American replies, "I wish to be flogged 100 times, not 20." The judge thinks this is very honerable and asks "And your second?" The American answers "Strap the Frenchman to my back."

A cannibal went into the butcher shop to buy some brains for dinner. She saw that American and British brains were $4.95 per lb and French brains were $450.00 per lb.

I would rather have a German division in front of me than a French one behind me!

If you have a French division behind you, it's probably that you are trying to run away from it!

As I have a French mother-in-law, I am predisposed to believing all such slanders against the French, but this doesn't seem to ring true. Patton served in France in both World Wars and his "War as I Knew It" has a number of warm anecdotes about his experiences with the French. In addition, he had the French 2d Armored Division assigned to him during three separate periods. He complained long and loud each time they were taken away from him.

Patton was fluent in French and enjoyed socializing with the French people. He thought highly of several French officers, especially General Juin (who advised Patton on where best to penetrated the Siegfried Line) and General Giraud. Giraud had earlier served in the Metz garrison and provided Patton valuable advice as to how best the Third Army should attack it. In return, Patton made sure that his 4th Armored Division sought out and rescued Giraud's family, whom the Germans were holding prisoner in the vicinity of Weimar.

Patton's wartime memoirs are full of acerbic, candid and distinctly non-PC observations, but I didn't see any disparaging comments about the French army. On the contrary, when the 2d Armored (French) and 4th Infantry (US) Divisions arrived in Paris, Patton was tickled to hear the French troops had proudly announced to the press that they were still part of the Third Army (much to their disgust, they had to be transferred to the First Army to accomodate their participation in Paris' liberation).

The only time he mentions problems with the French was, during the drive on Argentan when General LeClerc heatedly complained that he was not being allowed to attack fast enough - never a type of complaint to upset Patton's temperment. "In spite of a little rough talk, we parted friends," Patton concluded.

The only other time he mentions anything remotely critical of the Fench Army was when he related a dinner conversation he had with an old WW I friend, French General Koechlin-Schwartz, who had been a leading instructor at the Army General Staff School at Langres. Patton asked him why he thought the French Army performed so poorly in 1940. Koechlin-Schwartz blamed it on the French Army' emphasis on the defense during the 1930s. And that's as critical a passage as I could find.

So, in my humble opinion, the OP just doesn't seem to fit with what we know of Patton.
