A Newfie in Paris

An 83 year old Newfie arrived in Paris by plane. At the French customs
desk, the man took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on 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 have your passport ready,' the officer exclaimed!

The Newfie said, 'The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it.'
'Impossible, the officer said, Canadians always have to show their passports on arrival in France!'

The Newfie gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he quietly explained.
'Well, when I came ashore on the Beach on D-Day in 1944 to save your sorry asses,
I couldn't find any fucking Frenchmen to show it to!
