I wonder if the photographer told all the French women in the photo on page 9 to put their hands in their pockets. I’m always nagging my kids to take them out!

Page 9: I always found that ol' grenade-dangling-from-the-belt style quite intriguing. Not much around these days that really compares.

I suppose if you're the French-Resistance version of the Rosie-the-Riveter generation and you are actually dangling grenades from your belt in a war zone, it probably helps to keep trigger-happy onlookers calm if you do keep your hands pocketed. Different etiquettes for different venues.
