no it is not, like said it's German in game, i could have guessed it was military lingo, but i didn't knew it would mean US marines. That said i am not from the US, i am from Europe. You might want to correct it then it's said for those from the US that wouldn't know it, but do not expect the rest of the world to know certain nicknames.so sad when someone has to resort to a wiki article for that......
interesting the Devil dog term is what the Nazis called US Marines because everytime they shot one he got back up and kept fighting.Teufelhunden? That's German and means "Devil-dogs". What's that supposed to be?:coldsweat:x'Dx'D

Yeah more of an urban legend that one. Officially the term is from WW1 though, but unlikely Germans would have called them Teufelhunden, since that's not a term a German speaker would ever use. Most likely they simply called themselves devil dogs, because it sounded cool to them.Can only tell you what I was told while in service. My bad for believing the Marines.
Soldiers have a habit of taking insults as compliments.

While you are correct about WW1 rather than WW2, your history is a bit off: " The "Devil Dogs" nickname for Marines first appeared inDevil Dog originated in the First World War, not the Second, and because the Marines in Belleau Wood fought like "Dogs from Hell."
