...chestful of medals (including the U.S. Distinguished Service Cross), a bust in his native Novosibirsk. But the highest prize comes through his earphones when he slashes into enemy formations. Then the German flight leaders identify his plane with its cluster of red stars-one for each aircraft downed -and shout "Achtung, Achtung-Pokryshkin...
Homing Angel. "Here comes the Angel!" the Marauder pilots used to shout when Wing Commander Lloyd Vernon Chadburn brought his R.C.A.F. Spitfires into action. In escorting U.S. bombers on 60 sorties over enemy territory, Chadburn's wing lost only one bomber, accounted for 44 of the enemy (twelve by the Wing Commander himself). For this work, Chadburn became the first R.C.A.F. member to win a bar to his D.S.O. At Dieppe he had previously won the D.F.C.

She dreams (in candy colors) of a circus which turns into a trial, with a gibbering jury of freaks and clowns. In spite of some Freudian symbols which may make a few cinemaddicts jump, these dream sequences are not very dreamlike. But as production numbers they will make...
...Soon they saw airships flying "with the velocity of an eagle." One airship was 2,000 feet long, carried tons of dynamite to drop on the Spaniards in Cuba. Another (according to the Wilsonville Review), powered by a windmill, swept low enough for one of its crew to shout to fascinated Nebraskans a tantalizing summons: "Weiver eht rof ebircsbus!" A third contained "a beautiful lady whose hands were bound to the seat, while, seated opposite her, was a man holding a revolver."
