Cannot search for text "WAS"?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

I'm running into a strange issue where I don't get results when I do a query string search for "WAS". Any other string I search for works fine, as far as I'm aware.

I've created a gist to walk anyone through what I'm doing:

Is "WAS" some kind of keyword in ElasticSearch?

It's an english common word. So, if you use default mapping for strings, words
like the, are, was, ... are not indexed.
See here :

http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/index-modules/analysis/standard-analyzer.html
It uses the default token filter
