as you get it.
Well, what headaches
have you got, Earnie?
Have you been getting any sleep, Casey?
You're not pretty enough for a nurse.
What have you got?
Well, there's a rather stiff protest here, sir,
from a Robert Hintonbottom.
President of the Middle Counties Association
of Farmers, Dairymen and Poulters.
It seems these early take-offs
have been frightening the cows...
...around Colonel Foster's base
and drying up the milk.
He also says it's been disturbing
the chickens.
They're not laying like they used to.
Write him a polite letter, tell him
we're trying to lay a few eggs of our own.
Yes, sir.
- What is it, Evans?
- Message from General Kane, sir. Secret.
Read it.
"Members Military Affairs Committee
arrived in England.
Your command will be visited.
Imperative their impressions favorable.
Request your special efforts
to maintain low loss average...
...during critical three days next.
Signed, Malloway for Kane."
All right. Wait a minute.
What else, Earnie?
There's this matter of Captain Donford
and Miss Blundy in the village, sir.
- What about it?
- She and her mother are pretty keen...
What about the boy?
I don't know, sir, but he's got
one wife already in the States.
Is he combat crew or base personnel?
Navigator. Got 10 missions left to go.
Thanks. Do we know the woman?
Oh, I know her, sir.
I beg your pardon, sir.
I'm not surprised. Any suggestion?
Excuse me, sir.
Would the general like to square...
...that is, have this matter attended to
by negotiations, sir?
If it can be done.
I'd have to have an order
for a couple of gallons of ice cream...
...and a few hours off, sir.
Get it and get going.
With the general's permission, sir.
These matters are better attended to
in the evening.
All right.
Anything else?
You and Cliff Garnet were classmates,
weren't you?
Yeah, why?
He's flying over here from Washington.
Due in at Prestwick this afternoon.
Did you know that?
Cliff Garnet.
I've known Cliff ever since we were racing
for a pair of corporal stripes at the Point.
sort of neck and neck.
What's he doing over here?
They haven't announced
an assignment for him.
Maybe you're gonna have
a new boss, Earnie.
- A relay from Colonel Martin, sir.
- What's it say?
"Target plastered. Warm up here.
Signed, Ted."
I'll bet it's pretty warm
in Schweinhafen too.
Get me London, Central 10,000.
Elmer Brockhurst, United News.
Yes, sir.
Everything's under control, sir.
- What are you doing here, Mr. Brockhurst?
- Hello?
Your connections are terrible.
Hello, Maggie. Give me Bigelow.
