R.I.P. Scout26
So all French jokes aside, when a country that has been a friend and ally of ours to the extent they have asks for some taxi service, I have no qualms about helping them out.
I remember them as the country that wouldn't allow US overflights of their territory when we were going to bomb Libya a while back . . .
And I remember them as the country that helped us break free of British tyranny.
Actually, France isn't a part of NATO. Remember DeGaulle and his hissy fit in 1966?
