It occurred to me, as I pondered how determined Plzeň is to remember the army that liberated her (see last post), that perhaps the United States should have a similar day of remembrance. After all, without the aid of France, the United States would have been a British colony as long as Canada, New Zealand, and Australia.
Perhaps the United States should celebrate “Thank You France!” Day. Maybe on 2 July, or some other date of significance from that conflict. It would seem only right.
Just an afterthought.
