[Groesbeck Hurricane]

Call me whatever you want. Flame me if you have to but keep in mind I have French relatives and I have some French blood in me:

The standard French soldier I did not find as someone I wanted at my back. The French version of Special Forces troops I did admire. They are as professional as it gets.

I would always choose British, Belgian, German soldiers to guard my back. I've heard good things about some Polish troops, Georgian troops, ROK troops (scary stuff there), and Turkish troops.

Read Major General Von Mellinthin. I believe he came back into print. I have probably misspelled his name but the book is something like Panzer Battles. Very insightful.

The French soldiers lost because their government gave out on them years before. Not sure what has change, governments ALWAYS give out on their soldiers at some point. I can't even go to a VA and I am an honorably discharged veteran who served during a couple of engagements and wars and have twice as many medals as years served. Never saw combat though.
