A REAL CLASSIC !!!!
An elderly gentleman of 83 arrived in Paris by plane.
At the French customs desk, the man took a few minutes
to locate his passport in his carry-on bag.
"You have been to France before, monsieur?" the
Customs officer asked, sarcastically.
The old man admitted he had been to France previously.
"Then you should know enough to have your passport
ready," the French official smirked.
The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't
have to show my passport."
"Impossible. Americans always have to show their
passports on arrival in France," the Frenchman replied
incredulously.
The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard
look. Then he quietly explained.
"Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day on
June 6, 1944, to help liberate this country, I couldn't
find any Frenchmen to show it to!!!!!!!
