Text Box: Why Admirals Speak English
 
An officer in the U.S. Naval reserve was attending a conference that included admirals from both the U.S. Navy and the French Navy.
 
At a cocktail reception, he found himself in a small group that included personnel from both navies. The French admiral started complaining that whereas Europeans learned many languages, Americans learned only English. He then asked:
 
"Why is it that we have to speak English in these conferences rather than you speak French?"
 
Without hesitating, the American admiral replied: "Maybe it's because the Brits, Canadians, Aussies and Americans arranged it so you would not have to speak in German."
 
The group became silent.
