Hi /pol/
What do you think about the french army?

where are the white flags

Could be worse. You guys definitely have a stigma though.

>>70338784

French Foreign Legionaries are some of the best soldiers in the world.

As for the rest of the military?

Meh, don't know, don't care. The French military is absolutely based when commanded by competent individuals. Their military reputation has been tarnished by incompetent leadership for over 100 years.

>>70338784
They smugly occupied germany in ww1 and ww2, after both times being saved/ carried by the rest of the world. If there's a third world war I can't see it being any different.

North Korean super soldiers will roflstomp France along with the rest of Europe, hopefully.

Some decent assets, soldiers good as any other soldiers I suppose. Overall WesternEuroNATOcountry/10

Also shouldn't those be German vehicles?

Amazing over its entire history, and it was very well respected by Americans (because of Lafayette) up until 1940.

Bad reputation in america for getting slaughtered and surrendering/retreating.

Maybe in ww2 they were bailed out by the other allied powers but one of the reasons the French were so hesitant to focus on a more offensive military doctrine after the first world war was because of the massive casualties they suffered in the first. (i.e. Verdun) Let's not forget that one of the reasons the British and French were able to move so maybe of their troops out of Dunkirk was due to a French force holding off advancing German troops at the rear until the majority of allied soldiers were out of harms way. Yes, it was a shitfest after that for the French army but please give credit where its due.

Nobody cares about the French army nor is it worth reading about in a vague critical format, they're irrelevant.

It's pretty good. Shame about the FAMAS though, such a beautiful rifle.

It looks good on parade, with the arc d'triumph as a backdrop.

France has a good military. It isn't a superpower, but it doesn't need to be.

FFL is fucking based.
Pic related, this dude was a legionary who returned home when the war started. He is a certified Serb remover btw.
Also, historically Grande Armee is the second best army in the history of mankind, Wermacht beats it,but it is a close second.

what happened in Dunkirk is that Hitler never ordered a ground assault. Dunkirk was supposed to be flattened by the Luftwaffe but the Germans overestimated its effectiveness when it came to raw killing numbers
>>
Lol surprised they don't need to fly an EU flag beside them too

>>70340826
I thought it was common knowledge that the French military is pretty good. But because they surrendered to Germany once they keep getting memed. Like that story about the Welsh guy who shagged a sheep, they only talk about the failure.

>>
>>70341288
That's true, but in retrospect I still believe that was a smart move given how quickly the advancing German armed columns were moving relative to their supply lines/lines of communication. The German army as a whole was in danger of being outflanked at that point, putting the whole operation at risk. Guederians panzer units definitely needed a breather but it's interesting to speculate how the course of the war could have changed had they continued their advance straight towards the coast.
