I'm French soon joining the reserve then maybe the active duty in France. Like many French military personnels I have a tremendous respect for the best military in Europe, the British one,for whom we had first been a match then an ally and which served partly as a pattern for our fusiliers marins(marines), commandos marines(SBS), which both wear the british beret and our paras which come from the French SAS regiments.
My question is what do you think of the fact that some British units will march on the Champs-Elysees on the 14th of July? I know that those who will on the French side consider it as an honour and find it fairer than doing that with a military with almost no traditions or of lesser quality as it has been done before.
Thanks and Cheers for Crimea, WW1, WW2(north africa, france , norway, erythrea, syria, dakar, holland, germany, pacific, england, atlantic, germany),Korea, Suez, afghanistan, liberia, sierra leone, gulf war one, afghanistan, Bosnia, kosovo, red sea and all the other places where our soldiers, airmen and sailors fought side by side. You were a good enemy, you are a good ally.
