I was talking to my dad yesterday about my Grandad who fought with the Chindits in Burma and we got on to language because my Grandad knew bits and pieces from loads of lanuages, as it was the most multi-national force in British history. I asked my dad if he'd known Japanese and apparently my dad asked him that when he was younger and my grandad replied "Why would we need to know Japanese? We didn't tell them to get out of the hole or put their hands up, we just threw a grenade down the hole and shot the bastard"
