Oh ! And where did that take place ?
In France ? Where's that country ?
Thanks teacher, I had never heard of that.
Seriously
, if you read my post above, you'll understand I'm not against the remembering of such an event, but more against its recurrence. We may be humble in here, but we don't go celebrating the liberation of the Elsass-Lothringen territory each and every year, some are just busy enough not to care about that any more, period.
