A U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a Naval Conference that included 20 Admirals from U.S. Britain, Canada, Australia and French Navies. At the conference he found himself standing with a group of Officers that included personnel from most of the countries. Everyone was chatting away in English as they were sipping their drinks, when a French Admiral complained, that whereas Europeans learn many languages the Americans only learn English. He then added why is it in these meetings we have to speak in English, rather than speaking in French. Without a moment's hesitation the American Admiral replied, "Maybe its because the British, Canadian, Australian and Americans arranged it so you would not be speaking German." You could hear a pin drop after that.
