France’s Custom-ary Passport

The old Canadian gentleman arrived in Paris by plane, and fumbled for his passport at French customs.

"You have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked sarcastically.

The old gent admitted that he had been to France before.

"Then, you should know enough to have your passport ready for inspection," snapped the irate official.

The Canadian said, "The last time I came to France I did not have to show my passport."

"Impossible, old man. You Canadians always have to show your passports on arrival in France!"

The old Canadian gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then, with the feel of acid on his words, calmly stated, "I assure you, young man, that when I came ashore on Juno Beach in Normandy on D-Day in 1944, there were no friggin' Frenchmen anywhere on that beach."

Sounds a bit like the (real) story of the BOAC pilot who, when asked wether he had ever flown to Frankfurt before, answered something in the line of
"did once in 1944 but didn't stop"
