How to Spot a Jap

We here at myninjaplease find this to be personally offensive, if not just an interesting link for you history buffs out there.

"In 1942 the US War Department produced a Pocket Guide to China, which includes a comic book-like section titled How to Spot a Jap. The goal of the section is to teach American soldiers how to differentiate the Chinese from the Japanese. It covers differences in the face, feet, stride, and pronunciation of English. (Do any veterans out there remember this thing?)"
