C19fan: "Interesting article about Yanks descending on London. There is the infamous quote about Yanks being, “Oversexed, overpaid and over here”.

From the article:

“They don’t get our wisecracks,” Private Jackson explained. “You get one of them out and you say, ‘Like to pitch a little woo, baby?’ or ‘How’s for a little batting practice, Toots?’ and they look at you like you was screwy.”

Combined operations are not getting off to a smooth start.
