Erics

Hi Henschel workers.

Did you guy’s know that in England some times people refer to the Germans as (Erics).? Looks like we’ve got Eric’s building Tiger tanks again. HA! HA! Keep up the good work schnellas . Sorry ! I mean fellas.

See Ya! Keith [:p]

Really? I didn’t know that. You learn something new everyday!

Now, back to the factory [:-,]

I did not know that either (but then I’m only living in the UK…)

DOH!! [:0] How 'bout that! I’d never heard that either. I learn something new everyday, but that means I just forgot something too because I’m out of storage space!! [:p] [:D]

Cool bit of trivia Keith. [8D]

(What is your name ? My name is Eric )

Can’t tell you how I know that

Dann bin ich ein stolzer Eric
(Then I am a proud Eric. thank you high school german)

Hmmm…My cousin is half German, and his name is Erich…

This Erik is working on a Tamiya panzer IV J and will soon be starting on the Skif SA-13. [:D]

ive asked loads of peaple here in England and no ones heard of it???
they have all said Gerry is the nickname for a German

I have to agree!!! no one i’ve asked has heard of it!!

I’ve even asked old people[:D] from the war!! they all say Gerry of the other one we shouldnt use nower days [:D] ( I think you know the one i mean)

Maybe its a mix up i mean Erick and Gerry are both mens names![:I]

Kaleu, I didn’t know you were an Eric too. [:D] Man there are alot of us Eric’s here. [8D] We’re taking over the forum. Moooaaaahaaahaaa. [}:)]

I’m sure everyone in the forum has heard of the British nicknaming the Germans as Jerrys, but not Erics, during the war.
