9. "We gave the French uniforms, jeeps, trucks, supplies, ammunition - everything."

     We didn't give the French these things. We lent them, under Lend-Lease, a 1aw passed by our Congress as "An Act to Promote the Defense of the United States". We lent military equipment and supplies to our ally.

     Where else could the French have gotten uniforms, guns, ammunition, supplies ? From the Germans?

     A Frenchman aimed with an 03 rifle could kill Germans. It was wiser for us to turn out weapons and uniforms to arm the French than to turn out additional American soldiers.
