Nice panties for the gentleman
In 1953 I was posted to BMH Hannover. My girlfriend (now my wife) asked me to get her a pair of nylon stockings. I had not been in the country for very long, but I decided to experiment with what little I knew of the German language. So I went into Hannover and found a shop which had ladies underwear on display. I rehearsed my little speech, entered the shop and approached the counter. The sales assistant was a very pretty young girl, who was very attentive to my requirements. So I started: Ich möchte ein paar schöne Damenunterhosen kaufen. Or words to that effect. The young lady blushed a deep shade of red and then produced the briefest pair of panties that I had ever seen. The embarrassment was written on her face as she held them up for my perusual. My thoughts and dreams of speaking German deserted me. "Oh no", said I. It was now my turn to be embarrassed, I hurriedly showed my army stocking as a visual aid to what I was trying to purchase. The Pfennig dropped. Ah, Strumpf! said the much relieved young lady. Who then proceeded to assist me by selling me the pair of nylons that she would have liked to have bought. I believe the price of the stockings was six D-Marks.
