HO=Head On.

Regardless of how you got there, you are now going head to head with another aircraft.
Either get the hell out of the way, or start firing. 
Don't come in here and cry about 'that was a ho'.

I have a picture my Grandfather took in the far East in 1944 of a used an abused Japanese 109E.
I think they were very rare when they were used.

The Japanese had a flying B-17 with Imperial markings.

Close.  There were two Koreans conscripted into the Wehrmacht.  They had been captured after being conscripted into the Soviet Red Army.  In turn, they had been captured after being conscripted into the Japanese Imperial Army.
