Anyone remember what Clarke had to say about the French soldiers, addmitedly lots of colonial troops there too, when they fought for the hills around Casino, it might be worth remembering what the Germans facing them had to say too...

For myself...Vive La France...

Would Dunkirk have been the success it was if not for Lille, and if not, then what of the future of Britain? Halifax perhaps, a treaty, followed then eventually by an American treaty...?

Some of my favorites -- not combat related, but more of the immediate post-surrender days with the U.S. 65th Infantry Division.

Great pictures and links Kai, thanks a million. It is too bad I didn't find this post sooner since some of the links have died since posted.
