during the second world war there was a battle between a german regiment and the maori battallion. they stale mated in the trenches and for weeks neither side could progress or retreat from their trench.
back home the maori intelligence formulated a plan and relayed it to the front line. the intel that they had received was that one in five germans answered to the name ralph.
with this information the maori battallion set up a sharp shooter down the trench and the called out 'HEY RALPH", 'YA" came the reply as a german poked up his head to see what we wanted. "BOOM" went the gun and the maoris were on a roll moving down the trench and back up again.
after a week of this the german forces were dwindling and the german intelligence was getting worried. they then formulated a plan of their own and decided to beat the maoris at their own game. see they figured out that one in five maoris answered to the name hemi.
the intel was relayed to the frontline and the germans set up a sharp shooter and called out 'HEY HEMI' when no reply came, the german poked his head up ever so slighty and called out again 'HEY HEMI' he was about to give up when someone replied 'HEMI'S ON THE TOILET, IS THAT YOU RALPH?' 'YA' "BOOM".
and thats how the war was really won.
