We all need a modern-day Charles Martel to lead this war. Unfortunately, we have elected a Pierre Laval to lead the US.

The French Soldier and average citizen has never been a surrender monkey.
In WW2 you had to look higher up the chain of command to find those.

That's been my take for quite a while - the incompetent French generals let their guys down. Gamelin and Weygand were doddering old men still fighting WWI.
