"so why is it we all have to speak English at these meetings?,   Cause if it was not for the Americans, you would be speaking German"
Care to elaborate?  I didn`t get it.
It came from this....

A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that

included Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian

and French Navies. At a cocktail reception, he found himself

standing with a large group of Officers that included personnel

from most of those countries. Everyone was chatting away in

English as they sipped their drinks but a French admiral

suddenly complained that, 'wherea s Europeans learn many

languages, Americans learn only English.' He then asked, 'Why

is it that we always have to speak English in these conferences

rather than speaking French?'





Without hesitating, the American Admiral replied 'Maybe its

because the Brits, Canadians, Aussies and Americans arranged it

so you wouldn't have to speak German.'

You could hav e heard a pin drop!
