Yes I know they had, but not all of them seemed to have been
compliant with those rules.
I followed for some minutes S5... on 80m SSB
(I can tell you the call whenever you want) 
calling CQ with their callsign spelled in German and 
answering and giving reports in German and even say hello 
(Dankeshoen and Alles-gut of course).
I cannot say who they were, (since I still do not know
the callsign-team relationship) and really I do not mind anyway
since I think that it is quite easy to guess a Japanese man
even if he is speaking english,
but I can guess they were a DL team or an OE/DL team, 
(and the last shouldn't be, since you were their referee, weren't you?)

They had strict instructions not to identify themselves and to respond
with "I cannot say" if asked, "Are you..."

Plus, a referee hanging over their shoulder the entire time :-)
