France Meets the USMC -- or -- A U. S. Marine in Bosnia

A funny thing happened to me yesterday at Camp Bondsteel (Bosnia):

A French army officer walked up to me in the PX, and told me he
thought we (Americans) were a bunch of cowboys and were going to
provoke a war. He said if such a thing happens, we wouldn't be able to
count of the support of France.

I told him that it didn't surprise me. Since we had come to France's
rescue in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and the Cold War, their
ingratitude and jealousy was due to surface at some point in the near
future anyway.

That is why France is a third-rate military power with a socialist
economy and a bunch of wimps for soldiers.

I additionally told him that America, being a nation of deeds and
action, not words, would do whatever it had to do, and France's
support was only for show anyway. Just like in ALL NATO exercises, the
US would shoulder 85% of the burden, as evidenced by the fact that the
French officer was shopping in the American PX, and not the other way
around.

He began to get belligerent at that point, and I told him if he would
like to, I would meet him outside in front of the Burger King and beat
his behind in front of the entire Multi-National Brigade East, thus
demonstrating that even the smallest American had more fight in him
than the average Frenchman.

He called me a barbarian cowboy and walked away in a huff.

With friends like these, who needs enemies?
