You just don’t screw a Brazilian and turn your back on him thinking he won’t reciprocate a thousand times worse. The Yankees in WW2 learned this in the best way possible.

Context: During World War II, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force were stationed alongside American troops in Italy. The U.S. soldiers, being well-fed and powered by their infinite canned rations, started “liberating” food from their Brazilian allies’ supplies.
Brazilian officers then went to their American counterparts to complain. The Americans simply shrugged: “It’s war, buddy. Guard your food better.”
So the Brazilians thought:
“Fine. If food is fair game… *so is your Shermans*.”
And that’s how a group of annoyed Brazilians pulled the ultimate uno reverse card – stealing an entire American tank as petty revenge.
🇺🇸: “Bro chill we’ll give the food back – just give us our tank!”
🇧🇷: “HUEHUEHUEHUE VOU TE ROUBEI”

Decades later Ukrainians learned from Brazil how to steal a tank, and this time it wasn’t from their fellow allies.
