A British gentleman in his eighties arrived in Paris by plane. At the French
customs desk he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on
bag. "You have been to France before, Monsieur?" the customs officer asked
sarcastically.
The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.
"Then you should know enough to 'ave your passport ready," the customs
officer said.
The elderly gentleman replied, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to
show it."
"Impossible! The British always have to show their passports on arrival in
France !"
The Man gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained,
"Well, when I came ashore on the Beach on D-Day in 1944, I couldn't find any
f*cking Frenchmen to show it to...!!"
