Here are a few surprises for you
Some of the pilots and support people flying off the sole French Aircraft carrier are Americans on loan. Training France’s own pilots on their own carrier was deemed too expensive for France. The story includes a cute anecdote about an American pilot being admonished by a French support person for working too hard. The French carrier only launches about 1/4 as many planes a day as an American carrier.
Oh, and NATO is running out of bombs…
