4. After the Germans were driven from Paris, French authorities detained 60 year old Coco Chanel because of her affair with a German officer, 12 years younger. Her defense, " Really, sir, a woman of my age cannot be expected to look at his passport if she has a chance of a lover." Charges were dropped.
