For a full account of this exchange, see chapter 6. 2 See Janice Holt Giles, The G.I. Journal of Sergeant Giles (Boston: Houghton-Miffl in Company, 1965), 27. 3 AMH, FC H4 15-5, Joe Weston, “The GIs in Le Havre,” manuscript. The article was printed in Life magazine, 31 December 1945. In fact, such stereotypes of the French predated 1917. See Jean Yves Le Naour, Misères et tourments de la chair du- rant la Grande Guerre: les moeurs sexuelles des Français, 1914–1918 (Paris: Aubier, 2002), 205. 4 Charles Maier, Among Empires: American Ascendancy and Its Predecessors (Cam- bridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2007), 154–55. 5 See Irwin Wall, The United States and the Making of Postwar France, 1945–1954 (Cam- bridge: Cambridge University Press, 1991), 34, 195, 198. 6 AMGOT stood for Allied Military Government for Occupied Territories. On AMGOT, see Régine Torrent, La France américaine: controverses de la Libération (Brussels: Éditions Racine, 2004), chap. 2. 7 Most recently, Jean Edward Smith has argued that Eisenhower favored plans to include General de Gaulle and his CFLN organization in the reconstruction of liberated France. In response to Eisenhower’s support of de Gaulle, the War De- partment sent a representative, John J. McCloy, to the White House in order to convince FDR to soften his stance against the French general. See Eisenhower in War and Peace (New York: Random House, 2012), 338. 8 On the French challenge to the Anglo-American bid for military government, see Julian G. Hurstfi eld, America and the French Nation, 1939–1945 (Chapel Hill: Univer- sity of North Carolina Press, 1986), 194–224; Wall, The United States, chap. 1. 9 For the confl ict between FDR and Charles de Gaulle, see Charles Cogan and An- drew Knapp, “Washington at the Liberation, 1944–1947,” in The Uncertain Founda- tion: France at the Liberation, 1944–1947, ed. Andrew Knapp (New York: Palgrave McMillan, 2007), 183–206. 263 264 notes to pages 5–11 10 Andrew A. Thomson, “‘Over There’ 1944/45, Americans in the Liberation of France: Their Perceptions of, and Relations with France and the French” (PhD thesis, University of Kent at Canterbury, 1996), 8. Thomson argues that AMGOT did not die out completely in 1944. 11 Coulet was the fi rst commissaire whom Charles de Gaulle appointed in Bayeux. There he dealt mostly with British troops. However, Coulet soon assumed the role of regional commissaire for all of Normandy. In this position he dealt frequently with the Americans. 12 Archives Nationales (hereafter AN), Séries AN F1a 4005, Mission militaire de lia- sion adminstrative, 1944–46 (hereafter 4005), report of 27 June 1944.

(Princeton, NJ: Prince- ton University Press, 1949), 1:433, Samuel A. Stouff er argues that servicemen of the Second World War made very little eff ort “to give the war meaning in terms of the principles and causes involved.” 18 André Siegfried, Les États-Unis d’aujourd’hui (Paris: Armand Colin, 1927); translated as America Comes of Age (New York: Harcourt Brace and Company, 1928). Siegfried is widely considered to be the founder of French political science. 19 André Siegfried, “Les États-Unis à la croisée des chemins,” Le fi garo, 26 March 1945.
