A group of Americans, all retired teachers, recently went to France on a tour. Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane. At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on.

"You have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked sarcastically.

Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France previously. "Then you should know enough to have your passport ready."


The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."

"Impossible. Americans always have to show your passports on arrival in France!"


The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he said, "Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-day in 1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to."

Touche!

I heard this one : USAF plane lands in France in the late 70's, the French air traffic controller is very rude and makes them get off the plane far away from the area where they need to be. When they are walking across to the terminal, French police stop them and start questioning them, making it very plain that American military personnel are not welcome in France. Finaly one of the crew members, an old Master Sergant asks one of the French guys "Spreken ze Deutsch?" (Do you speak German?) When the puzzled Frenchman replies "Mais non" (well no), the master Sargant simply says "You're welcome" and walked away. Funny how soon people forget.......
