A very good friend of mine, sadly recently deceased tells the story of his vacation in Cuba.
He and his wife booked an all-inclusive vacation to a resort in Cuba but only found out when arriving there the resort was owned by a German company and as a result, the majority of guests were from that country.
One evening when entering the dining room for dinner an elderly gentleman confronted him. Englisher he said (he was speaking to a Scot) during the war I was on u-boats sinkling Englisher ships. Nonpulsed Jim responded. That is OK as during the time you were doing that I was dropping bombs on Berlin.Later on he was involved with the "Berlin air lift" and was a guest of the German govermant to celebrete the 50th anniversary.
