From the article I read, a Frenchmen was the first person to jump on the attacker, followed by 3 Americans.

Hit the road
Catch a buzz in Amsterdam
Kick Some Ass!
Roll into Paris
Get drunk and get laid

Infinite payback for their efforts during our American Revolution.

Yup.

We would have lost really really badly if the French chose not to intervene.

Whenever you have the urge to defend the surrender monkeys…DON’T! Jesus Fucking Christ nobody can take a joke any more. You guys are trying to white-knight France’s reputation.

A country that had to have a woman show their men how to fight. And, for her troubles they make her the patron saint of France…you know after they burned her at the stake first.

A country that turned on the Knights Templar for their money…you know because “it’s good to be the king”. Until you can’t pay your bills.

A country that was a playground for the Third Reich.

This is soooo much more fun than enjoying the fact that a tragedy was averted, while enjoying a cheap low-brow joke.

Fucking French. Go Team 'Merica World Police win again.

Col. Tim Collins, British Army (ret): "Had the traditional European reserve been in play it is likely that there would have been wholesale murder. As it was the strong tradition of US servicemen to be “always on duty”, they no doubt saved lives.
In my experience, the US serviceman does not experience the excruciating levels of self-consciousness that dogs the European armies. Despite a low during the Vietnam era, US service personnel are proud of their country?s uniform and service and the nation is proud right back."
