In many international conferences, English is often the spoken language. At one event, a Frenchman complained about it — and a U.S. Navy Admiral had one of the best comebacks possible.
Read and enjoy.
A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that included Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French Navies. At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries.
Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks but a French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, “Why is it that we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than speaking French?”
Without hesitating,
the American Admiral replied, “Maybe it’s because the Brit’s, Canadians, Aussie’s and Americans arranged it so you wouldn’t have to speak German.”

That is a great reply which is also super true and super funny…
OH MY GOODNESS–I LOVE IT!! THAT WAS THE PERFECT RESPONSE TO THAT MORON!!
There’s another version to this.. Several years ago at one of the events when Degaul was still kicking,, He made a statement about getting American’s out of France… Forrestal turned to Degaul and said ,,,,,,,, “Does that mean the ones that are buried here also”.. You could’ve heard a pin drop in the carpeting……
Admire the ADMIRAL, for his response to this IDIOT> And to the others for their comments. GREAT.
That was a great statement for that Frenchman…
I got a great deal on a case of French rifles. Never been fired and only dropped once!
