Not a joke precisely, but I've heard that when the officers of the 51st Highland Division captured at St. Valery wrote a dance whilst in prison, the German guards refused to send a copy of it to their families in Scotland -- they took one look at the arcane symbols and language used to mark dance steps and thought it was a secret code -- until the Scots danced it for them to prove the innocence of what they had written. |
