    Well, my names is clement, i am 15 year old and i am french. I like history and as a French (and a patriot) i am very interested in world war II as French position may have never been so complex in all the history of France. So i think i can provide good informations on every aspects of France during the war but i am sorry, my english isn't perfect so i will probably make mystakes while posting.

    Bienvenue! Je suis Americaine, mais j'ai appris francais en ecole -- il y a beaucoup de temps! J'ai visite a France deux fois -- 1. a Paris et environs le printemps 2005; et, 2. j'ai fait une grande randonne en Alsace l'ete 2006.

    No need to worry about not being "perfect" in English :)

    Seeing as how my command of the French language is non-existant, you'll get no complaint from me on your ability to speak English, Clement.

    Welcome.

    Welcome Clems, I have already read some of your contributions. your English is very good considering your young age and the fact that it is a foreign language. I didn't notice you were so young. I wish more teenagers on this forum had your maturity and language skills.

    Bonjour, Clems! I'm from a bilingual country, but I'm afraid I'm not one of them! You do very well. I'm glad to see someone of your age so interested in WWII. I already learned some things I didn't know from your first posts re French Expeditionery Force. Well Done!

    Salut Clément!

    Welcome aboard and don't worry about your language skills, I'm a furriner too and I have bags of fun correcting the natives, hahahaha

    I happen to own a French Aide-Mémoire de l'Officier d'Infanterie of 1940, and if you froggies had gone by that book you would have ran off le Boche to Vladivostok!

    The other day I saw again "Paris Brûle T'il?" Paris brûle-t-il? (1966)

    I hope you're not related to the Director :D

    Good on ya! Must have been an ancestor of mine!
