Reminds me of a cousin in the navy lost at the Anzio beachhead. His coke bottle glasses made him 4F for the army but the navy took him. True patriot.

A lot of Americans think that the French are ungrateful snobs but I found that to be untrue. The above is a good example. When visiting there a few years ago we drove up Liberty Road, the road that Patton's Third Army took liberating France. It runs from the beach at Normandy, across France, all the way to Bastogne in Belgium. Every kilometer there is a commemorative marker at the side of the road.
