"A Marshal of France never surrenders; we do not parley under fire"

  After hearing all the fudd jokes about “got a French WW2 rifle for sale, never fired and only dropped once.” I actually learned about the French bravery during WW2 it’s kinda sickening. They sacrificed and fought to the last for British soldiers to escape. When facing certain death, they said “this is our country, WE will die for it, not you.” To the British soldiers.

    I have a french ww2 rifle (MAS-36) and adrian helmet and they are genuinely my favorite pieces. Those machines killed fascists.
