It was America which stood by us
11:21am Monday 28th April 2008
I WAS amazed at Councillor Salim Mulla (LT, April 9). He said forget America and back France.
When we had our backs to the wall after Dunkirk, who stood by us - America.
Europe was burning and supplies of food, oil and raw materials came on convoys from the States. Their bravery literally saved our bacon.
World War II may be over, but don't forget that the collaboration between France and Germany certainly is not.
