There’s a lot of disparaging of French courage on this site, but if you read anything about WWI - crazy brave!

Well said. The French army was also the rear guard so the British could retreat to then evacuate from Dunkirk.

The French Army mutinied twice in WW1. In 1915 and 1917. My grandfather was an America veteran of WW1. He hated them.
