monter à l'attaque Explanation: Je poste une réponse différente même si inconsciemment la réponse de katsy m'a mis sur la voie. J'avais pensé à "faire le grand saut" mais dans d'autres contextes (c'est bien d'infanterie que l'on parle: pour l'aviation ça aurait pu marcher). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 heures (2007-10-22 21:03:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/album/showphoto.php?photo=1... |

franchir le parapet Explanation: To 'go over the top'... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 13 hrs (2007-10-23 08:09:30 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I've just noticed that you used this phrase in your question! So I should not get any points for it, but in my opinion it would be a good phrase for you to use. Reference: http://www.1914-1918.be/insolite_traitement_pour_un_froussar... |
