French Armed Forces

And apparently, the disease almost, by a report by a 14th century account written by Geoffrey Baker, the disease almost stripped the seaports of Dorset of their inhabitants.

It was also subjected to attacks by raiding French and Spanish forces.

Since the Middle Ages, Bridport's been associated with the production of rope and nets.

King John ordered that Bridport make as many ropes for ships, both large and small, and as many cables as it can.

Their modus operandi is elimination by gunshot, parcel bomb, accident in a sabotaged vehicle, sabotaged or booby-trapped aircraft, a poisoned cup of tea or Nescafé or glass of water, et cetera.

To avoid being naive, let us remember that it is precisely within this omnivorous vision that deputies and senior officers are instrumentalized in intoxicating statements, such as the case of General Michael Langley, head of AFRICOM in April twenty twenty-five, and the case of General Le Quantrec, former Chief of the Defense Staff of the French Armed Forces, who stated that Europe will one day have the obligation to return to Africa to restore democracy and administration.

This is the case of the French general and member of the European Parliament, Christophe Gomat, who described the situation in Burkina Faso in the European Parliament on June eighteenth, twenty twenty-six as, and I quote, "A dramatic failure." End of quote.

By describing this country as, and I quote, "A sanctuary for Islamic terrorist groups and organized crime." End of quote.

What is the king but five and twenty thousand?

To us no more; nay, not so much, Lord Bardolph: For his divisions, as the times do brawl, Are in three heads: one power against the French, And one against Glendower; perforce a third Must take up us.

So is the unfirm king In three divided; and his coffers sound With hollow poverty and emptiness.

That he should draw his several strengths together And come against us in full puissance Need not be dreaded.

If he should do so, He leaves his back unarmed, the French and Welsh Baying him at the heels.

Never fear that.

Who is it like should lead his forces hither?

The Duke of Lancaster and Westmoreland; Against the Welsh, himself, and Harry Monmouth: But who is substituted 'gainst the French I have no certain notice.

We were kept at the British rest camp at Cherbourg until the 7th, and then entrained for Saint-Germain near Lyon, where we rested from the 9th to the 10th.

From there we went on to Faenza along the beautiful French and Italian Riviera.

The arrangements throughout the journey for feeding the men and giving them hot tea, etc., were not perfect, but on the whole we did not fare badly.

We arrived at Faenza on the 13th, and we will always cherish a kindly remembrance of this well-arranged rest camp and of the staff in charge there.

There are already two more Jewish battalions formed in England, and one of these, the 39th, was under orders to embark when I left Plymouth.

Presumably it will arrive in Egypt soon.

I hear of other battalions for service with the Jewish brigade being formed in New York, and the Adjutant-General informed me that it was probable that the French authorities would transfer the Polish Jews now serving in France to this brigade.

I am told that there are several hundred young Jews waiting to enlist in Palestine.

The region was unsettled following the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, and armed groups frequently moved through the area amid confusion over new borders and political control.

A large group of Arab fighters arrived at Tel Hai, reportedly searching for French troops they believed might be hiding there.

Tension rose quickly.

What began as an attempted search turned into a violent firefight.

Com- complex cutting edge things I survey.

And also, as a secondary mission, if we see any French, we might fuck them the up.

Mm.

I don't know if there's that many, uh, much of a French population in Ohio, but you know, times are changing.

More people are coming to America to seek refuge and freedom.

Ohio is kind of known as boring and suburban, largely paved over.

If you n- If you notice there, through that thicket of oak trees, beyond that brook, a- do you see that, uh, uh, area where there's two gas stations and four different fast food places right off the highway?

Yes, I see it.

There was no RAF until later.

Or it was from the French or something.

But it was...

It...

settler farmers.

Yes.

I suppose it's sort of parallel to the French in Vietnam more.

Kind of, yeah.
