to tell Adolf.
Thanks for the umbrella.
Glad we could
return the favor.
You guys have
helped us plenty.
Haystack calling Hardin.
Haystack calling Hardin.
Who's that... Stu?
You character! Come on home.
I'm in no condition
to go to London.
Here he comes.
Crash truck, fire
truck standing by.
Anything else you need? Over.
Landing gear jammed.
Bring me a wheelbarrow.
Let's get out there.
Let me talk to him.
Easy, Ed. Easy.
Go ahead!
Boy, did we sweat you out!
You're lucky.
You're telling me!
Let's see you fly it out.
Get in. We'll go.
Not me.
That ship's a wreck.
Have the taxpayers
get me another.
Sure, sure, I understand.
Get these directives
off my desk.
Four days to install
radio equipment?
Take a memo.
What will I say?
Tell them to do it faster.
Here's another...
Cutting our requisition
on gun cameras in half.
From now on,
order twice as
many as we need.
I won't have the Air Depot
tell me how to run things.
Who the blazes is
Sergeant Kinsey?
I don't know, sir,
but there's been a stream
from Randall, Kentborough,
Stratford, and Dorset,
all complaining about
a Sergeant Kinsey.
He must be quite a Don Juan.
It can't be any of our men.
They don't get passes to
get around that much.
See that I'm not bothered
with this Kinsey again.
Yes, sir.
General Gilbert's here, sir.
Send him in.
Ah, hello, Mel.
Sit down. Have a cigar.
No, thank you, sir.
Your wing had it hot today.
14 lost, 9 washouts,
20 major repairs.
When fatso Goering puts up three
groups to protect the target,
that means our bombers
are hitting them where
they're tender.
What's the trouble?
How did you know?
When there isn't any,
you take a cigar.
It's a thing I
hate to request...
The court-martial of a
fighter pilot, Major Hardin.
On what charge?
Repeated violation
of combat orders
in the face of the enemy.
This is difficult.
Next to Brickley,
he has the highest score
of planes in the command,
and he's one of your boys...
That's got nothing
to do with it.
I didn't mean to
imply favoritism.
What's he done this time?
The same as before...
Refuse to stay
with the bombers.
In fairness, he went
down to the deck
trying to save one of his men,
but afterwards, he didn't
rejoin his squadron.
He kept on after
the enemy plane.
Did he get him?
He got three...
Two in the air, one
on the ground.
By strafing the field, he
subjected his plane to flak...
A cylinder shot off.
He had to wash out his plane.
It's lucky he wasn't lost.
That gives him, let me see...
16 victories.
Makes a court-martial
kind of tough.
It's because of that, sir.
He's a top ace.
The replacements
see him as an idol
