When I was a kid, I remember Browns being called "German
Browns". If I remember correctly, it had something to
do with the kind of beer and sausage they ate and the
language they taunted us with when they played with their
food. But, I was little and probably have much of the
details wrong. :-)

I wonder why we stopped calling them "German Browns"?

Spent three years in Germany with the Air Force ('77-'79).
Rented a place from a family in a small farming town
called Queidersbach. Loved every minute of it. Never
found a place to fish though.
