My grandmother’s father was in the US Navy during World War II. He said that his ship’s mascot was a monkey and one day a sailor was woken up by the monkey. Irritated, he threw it out at sea. As if being stranded at in the middle of the ocean wasn’t cruel enough, the fact that Monkeys can’t swim only confirms the poor thing drowned.

You should talk about "the dai hong dan incident". Where in 2007, a north Korean cargo ship got hijacked by Somalian pirates. And a US warship came to the rescue after hearing their distress call. Fortunately, the NK sailors took the ship back after killing 2 of the baddies, and capturing 5 more. 3 of the sailors needed medical treatment, where US Navy medical personnel helped them. When the news spread around NK, they made a VERY RARE statement, PRAISING the US navy for answering the distress call for the their sailors. Worth talking about it.

Indian soldiers and paramilitary troops deployed in Himalayan states have a similar nonsense superstition about a soldier named Harbhajan Singh who died fighting the Chinese. Indian soldiers have turned him into 'Pir Baba' (Saint-Father) and made a shrine for him after some Indian soldiers claimed to have seen dreams in which 'Singh came to them and told them about the enemy's plans and positions'. They believe that Pir Baba chooses that who dies and who lives during combat (he is considered as neutral and he 'chooses Indian troops and enemies alike to be killed') and that's why they worship him so that 'he doesn't chooses their death'.
