@BritishHistoryWWII Judging by your moniker you might be the guy to ask questions about the Brits in WWll. Here is a question I have never gotten a satisfactory answer on;. .. When the Germans invaded Poland on Sept 1st, 1939, the Briitish and French declared war on Germany. When the USSR invaded on Sept 17th, they did NOT declare war on the Ruskys. I asked a curator in the Imperial War Museum in London, and he just said, it may be they were biting off more than enough.

The British called the Germans "Jerry". Did they have a name like that for the Japanese? How bout "Jappy"?
