Thank you very much Todd ,

 

We know what you did for us. France saved america from the British during the independance war of USA and The United States We helped in 1917-1918 and in 1941-1945 to win our liberty against the Nazis and the French owe much to the U.S. for that! I love my two countries.

 

God Bless America and God bless our friendship

Hi Vee-

I know that we also share a love of movies and I loved the character of the French officer who fought with the American colonial army in The Patriot, starring Mel Gibson. Even though Hollywood plays loosely with historical fact this was the first movie about The American Revolution that I can remember seeing that actually made a point of including the very important military contributions of of The French Navy in securing the

final victory.
