A large group of French soldiers are moving down a road when they hear a voice call from behind a sand dune: "One United States Soldier is better than ten Frenchmen!"

The French commander quickly sends 10 of his best soldiers over the dune, whereupon a gun battle breaks out and continues for a few minutes, then silence. The voice then calls out "One United States Soldier is better than one hundred Frenchmen!"

Furious, the French commander sends his next best 100 troops over the dune and instantly a huge firefight commences. After 10 minutes of battle, again silence. The American voice calls out again "One United States Soldier is better than one thousand Frenchmen!"

The enraged French Commander musters one thousand fighters and sends them across the dune. Cannons, rockets, and machine guns ring out as a huge battle is fought. Then silence. Eventually one wounded French fighter crawls back over the dune and with his dying words tells his commander, "Don't send any more men--it's a trap. There are two of them."

Fair play, Mr. Krempasky. Fair play.

The first itme I heard that joke it was about the Campbells and McDonald's in Scotland.. but I like this version a lot better!

This is definitely a work of fiction...we all know that no French commander would send his troops into battle...he'd grab the first piece of white fabric he could find to make a white flag of surrender from it.

Two Americans.! For shame, for shame! Those low-down, double-crossing, dirty, simplistic cowboys.. harharhar..
