At the French customs desk, an old man took a few minutes to locate his passport in his bag.
'You have been to France before, monsieur?' the customs officer asked, sarcastically.
The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.
'Then you should know enough to 'ave your passport ready.'
The elderly gentleman said, 'The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it.'

'Impossible! The British always have always had to show their passports on arrival in France !!!'
The Man gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly said:
"Well, when I came ashore on the Beach on D-Day in 1944, I couldn't find one single Frenchmen to show it to!!"
