Maureen, I agree that it is a bit pretentious, but it was done. Remember "Captain Mannering" in "Dad's Army"? As regarding those who flew for the French, who knows? They would come under French Rules, not American, and I suspect that most of them would have come home in civilian clothes. Those who actually joined up from France would have come under the same US rules as those who joined in the US, I expect. Talk to me later about the diseases if you wish. Doc
