...yourselves who'll be pilot and navigator and all that sort of thing. You'll be flying our new steam-powered jobs. Your maps, I'm afraid, are a little out-of-date, but you'll have no trouble. You'll fly out over Gaul and drop your bombs just north of the Holy Roman Empire -but don't fly too far or you'll fall off. When you're shot down, pretend to be a tourist. We have provided you with a manual containing such typical German phrases...
