ARRIVING IN FRANCE
Touche'!
The elderly American gentleman arrived in Paris by plane.
At French Customs, he fumbled for his passport.
"You've been to France before, monsieur?" the customs
officer asked sarcastically. The old gent admitted that he
had been to France previously.
"Zen, you should know enough to 'ave your passport ready for
inspection."
The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have
to show it."
"Impossible. You Americans alwayz 'ave to show your
passports on arrival in France!"
The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look.
Then he quietly explained.
"Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in '44, I
couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to."
