So when does the statuate of limitations on French gratitude expire? I mean, the Americans / British / Canadians landed in 1944. As far as I am aware, only the US constantly whines about the French somehow owing the them (the US) for all eternity.
I think that even if the Germans hadn't been kicked out in 1944, they would be gone by now and the French would still be the French, speaking French. Only difference is that they wouldn't have to put up with the tired old refrain, "we saved your ass twice".
