    A ha, ha

    An elderly gentleman of 83 arrived in Paris by plane. At the French
    customs desk, the man took a few minutes to locate his passport in
    his carry-on bag.
    "You have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer
    asked, sarcastically.
    The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.
    "Then you should know enough to have your passport ready."
    The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."
    "Impossible. Americans always have to show their 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 1944 to help
    liberate this country, I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to."

    It seems that the French could be a little kinder to the vets that saved their bacon.
