OK, I hadn't seen any of those - can only go by what I've seen/heard in =
the last 3 years while here in Ohio : )=20

The group here is probably better educated than the people I have worked =
with on the factory floor too.

Might have caught me on a bad day too - caught someone muttering "Damn =
foreigner" after I ordered food from them - and I wasn't rude etc - just =
had to ask what options there were for some items they had.

(I do expect to have the odd problem being understood - but not that much =
being from NZ , I only speak english - never did take that german course)

Simply not true.
I've seen all these on the History Channel (The Ghurkas come to mind) and
additionally, the red-tail squadron, and the Nesei.

Does anyone seriously propose that we are unaware that the Russians were
our allies in WWII??
