Attack, attack, attack,
attack, attack, attack...

:20:16
Hello, Rabbit Leader.
:20:18
I thought you might
come in from the sun.

:20:20
Don't think. Don't just glance.
:20:22
Look! Search for the bastards!
:20:24
And never fly in a straight
line, or you're a dead duck.

:20:28
- Sir.
- Now, let's try it again.

:20:38
Or, in other words,
beware of the Hun in the sun...

:20:41
who, for reasons best
known to himself...

:20:43
has confined his recent attacks
to our channel convoys.

:20:46
However,
this won't last forever.

:20:48
But it has given us a chance
to pull ourselves together...

:20:52
and to train people like you.
:20:53
As fighter controllers, you'll
be joining an organization...

:20:56
which, thank the good Lord...
:20:57
was not rushed up
hastily yesterday.

:20:59
It'll be a pain in the neck
to the enemy when he comes.

:21:02
It's the joker up our sleeves.
:21:04
Now, the R.A.F. Chain
shows us where they are.

:21:06
The information
is passed to group...

:21:08
group scrambles
the necessary squadrons...

:21:09
and you, at sector level...
:21:11
guide our chaps
to the interception.

:21:15
It's been tried and tested.
It works.

:21:19
So don't blame the system
if you're no good.

:21:23
Now, clearly, 11 Group here...
:21:25
will bear the brunt
of the battle...

:21:27
as those of you
who are posted there...

:21:29
will find out
to your discomfort.

:21:32
12 Group is our second line
of defense...

:21:33
and covers the industrial
midlands and the north.

:21:35
13 Group, Scotland
and the northeast...

:21:37
and 10 Group,
the west of England.

:21:40
More than half
the fighter-command squadrons...

:21:42
are stationed here
at 11 Group...

:21:44
near the coast where we
expect the invasion...

:21:47
and also able
to protect London...

:21:48
which is as far as the bombers
can get with fighter escort.

:21:52
But I think
we can leave strategy...

:21:54
to those with egg
on their hats.

:21:56
Attention!
