The Germans claim that they only lost 60,000 men while taking France,
and the French claim that they lost 300,000 men to the Germans.
Something about those numbers seems suspicious. If that many Frenchman
really died it must have been from incompetance.


They had incompetent senior staff. The fighting men were able and felt betrayed
by their own officers.
