Red Tails
Germans.
Let's get them!
Where are
the damn fighters going?
They've gone chasing scalps,
leaving us unprotected again.
Damn those
glory-grabbing bastards!
Bandits! Hundreds of them!
Six o'clock!
Is there anything
left of our escort?
Negative, boss.
Damn it! Why don't
I can't believe this!
It never fails.
Oh, no.
Stay with me.
This is Bouncing Betty.
Engine three is out.
We're falling back. Two,
you take lead position.
Need the extinguisher.
Hank!
Mayday! Mayday!
Prepare to bail out.
I repeat, prepare to bail...
Red One to Red Two, come in.
Are you awake
over there, Lightning?
Yeah, yeah, sorry.
Boy, I need a nap!
Well, look alive. Wouldn't
want you to miss this war.
War is hell. What we're doing
is just boring as hell.
Whoever she was, I hope she
Oh, trust me, she was worth it!
Junior.
Junior, you okay?
Fine as wine, Red One. The sky
is blue and my guns are hot.
Joker, you all right?
Nope. I feel like I'm flying
my grandfather's Buick.
Coolant indicator's
all over the map.
And to think I was as happy as a
church lady when I got this plane.
All right, Red Four, you're done.
Take it on home.
Come on now, Captain, this gauge
over here is a piece of crap.
Captain, let me give it a looky
before you send him back.
He's not trailing
any oil or water.
Seems to me like he's
just got a bad indicator.
Come on, Easy. Let
me fly, sir, please?
You know it ain't gonna be
no fun without me.
All right. Okay.
You stay on, Red Four.
You stay on, but you keep
an eye on it, all right?
Thank you, sweetheart.
Just my luck I get stuck
with the flying wreck.
Another P-40 from
Uncle Sam's junkyard.
It looks like we
got a truck up there.
It's got German markings.
Junior, it's your turn.
Yes, sir!
Prepare to feel
the wrath of the Ray Gun.
I'm on your wing, Junior!
Come on.
You see that?
Congratulations, kid.
Whoo-hoo!
We can go back victorious.
Everybody, form up.
We're going home.
Uh...
Easy, I see something. It's a train!
Eleven o'clock.
I don't think it's German.
I don't see any guns.
Looks like they're
moving livestock to me.
No. It's military.
It's camouflaged.
It could just be cows.
You don't want to shoot up no
cows if you don't have to.
Unless y'all
planning on a barbecue.
Nobody sees any guns?
I'm telling you, Easy,
that's a munitions train.
And I bet it's
armed to the teeth.
You grown-ups better think fast.
It's headed for that tunnel.
All right. Only one way to find out.
Let's go get it.
Wait. Easy,
we got to take it head-on,
low, so their guns
can't hit us.
It's my decision, Lightning.
Stay in formation.
Looks like these
cows are armed.
Come on.
Stay in front of it!
Die, you Nazi dogs!
Dang! Those cows
just shot up my wing!
No sweat. No sweat.
If that train makes it into the
tunnel, they'll stop in there.
Where's Lightning?
Where the hell
are you, Lightning?
Taking the train from the front,
like you should have done.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
Gotcha!
Whoa! Shit!
Whoa!
Whoo!
Nothing like a good old
Georgia ass-whupping.
Just trying to keep
you boys inspired.
How's this headline
for inspiration?
"Negro Pilot Dies Because He's
it's been through a shredder.
How are you going to
explain that to Coffee?
By explaining to him that I'm
the one who blew up the train.
You boys go on ahead.
I've spotted something.
Lightning destroyed
another one.
Look at that mess.
Look at that mess.
