The thing is that, during the presence of this army in Europe, Eisenhower himself got to hear about more, and more, and more, and MORE local women complaining of rape by your soldiers, and he decided to put an end to this behaviour from his OWN ARMY by court-martialing GIs responsible for that.

Let's not take murders in consideration here, only the rapes.
Following the 17.000 or 18.000 rapes perpetrated by American soldiers on English, French, and German women (the high majority of them of course), 84% of all American soldiers who got the death sentence were black. Black soldiers represented only 10% of all soldiers enlisted in the American army at the time. Numbers speak well, don't they ?
I'm sure that leaves no doubt how your army made fun while in Europe, nor why some appear not to like you a lot to this day. But feel free to keep up appearances shouting from the rooftops that white American soldiers and ******s have always been equal to each other of course.

God, your fathers must be turning in their grave like a ventilator fan.

Good to know that Eisenhower did not encourage this kind of behavior and some got death sentences-harsh treatment isn't it?
I guess Americans have dick too.
On another hand France should had been liberated by Russians there would be less to complain about or maybe you have second thought about liberation at all?

Thanks for those historical facts.
Im actually surprised that it wasn't 80% blacks vs 20% whites.
France has nothing to be proud of as far as ww2.
It used to be complex issue and makes me sort of wonder how history is thought there.

What you wrote still reads like sort typical french cliché....good they let de Gaulle march into Paris or is it?.
