This is untrue.
French fought and where crushed in june 1940 because of their general staff management. I f you think that almost 90000 soldiers killed fighting in only 3 weeks is nothing, you should review your definition of "nothing".
And even about the shamly capitulation act and the collaborating state following the defeat, the free french army participation was decisive helping the allied in Africa (El Alamein and Bir Hakeim) as in Europe (Monte Cassino, batlles along the Rhein, Danube and Berschtesgaden as exemples).
