I heard from public radio that the U.S. Marine is using a custom map based on the Unreal engine to train marines to speak Arabic and learn about their culture. I'll look into it to see whether I can find more about the project and possibly get some screenshots...

Here is a link to the article: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4503426

Sneak Preview:
"To talk to the Iraqi, point the gun to his head and left-click."
"If an Iraqi is lying lifelessly on the ground, press [V], hover Taunt, select Pelvic Thrust"
"To talk to a group of Iraqis select Shock Rifle, point towards them, right click, and left click when the blue blob is near them"
"To connect to an Iraqi select Link Gun, point to him, and keep the rightmouse button pressed".
