..the great thing about most French tank museums is the exhibits are practically unused…

Chokidar, be fair. There are Char B's used by the French Army in early war, the Wehrmacht mid war, and the French Army again for late war, and FT-17's that not only fought Germans in two wars, but also the Italians and the Americans.

Seriously, I enjoy mocking the French too, but it's not as though we never had a bad day--or even a war that didn't go as planned.
