Did Great Britain and France want the Germans to be punished for the destruction caused by World War 1?

France thought that they should bomb Germany back to the stone age after all of the damage and deaths they had made. Georges Clemenceau, France, was horrified after what Germany had done and thought they should suffer as much as France did in the war.
America agreed that Germany should be punished, but not too harshly as they would seek revenge when they 'grow up' and rebuild.
Britain agreed with both France and Germany but thought that they should squeeze the pips out of Germany. Lloyd-George realized that Germany would seek revenge if they were punished too hard but they shouldn't be punished too lightly in case they don't learn their lesson.
So yes Britain and France did think that Germany should be punished.
I hope this helped as it certainly helped me do my history homework.

The US armed forces assign letters to certain plans, so that they can be discussed without interceptors knowing what it is. D day was the day when Britain and the US invaded France and took it back from the Germans. Some of the French fought for the Germans (and were punished by the free French later, depending on how they helped the Germans.).

Why didn't Germany occupy all of France?
France has a border which is very close to Britain. Only separated by 32 miles of water. The Germans also feared Britain because by the time Germany did invade France, Britain was the only country still fighting and Britain's spitfire was a breakthrough in RAF technology. America was also in trade with Britain and France was surrounded by the allies of Britain. Britain could've attacked head on while America came from the North. Eastern allies stormed from the south and east. This is what happened and how Hitler lost the war.
