What Not To Do and How To Do It 
      You know what you have to do. You know where you’re going to do it. You make your plans. Then comes the day when you and your partner make your move to carry out the plan. 
     It’s a simple plan. Just walk into that McDonald’s and demand the money in the cash registers. I mean, people who work in a McDonald’s can’t be much of a threat to people waving guns around, can they? 
     Well, funny you should ask. 
     The two robbers who walked into the McDonald’s in Ecole-Valentin, near Besancon, were probably thinking: Yep, easy pickings.        What they failed to notice were eleven Special Forces soldiers sitting at tables eating their lunch. 
     But the Special Forces men noticed them. They waited until the robbers exited the establishment. The eleven soldiers followed and confronted the robbers, who took the advice to surrender with less than the serious manner the soldiers thought appropriate, so they shot one robber in the stomach, and believe it or not, the second robber fell down a flight of stairs and sustained serious injuries. Funny how that could happen. 
     The moral of this story: If there is any, it is: one – don’t rob a McDonald’s; two – if you absolutely must rob a McDonald’s, make sure there are no Special Forces people sitting around having Big Macs.
