During the Second World War, the Nazis caught, as prisoner, one popular American writer.They wanted him to tell his country ,over the radio ,that there was every evidence that the German war machinery was invincible.He obeyed and added at the end:"Tell this to the army,tell this to the navy,tell this to the marines." Americans understood.The Nazis were happy. What he actually wanted to convey was in the last sentence :"Tell this to the marines".It is an English idiom meaning " Don't believe what I say."The original full idiom was"Tell it to the marines,because the navy won't believe it."(not that pleasing to the marines as they are treated as gullible.)"
