:04:00
Well, don't bother.
:04:01
Remember, you're not in a
monastery. You're in the Air Force.

:04:06
Thanks for reminding me.
:04:09
Hey, come on, Buzz.
Will you hurry up?

:04:12
Know what else you're gonna have
to learn before you're a good pilot?

:04:17
How to relax.
:04:32
- Hi, Marty.
- Greetings.

:04:37
Morning, Lynch.
How's your dog?

:04:39
How's Superman this morning?
:04:41
Try and keep us on course
for a change, huh?

:04:52
- There's a dance tonight.
- I'll have to call my girl.

:04:55
- Where is she?
- Boston. Getting home from a dance.

:04:58
- Where do you bet they send us today?
- Riviera for water sports.

:05:01
Or Palm Springs to get a suntan.
:05:03
Today's target, gentlemen, Kiel.
:05:06
As you can see,
a short run across the North Sea.

:05:10
Kiel is important because
of enemy submarine pens.

:05:13
Here they are, in this inlet
just south of the harbour.

:05:16
Hitting these pens will protect our supply
lines for Operation Torch in North Africa.

:05:20
As group commander, Col. Emmet will
be in the lead ship of the lead squadron.

:05:25
You will take your instructions
from him. Colonel.

:05:30
Capt. Rickson will lead
the low squadron.

:05:33
Capt. Woodman, the high.
:05:35
Most of the flying will be
over water.

:05:38
Don't get your hopes up
that this will be a nice milk run.

:05:41
Reconnaissance reports a flak corridor
running through the target area.

:05:44
And fighter attacks can be expected.
Stay together.

:05:48
Keep your formations tight
and drop your bombs when I do.

:05:52
And remember,
no broken field running.

:05:56
This is a team effort.
:05:58
Navigators and bombardiers
will remain for navigation briefing.
