As far as Arrogance, I suppose Brits are a little intitled to it, Theyre only a thousand or so years older as far as societies go. Soooo I can see them looking at us as loud obnoxious ill mannered children.
remember:
1. Be polite
2. be professional
3. don't take it personally
4. Go back to doing what you were doing in the first place...,

The British are a proud people and rightfully so. I believe the word "Hubris" is defined as "The arrogance of pride". I have used the term to describe British officers at times (and others).
