The first and last lines portray the inexperience of the French defense forces.

These lines show us that the French defense forces were not used to battle and to the battle gear, so they had trouble keeping up with the pace. On the other hand, they were not "proffesional" soldiers: the last line tells us that they had different jobs before the war and that they had become soldiers per chance. Also, those who had become officers do not have the experience or the rank and they were appointed because of their wealth.
