Incidentally: For those who think the French rolled over:
WW2 Stats:
German dead: 27,074
French dead: 90,000
German wounded: 111, 034
French wounded: 200, 000
BEF (approx. 40 days fighting): 68,111; Belgian (17 days fighting) 23, 350; Dutch (5 days fighting) 9, 779.
Ok, so they mightn't have fought well, but they were in there.
Uncontested? haha, sure.
