Q fr @GlennBurnsWSB: General Yeager USAF teach you any basic German or French to help in case of being shot down? A: No. One of Maquis told me to keep quiet as tho' I were a deaf mute. His attractive sister came in- making it very difficult :-) #WWII #Maquis @usairforce

I do have my uncle's Army-issue German phrase book from when he was in the European theater. Guess the Air Force didn't figure you guys should ever touch soil. :-)
