I worked with this old guy that was a Cannoneer for Patton. He captured a German Major and the Company Commander took credit for it. He got frostbite on his toes during the Battle of the Bulge but could not collect because he could not prove it happened in the service.

He also would walk into a French bar room with a pistol and say "Aligner voux" or "Line up" and he would rob them all. Then I knew a gut that travelled in Europe, He told me France was the only place they tried to cheat him. I wonder why?
