Sorry again. The Germans had the first storm troopers in WW1.
The French did as well even before Canada got there.
On a side note the French did not surrender in WW1 and fought harder than anybody since it was their home they were fighting for. They had some of the best aircraft and tanks of the war. The very first US combat aircraft and tanks were all built in and bought from, France.
