The next day, an American soldier called out, ‘Hans!?’ A German popped up and shouted back, ‘Ja?!’ Boom, the German was shot dead.The next day the Americans shouted again, ‘Hans?!’ ‘Ja?!’ Shot dead. This process continued over the next few days, until the Germans started catching on. In an emergency meeting, they thought of using the same tactics as the Americans. So, a German asked, ‘What is a popular American name?’ ‘John!’ replied another.
The next day, a German shouted, ‘John!?’ An American called back, ‘Is that you, Hans?!’ ‘Ja!’ And that’s how the Americans won WW1.
