[> [> Hey, Laurence- I've watched this about 6 times now, and I tear up each time- especially when the young pilot is shaking the hand of the older veteran in the wheelchair who lost both his left arm & leg. I saw that "Toujours Au Danger" too- I guess it was part of the motto for that group of pilots. Maybe some of them were Canadians. My mom's first language was french, but she spoke a french-canadian dialect. That's where I got "Matou" from- I heard her call our male cat that one day, and it stuck. Since it basically means "TomCat", I chose it as my HarmyBoard moniker. -- Matou/Carol, 21:47:59 01/16/13 Wed [1]

[> [> [> Thank you for the vid. Yes, here in France the male cat is called " Matou ". It's affection. -- Laurence, 12:32:42 01/17/13 Thu [1]

[> [> [> [> Yes- that's what my Mom had said, a term of "endearment" for a male cat, and "minou" for a kitten. -- Carol/Matou, 22:39:28 01/18/13 Fri [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> You're welcome, but what you said is absolutely right, too- "affection"- and I did so love "Mon Matou"! -- Matou/Carol, 12:14:42 01/19/13 Sat [1]
