[BGB] Ol' Blood and Guts

[Jim Barbaro]

 From Wikipedia article on 761st Tank Battalion, the "Black Panthers" 
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/761st_Tank_Battalion>:

During the Battle of the Bulge, German soldiers who had raided 
American warehouses were reported to have disguised themselves as 
Americans guarding the checkpoints in order to ambush American 
soldiers. Patton solved this problem by ordering black soldiers to 
guard the checkpoints, and gave the order to shoot any white soldiers 
at the checkpoints
-------

That solution has the advantage of not having to quiz potential 
Germans in American drag about baseball players.

Babe Ruth was the fat guy who played for the "Cleveland Native 
Amerikaners," right?
