Maybe because they have a knack for having someone pulling their irons out of the fire after being steamrolled, then acting like they would have done it anyway if they had a bit more time (De Gaulle was a puke like this), and then being to proud to admit that they were fucked if the good guys didn't help.
You know why French army rifles are such a great deal at surplus sales- they have never been fired and only dropped once!!
Hitler's troops embarrassed them so badly I am surprised they even had the termerity to call DeGaulle a *cough*General.
