SS&SP Characters: Major General Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette

“They said General Lafayette was here for glory, and maybe that was slightly true. She didn’t know him long enough to tell what was rumor and what was fact. But instead of zeal and ambition in his eyes, she only saw kindness, an eagerness to help. He cared about the cause and the army as much as anyone here. As much as General Washington himself. If he couldn’t help them, then they needed to quit while they were ahead.”

The worst singer up in the Bulge was Ralph Spina. He couldn’t sing a note. He sang like South Philly Willy. He thought he was Mario Lanza. He said, “Well, I come from his neighborhood.” I said, “Well, you ain’t got his voice!” When he started to sing we all yelled, “Will you shut the hell up!”

In honour of recieving the M de Lafayette comparison, I'm dropping the mini amrev-related content from my Paris photo backlog!

the man himself aka Marquis de Lafayette (tell me he doesn't look like he's judging you); Versailles

The Siege of Yorktown painting; from the hall in Versailles where they had paintings of all the French and French-adjacent victories because of course that's a thing

Benny boy aka Benjamin Franklin; Musée Carnavalet

Benny and Louis XVI signing a treatise (sorry for the glare it was behind a glass panel); Musée Carnavalet
