1:07:01
I would just
like to remind the men...
1:07:03
we will drop the bombs
within 50 yards of each other...
1:07:06
at ten-second intervals.
1:07:08
The geologists calculate
that 12 bombs of this size...
1:07:12
exploding in this pattern,
will break loose the overhang.
1:07:16
Skipper, excuse me,
I'd like to ask a question.
1:07:19
Go ahead.
1:07:20
Isn't it likely that each plane
could be blown apart...
1:07:23
by the explosion of the bomb
in front of it?
1:07:25
Not if our calculations
are correct.
1:07:27
I hope
you've got a good calculator.
1:07:32
With all
those gun emplacements...
1:07:34
the flak's going
to be murderous, isn't it?
1:07:36
The Norwegian underground
will attack at exactly 0630.
1:07:40
Which means you should be
entering the fjord...
1:07:43
not earlier than 0655
and not later than 0705.
1:07:48
Squadron Leader Adams.
1:07:49
Time check your watches.
1:07:50
It's coming up 2:47 in...
1:07:53
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, check.
1:08:00
Your call sign is Everest.
1:08:03
The code for
the successful completion...
1:08:06
of the operation is Vesuvius.
1:08:08
Sounds like that mountain...
1:08:09
could turn into
a bloody big volcano.
1:08:12
Yes, and we hope
the Germans will be under it.
1:08:15
Any further questions?
1:08:17
Yes, sir,
I've got a question.
1:08:19
Just a bit of curiosity,
really...
1:08:22
but what does that factory make?
1:08:25
You'll be told
when you get back.
1:08:28
This much
I can tell you, though.
1:08:30
No squadron
has ever been sent out...
1:08:32
on a more critically
important operation.
1:08:40
That's all, gentleman.
1:08:44
Except... good luck.
1:08:48
Thank you, sir.
