British cockney rhyming slang for a Yank (a Yankee, an American). As in 'Septic Tank Yank'. I'm told by my British friends the origin of this was the British military, where in WWI American infantrymen exhibited the worst of the worst language, and talked a lot of crap. But being from [California], I remind them that I'm about as Yankee as an [Australian] is a Brit. Calling everyone in America a Yank is really ignorant. The British say Septic, while [Australians] generally say Seppo (compounded ignorance).
