00:02:30Adolf Hitler immediately ordered an attack on France, but his offensive was postponed until spring 1940.
00:02:38On May 10th, Hitler's Nazi Germany invaded France.
00:02:42Allied troops from all over Europe were pushed back to Paris and then to the coast.
00:02:48Britain evacuated hundreds of thousands of military refugees from Dunkirk from May 26th to June 4th.
00:02:55Barely one month later, in early July of 1940, Nazi Germany began what was to become known as the Battle of Britain.
00:03:05Germany's air force, called the Luftwaffe, began bombing harbors along Britain's east coast.
00:03:10The British Royal Air Force, especially the RAF Fighter Command, fought furiously.
00:03:18By September of 1940, the Nazis switched their targets to large British cities.
00:03:24This continued for almost a year, lasting until May of 1941.
00:03:28Terrifying civilians with wave after wave of night bombings called the Blitz, German bombers left large portions of London in rubble.
00:03:38Part of the Battle of Britain was fought on the radio, and propaganda stars on both sides were created.
00:03:45Many are familiar with Germany's Dresden Dahl, Brunelda von Vollenberg, who was swept up by the Nazi party when she was a theater star in Berlin.
00:03:56Britain had its own silk voices that preyed on the emotional weaknesses of enemy pilots.
00:04:00One was Marguerite of der Heide.
00:04:04And again, good evening.
00:04:09Here is Marguerite of der Heide.
00:04:14Ich richte mich an die Piloten und Mannschaften der Kampfflugzeuge, die sich momentan in der Luft befinden,
00:04:26in Vorbereitung eines erneuten Bombardements von London und Umgebung.
00:04:34Ich habe mich jeden Abend an sie gewendet, habe sie angefleht, mit dem, was sie tun, aufzuhören und nach Deutschland zurückzukehren,
00:04:51ohne weitere unschuldige Menschen zu ermorden.
00:04:58Hierzu gehören viele Kinder.
00:05:01Meine Worte sind bisher auf taube Ohren gestoßen.
00:05:10Am heutigen Abend ändert sich der Inhalt meiner Botschaft.
00:05:19Ich weiß, sie glauben, dass sie nur dem Befehl ihrer Vorgesetzten folgen,
00:05:28aber das entschuldigte nicht diese grässliche Zerstörung.
00:05:36Die Zerstörung von Briten
00:05:45Was strong.
00:05:47By the summer of 1941, German attacks subsided.
00:05:51On Sunday, December 7, 1941, Japan attacked the United States Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor.
00:05:58Germany immediately declared war on the United States, in solidarity with Japan.
00:06:04This resulted in the United States declaring war on Germany,
00:06:08which was a move that the British people and the Royal Air Force High Command had been hoping for.
00:06:14Oh, you must be Major Thompson.
00:06:26Yes, sir. May I come in?
00:06:28Certainly. Please be seated.
00:06:30Thank you, Air Marshal Wilkins. Thank you.
00:06:33Uh, it's Vice Air Marshal, if you don't mind.
00:06:38Marshal Wilkins is fine.
00:06:40When did you arrive in London?
00:06:42Yesterday.
00:06:42Any problems with your journey?
00:06:45No, uh, no problems at all, but I'm certainly well aware of the problems that do exist here.
00:06:52Unfortunately, all around us.
00:06:54But at the moment, none right above our heads.
00:06:57Before we get into the discussion, Marshal Wilkins, let me express to you my personal admiration
00:07:02for the people of England, particularly here in London, during the Battle of Britain.
00:07:08Just an amazing amount of courage expressed there.
00:07:10We have had tremendous support from our civilians in all forms.
00:07:17Well, that's so good.
00:07:18Now, what kind of support can we give you?
00:07:21What do you need from us?
00:07:23Specifically, aircraft.
00:07:26You're talking about bombers, fighters, that sort of thing?
00:07:29Yes, combat aircraft.
00:07:31I really hate to tell you this, Marshal Wilkins, since this is your primary request of us, and
00:07:38that is we're going to have to decline for the present moment.
00:07:41Ah.
00:07:42Most disappointing.
00:07:45Most disappointing, Major.
00:07:48We have a number of wonderful aircraft that are coming off the drawing boards.
00:07:53But right now, today, everything we've got that flies is in the Pacific.
00:07:58You've got to remember, less than three months ago was Pearl Harbor.
00:08:01Major Thompson, if you don't mind my asking, what is your specialty?
00:08:07Intelligence.
00:08:08Same as mine.
00:08:10Then would you support us sharing intelligence?
00:08:14Not to be dismissive, Major, but we have operatives all over Europe.
00:08:21Yes, sir.
00:08:22And so do we.
00:08:25I'd like to see evidence of that.
00:08:27Well, I have that for you.
00:08:28It's in my valise, which my aide in the lobby is holding for me right now.
00:08:34Three documents that were circulated in the high command of the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain.
00:08:40All of them initiated by Hitler himself.
00:08:44Now, one document, which was issued before the Battle of Britain,
00:08:49clearly says that Hitler does not want to target civilians.
00:08:55The second document was issued just before the bombing of London.
00:09:01Hitler is furious that the Germans have not maintained air superiority,
00:09:06even gained it, over Great Britain.
00:09:09And then the third document.
00:09:11The third document is from Hitler just before the attack ends.
00:09:15And he's giving his reasons for backing off on subjugating Great Britain,
00:09:22at least for the moment.
00:09:23I'd like to share these documents with my colleagues.
00:09:28You mean you do not have these documents?
00:09:33No, I have not.
00:09:36And the fact that you have them, to me, is extraordinary.
00:09:41How about we work on this thing together?
00:09:45Indeed.
00:09:46Indeed.
00:09:46Indeed.
00:09:46Indeed.
00:10:11Good morning, Joe.
00:10:26It's time for your morning water.
00:10:32I know you're thirsty.
00:10:35You can go back to sleep after this.
00:10:37Good morning.
00:10:41Very good.
00:11:00Lunch should be here in a little while.
00:11:01I know you're a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a
00:11:31Good morning, Mr. Szebralski.
00:11:38Good morning, Nurse Marie.
00:11:40I hope your day is going well.
00:11:43Honestly, I'm still worried about this boy we have here.
00:11:47Nurse Marie, pardon me for one moment.
00:11:48I must sit down.
00:11:56So, this child, this boy, does he have pneumonia like me?
00:12:02No, it was pulled from the wreckage during the Blitz.
00:12:07That long ago? He's been here that long.
00:12:10Yes, we believe he had a head injury.
00:12:14Why does he not speak?
00:12:16Only one word, Joe.
00:12:20It must be his name, like mine, Joseph.
00:12:31I'm afraid your pneumonia is getting worse.
00:12:36Yes, I fear you may be right.
00:12:39Tell me, does your building have sufficient heat?
00:12:43Only in the common areas.
00:12:45And there are no beds in the common areas.
00:12:49Sounds very uncomfortable.
00:12:51It is, but it's still better than, well, the alleyways of Dunkirk.
00:12:58Come with me.
00:12:59We'll take your temperature and then see the doctor.
00:13:02This kind of neurological injury can be such a bloody mystery.
00:13:31There's no signs of bleeding on the brain.
00:13:34Is he walking and standing on his own?
00:13:37Not that I've seen, Dr. Binghamton.
00:13:39The thing I'm concerned about is muscle deterioration.
00:13:43He does a little more than just lay there.
00:13:47He just...
00:13:49Not enough to build up his own strength.
00:13:53Nurse Marie, I may have asked you this before, but where do you come from?
00:13:57I come from a small town in western Kansas, Garden City.
00:14:03Ah, okay.
00:14:04Kind of like, uh, Tornado Country and the Wizard of Oz.
00:14:09Tornadoes do exist, but you rarely see them.
00:14:13I remember you telling me about your parents.
00:14:16When you moved here during the Great War in 18.
00:14:20That's right.
00:14:21Fell in love with England.
00:14:22Certainly let me know if this young man's ability changes.
00:14:28I will.
00:14:32Bravo, Major Thompson.
00:14:35Outstanding.
00:14:35Well, you must have heard about our raid on Tokyo.
00:14:38Of course.
00:14:39Everyone's talking about it.
00:14:41Very well executed.
00:14:42But tell me about this raid that you're planning.
00:14:47A thousand bombers?
00:14:49Originally, I had thought that if we could get close to 850 planes, I would still call it
00:14:58a thousand plane raid, primarily for the headlines and morale.
00:15:03Obviously.
00:15:04However, now it appears that we no longer have to overestimate our plane numbers because we
00:15:15have achieved our goal.
00:15:16How were you able to do that?
00:15:19The Wellington Program.
00:15:22Wellington.
00:17:27It's a kite with engines, but we'll do the job.
00:17:30How many of those 1,000 planes are Wellingtons?
00:17:33A little over 600.
00:17:36How did you do that?
00:17:38Available materials.
00:17:40Well, more importantly, how were you able to do that with the attack going on in London?
00:17:46Most of them were not assembled in London.
00:17:50Quite a number were assembled in Ireland, Scotland, barns, warehouses, wherever.
00:17:59I must say, what an extraordinary feat of organization.
00:18:04The people working with me on this are quite industrious.
00:18:08Indeed.
00:18:10But now, as I recall, the Wellington does not have a large payload at all.
00:18:14Right you are.
00:18:16That's why we primarily are planning to use incendiaries.
00:18:22Incendiaries?
00:18:23Well, now what would be your target?
00:18:25Hamburg.
00:18:26Or, secondarily, Cologne, depending on the weather.
00:18:30So, by targeting a city, what you'll do is create a mirror image of what happened here in London with your civilian population.
00:18:44Major, the English people are perceived as being a very patient knot.
00:18:49However, that patience has run out.
00:18:53The English people now seek retribution.
00:19:00Good evening.
00:19:12Do you have a dark water course?
00:19:17May I want this?
00:19:30Busy night.
00:19:41Well, is that some kind of joke?
00:19:43Who are you?
00:19:47Colonel Andrei Sanoslovsky, Polish Air Force.
00:19:51Polish Air Force?
00:19:53That ain't no such thing.
00:19:55I assure you, sir, we exist.
00:20:00Well, I remember the bleeding Nazis kicking your ass.
00:20:08In 39, the Polish Army and Air Force fought a valiant struggle.
00:20:15They squashed you like a bug.
00:20:18Sir, we endured 35 days of bloody, brutal, vicious combat.
00:20:27You want bloody, you want brutal.
00:20:30I'll give you bloody and brutal.
00:20:33That was the trenches.
00:20:34That was 1918.
00:20:35Mr. Drake, for someone who works with the public, I would suggest a better disposition.
00:20:46It might help bring some customers in here.
00:20:49At the present, I am in charge of the Polish air crews.
00:20:52Two hundred men are housed a few blocks from here.
00:20:55Well, why is it that I need to know this?
00:20:58When they are in need of recreation, will they be welcomed at this establishment?
00:21:04Well, they got some of this?
00:21:07If they do not pay their tabs, they will answer to me.
00:21:11All right, then.
00:21:14All right, then.
00:21:14All right, then.
00:21:14Come in.
00:21:36Vice Air Marshal Wilkins.
00:21:45Quite correct.
00:21:46And you are?
00:21:48Colonel Andrzej Stanislowski, Polish Air Command.
00:21:52At your service, sir.
00:21:52Pleasure to make your acquaintance.
00:21:56Likewise.
00:21:57Please be seated.
00:22:04I'm happy that England was able to assist you in your departure from France.
00:22:10That assistance was most appreciated, sir.
00:22:12So, how are you and your men doing?
00:22:17We are alive, which was something in serious doubt before we arrived in your country.
00:22:24I imagine that they are quartering you in those drafty warehouses in Poplar.
00:22:31A far improvement over the gutters of Dunkirk, sir.
00:22:34Colonel, it's my understanding that you have some 60 men with aircraft training and expertise.
00:22:44That number, sir, is a serious underestimate.
00:22:48Well, please provide me with the correct number.
00:22:52We have 60 pilots, sir.
00:22:54In addition to navigators, radio operators, and some very fine mechanics.
00:23:00The number would top 200.
00:23:03Very good.
00:23:05So, Colonel, regarding light bombers, how many crews can you put together for me?
00:23:1350 minimum.
00:23:15Excellent.
00:23:17We must have a detailed discussion.
00:23:20The RAF is planning operations for bombing multiple sites in western Germany.
00:23:29Are you all right, Colonel?
00:23:41Am I to understand you wish to use my men in a bombing operation against Germany?
00:23:51Part of a large operation, certainly.
00:23:55The RAF will be providing the planes and additional training.
00:24:01Of course.
00:24:02This operation will be executed in cooperation with the United States Army Air Corps.
00:24:12I'm having a meeting tomorrow evening with Major Thompson of the United States Army Air Corps.
00:24:20Would you like to be part of that meeting?
00:24:23Absolutely.
00:24:24I would be most honored to be there.
00:24:26Please understand that my men and I are available for anything you have in mind.
00:24:37Splendid.
00:24:38Tomorrow afternoon, before meeting with Major Thompson,
00:24:42I would like for you to take a look at the aircraft that your men will be working with.
00:24:48It's called a Wellington.
00:24:49A Wellington.
00:25:03I'm going to talk.
00:27:05Joe.
00:27:07Joe.
00:27:09Joe.
00:27:11Joe.
00:27:13Joe.
00:27:15Joe.
00:27:19Joe.
00:27:21Joe.
00:27:23Joe.
00:27:25Joe.
00:27:27Joe.
00:27:29Joe.
00:27:31Joe.
00:27:37Joe.
00:27:39Joe.
00:27:41Joe.
00:27:49Joe.
00:27:51Joe.
00:27:53Joe.
00:27:59Joe.
00:28:01Joe.
00:28:03Joe.
00:28:11Joe.
00:28:13Joe.
00:28:15Joe.
00:28:17Joe.
00:28:27Joe.
00:28:29Joe.
00:28:31Joe.
00:28:33Joe.
00:28:34Joe.
00:28:35Joe.
00:28:37Joe.
00:28:39Joe.
00:28:41Joe.
00:28:43Joe.
00:28:45Joe.
00:28:47ailments that the others are complaining about. Is this young man affected?
00:28:52No, I isolated him. That was a good move on your part. Thank you. Do you think you
00:28:59might be able to get me some help in here? Nurse Marie, I don't know.
00:29:11I know you've been holding us down primarily by yourself.
00:29:17But the war effort is pulling more nurses away to train for field hospitals.
00:29:22I understand. The war is going to get bigger. Much bigger I'm afraid. The war is going to
00:29:29need more doctors and nurses as well and they'll be fractionating my time again.
00:29:38We're both pretty good at what we do. Yes, a blessing and a curse.
00:29:44I know what it is. I'm new.
00:29:51I know what it is. I'm new.
00:29:58I know what it is. I'm new.
00:30:03I'm new.
00:30:05I'm new.
00:30:07I'm new.
00:30:09I don't know.
00:30:39I know what that is, I know what that does, a little different, but...
00:31:09My comrades, they are...
00:31:19Yes, they can.
00:31:22This will not be a problem.
00:31:30Es ist ein krasser Irrtum, den Sie und Ihre Regierung begehen.
00:31:38Der größte Teil der Welt hat sich mit uns verbündet in diesem Kampf gegen Furcht und Tyrannei.
00:31:52Ein Kampf, den Sie und Ihre Regierung angefangen haben.
00:32:00Es wird keine Invasion geben.
00:32:04Bald werden es Royal Air Force Flieger sein, die Bomben über deutschen Städten abwerfen.
00:32:16Bald werden es Ihre Familien sein, die aufschreien.
00:32:26Bald werden Sie verstehen, was wir durchmachen mussten.
00:32:42Und vergessen Sie nicht. Sie haben es selbst verursacht.
00:32:58Just me, Henry.
00:33:18I had an interesting day.
00:33:20I fetched a sandwich before I went in.
00:33:24And ran into Charlie.
00:33:26Charlie?
00:33:28You mean Charlie from the pub?
00:33:30Indeed.
00:33:32He told me about last Friday.
00:33:36About what?
00:33:38He says...
00:33:40Some new fliers came in.
00:33:42And all you could do was raise your voice and make them feel unwelcome.
00:33:48What business Charlie?
00:33:50What business Charlie got?
00:33:52What business Charlie got?
00:33:54Reporting to you what I'm saying.
00:33:56He's just worried about you.
00:33:59Henry, that's all.
00:34:01Yeah, well, welcome to me.
00:34:04I remember, Henry.
00:34:09Just as you do.
00:34:11Last Friday marked one year.
00:34:13Yeah.
00:34:16Yeah.
00:34:18Since we lost our boy.
00:34:21Georgie.
00:34:25I'm feeling like I...
00:34:28Like I moved beyond that now.
00:34:32And I don't want to move beyond that.
00:34:38I understand.
00:34:40Not knowing is incredibly painful.
00:34:46Remember.
00:34:50We can talk about anything.
00:34:53Anytime you need.
00:34:58I'm sorry.
00:34:59I...
00:35:00I ain't been listening to your broadcasts.
00:35:05I said I would.
00:35:07And I ain't picked up on a German.
00:35:12I promised you I would 20 years ago when we married.
00:35:19Here we go again.
00:35:21You know what?
00:35:33I oughta hate Germany.
00:35:35I really should.
00:35:37But they come up with you, didn't they?
00:35:41You gotta give them that.
00:35:44You gotta give them that.
00:35:58So, Colonel Dennis...
00:35:59Andre, please.
00:36:00Andre it is.
00:36:01Now, Air Marshal Wilkins gave you a look today at the Wellington.
00:36:07What did you think of it?
00:36:08Yes, and I found it to be quite geometric.
00:36:12So right you are.
00:36:14Major Thompson has likened it to a kite with engines.
00:36:18If that is an accurate description, then the plane could glide a great distance in case of engine failure.
00:36:24Well, it certainly could.
00:36:27Did you get a chance to sit in the pilot's seat and get that view?
00:36:30Yes, and I was amazed. Everything was so, so new.
00:36:35As a matter of fact, that particular Wellington rolled off of assembly approximately two weeks ago.
00:36:41The design and everything is so new.
00:36:43Please understand that when Germany invaded my homeland, we fought back with what you'd call antiques.
00:36:50Well, do you think these new planes will be a problem with your pilots?
00:36:54Quite the opposite. They would love it. Especially Josef.
00:36:59Josef?
00:37:00Josef Saprosky, our squadron leader and perhaps our best pilot.
00:37:07But I do have a technical question.
00:37:10And that is?
00:37:12Understanding the relatively light payload.
00:37:15Forty-five hundred kilos.
00:37:17That's about average for a light bomber.
00:37:21But considering the design of the Wellington, I was thinking that it could have another usage.
00:37:29That's quite astute and perceptive.
00:37:33A squadron of Wellingtons is being outfitted for launching torpedoes.
00:37:39A new mission for an aircraft that can fly low and slow.
00:37:44Submarine hunter.
00:37:45Yes.
00:37:46But this is a bombing mission.
00:37:49We have some of our new Lancasters, which are four engine bombers.
00:37:55But the majority of the planes in this mission will be Wellingtons.
00:38:02And the number will probably be close to six hundred.
00:38:04Vice Marshal, in total, how many bombers do you intend on sending on this mission?
00:38:15I think that the number will probably pop out at around a thousand.
00:38:19Bojo Moy!
00:38:20That is astounding!
00:38:23Well, we would hope, with a rate of this magnitude, that we would be able to bring an early end of the war.
00:38:30But if this does not occur, then what will happen?
00:38:34As you heard the air marshal say, the production of the Lancaster is going at full steam.
00:38:41And certainly, we plan to send over as many heavy bombers as we can, as soon as we can, beginning early next year.
00:38:50So I would imagine, a year from now, these guys over here will be filled with heavy bombers from the RAF, from the Army Air Corps.
00:39:00Andre, as I mentioned yesterday, we are already planning further strikes against Germany, beyond this first massive raid.
00:39:12Using your Wellingtons?
00:39:15And crews like yours.
00:39:30What do you mean, Mr. Drake?
00:39:38Is this one of your pilots?
00:39:40Yes, one of our best.
00:39:42Josef Shabros here. Squadron leader.
00:39:45Oi Charles, did you hear that? Squadron leader, no less.
00:39:51Squadrons of what, actually?
00:39:53Where are you blokes from?
00:39:55Poland.
00:39:57Poland? Good Lord!
00:39:58I thought there was nothing left of Poland.
00:40:01For your sake, sir, I hope that is not true.
00:40:05So when did you pilots fly back home?
00:40:08Kites?
00:40:10Our vessels may have been antiquated, but we fought like devils.
00:40:22So Josef, tell me, what have you seen here in London that you admire the most?
00:40:26The women.
00:40:28Lots of pretty cats.
00:40:30Polish.
00:40:32A word of advice.
00:40:37Keep away from English ladies.
00:40:40Thanks, Henry.
00:40:42That should cover us.
00:40:45We will order now.
00:40:46Oh, good morning, Mercenary. How are you today?
00:40:51Well, look at you. You must be feeling better.
00:40:57Oh, yes, I have no fever and I got some wonderful news today.
00:41:02Tell me more.
00:41:03Well, your wonderful RAF has given me an opportunity and this man right here that you were looking at will get to fly again.
00:41:15I see. So back in Poland, you were a pilot?
00:41:18I was. And your Royal Air Force is giving me and all the other refugee pilots a chance to fly again because they've lost so many pilots in this battle for Britain.
00:41:30This country has lost many people.
00:41:36So has Poland and everywhere else those Nazi devils have touched.
00:41:42I imagine you'll need a work release for the service.
00:41:45I...I will need one, yes.
00:41:51And after you give me one, I intend to go for a very nice walk.
00:41:56And I'm going to smile at everyone I see.
00:41:59And I'm sure you'll find your way to a pub.
00:42:03Now that...that sounds like a great idea.
00:42:08You'll need a follow-up next week.
00:42:10Whatever you think is necessary, Nurse Marie.
00:42:12Ah, talk yeah!
00:42:15We are flying again!
00:42:17Your Royal Air Force was kind enough to take us on!
00:42:21Now I remember why I hate Polis.
00:42:25Because they don't know when to keep their mouth shut!
00:42:30Yosef!
00:42:32What's your name?
00:42:33What's your name?
00:42:39Yosef?
00:42:40Do you need something?
00:42:43Polish?
00:42:45I am here to give you a report.
00:42:47About what?
00:42:49About your English latest.
00:42:51Captain Szebrowski!
00:42:53Last night, I had two of them come with me to my quarters.
00:42:57And they were so grateful!
00:42:59You liar!
00:43:00Fight!
00:43:01This I can appreciate!
00:43:02Stop it!
00:43:03Who spoke with you?
00:43:04Both of you!
00:43:05My God!
00:43:06What do you want to do?
00:43:07Make the Nazis work easier for them?
00:43:09Do you know how many of you will return to see your families?
00:43:10We are fighting an enemy that is like a vicious cancer!
00:43:11Devouring everything in its path!
00:43:12So, Daytonland!
00:43:13Holland!
00:43:14Holland!
00:43:15France!
00:43:16Poland!
00:43:17Will England be next?
00:43:18You should be like brothers!
00:43:19You are not fighting for Poland!
00:43:20You are not fighting for Poland!
00:43:21You are not fighting only for England!
00:43:22You are fighting for the world!
00:43:24What are you doing?
00:43:25You should be like a soldier!
00:43:27You are fighting for Poland!
00:43:28You are not fighting for Belgium!
00:43:29You are fighting for the world!
00:43:34What are you doing?
00:43:36To XML!
00:43:42Hip, Hip!
00:43:43It will end the whole time!
00:43:48I forgot to ask you earlier, what is it that you fly?
00:44:09Spitfire.
00:44:11That is a glorious aircraft. I shall call you Spitfire from now on.
00:44:19Cheers.
00:44:20Let's go.
00:44:22Hey Charlie, you know what? I think he might be one of the good ones.
00:44:45All right, Mr. Shabrowski, it looks like you're clear on your follow-up.
00:45:10Excellent. And I want you to know, I did take your advice about sleeping in the common room.
00:45:17I had to move a bed out there if you could get me out if it was a cold.
00:45:24And it worked.
00:45:27Nurse Marie?
00:45:36I'm sorry, I'm just worried about this boy we have.
00:45:40The one you told me about?
00:45:42Yes.
00:45:43Is he getting this?
00:45:45He's getting better, physically.
00:45:48I see.
00:45:51But he still only says one word, Joe.
00:45:57Would you mind if I talk to him?
00:46:01I don't know.
00:46:04You see, I have some experience with people like him who have what you would call shell shock.
00:46:13Okay.
00:46:18Good evening, gentlemen.
00:46:23This is the Preston Dahl, the voice of Sarai.
00:46:27And I am here tonight with a special message for my Englishman.
00:46:33Have you forgotten your origins?
00:46:36You are Anglo-Saxons from the fatherland.
00:46:41For centuries, our countries have been very close.
00:46:45And I would like to be close to you again.
00:46:49Remember your Hanover monarchs, King George, and your magnificent Queen Victoria?
00:46:54Your current royal family is German.
00:46:59For the true name of the house is Saxa-Corbert-Gossa, not Vinza.
00:47:05We share the same blood.
00:47:08We should not be shedding each others.
00:47:11The Luftwaffe is no longer bombing your island.
00:47:14It is time that our peoples unite once more.
00:47:18For we are both part of the Aryan nation.
00:47:23But instead, my fine pilots of the Royal Air Force, you are collaborating with the Poles.
00:47:32They are Slavs.
00:47:34They are too feeble.
00:47:35They are too cowardly to operate aircraft.
00:47:40You are risking your lives working with them.
00:47:43They are only suitable for hard labor.
00:47:48You place yourselves in grave danger and they will degrade you.
00:47:56Too many young men have been killed already.
00:47:59You deserve to share in the glory of the Master Race.
00:48:04Proclaim your heritage and join us.
00:48:16Joe, I have someone here that would like to speak with you.
00:48:22Hello, Joe.
00:48:24Your name is Joe?
00:48:26You are Joe?
00:48:27You are Joe?
00:48:29You know something funny?
00:48:31My name is Joe too.
00:48:34I am Joe.
00:48:36And you are Joe.
00:48:40Your name is Joe.
00:48:42And I am Joe.
00:48:52No?
00:48:54Not Joe?
00:48:55No?
00:48:56No?
00:48:57No?
00:48:58No?
00:48:59No?
00:49:00No?
00:49:02No?
00:49:03No?
00:49:04No.
00:49:05No?
00:49:06No.
00:49:08No?
00:49:09It's Joe.
00:49:11It's Joe.
00:49:21Joe!
00:49:22Joe!
00:49:34Hey! What's your name?
00:49:41George!
00:49:47George.
00:49:52Pleased to meet you, George.
00:49:58I have to go check something.
00:50:00I have to go check it out.
00:50:06His parents are looking for him. I think his last name is Drake.
00:50:23Did you say...Dank?
00:50:29That's part of my family who was lost in the Blitz.
00:50:47Tomorrow is a big night, Andre.
00:50:53Your boys up to it?
00:50:55They have never been more so.
00:50:57Andre, once the bombers are airborne, Major Thompson and I will be here in the office waiting.
00:51:05We want to be close to the communications center so we can get those immediate updates as they come in.
00:51:11And you are more than welcome to wait here with us.
00:51:14My wife was killed when Germany invaded our homeland, Poland.
00:51:19Oh gosh, I'm sorry to hear that.
00:51:22She often said that I was a very good father.
00:51:26I would like to play the role of the good father once more.
00:51:30How so?
00:51:31When my boys take off for that mission, I want to be on that airfield watching them leave.
00:51:38And I would also like to be there when they return.
00:51:42You've got to have a long wait, Andre.
00:51:48I will have my wife to speak with.
00:51:52With your permission.
00:51:54Of course, most certainly.
00:52:12The Father von dem Faller.
00:52:25Colonel Hoffner, I understand you have an emergency matter to discuss.
00:52:30Ja, we've received information that the large RAF formation is in the air and headed towards Germany.
00:52:37What is their target?
00:52:39At first we thought it was Hamburg. But the weather in Hamburg is not ideal for this type of raid.
00:52:46So we don't believe that's a target. The British would know this.
00:52:50Of course they would. So where do you think they will strike?
00:52:55Don't worry. It won't be here in Berlin. The RAF doesn't have enough long-range bombers to launch such a large raid here.
00:53:04What precautions are you taking?
00:53:06Well, of course, everyone is on high alert. And the under-aircraft batteries, of course, and BF-109s are ready to respond immediately.
00:53:16How many bombers do you think they have?
00:53:23Our operatives have lost count.
00:53:26I do not understand how the British are able to man so many planes. They shot down so many of their aircraft.
00:53:32Yeah. They recruited them from the refugees that they evacuated at Dunkirk.
00:53:39What nationality are these refugees?
00:53:42Well, it varies. But the majority of the pilots are Poles.
00:53:46Dirty Poles.
00:53:49Dirty Poles.
00:54:21Spitfires!
00:54:35They're not coming, there's us!
00:54:38Dr. Chadder!
00:54:40Chico! Chico!
00:54:51Chico!
00:54:53Chico!
00:54:57Chico!

00:56:31Something special on mass communications radio lads.
00:56:35Don't lose focus.
00:56:37Good evening.
00:56:39This is the Thrustindal, the voice of the Rhyme.
00:56:44Pilots of the Royal Air Force.
00:56:46I am very, very disappointed in you.
00:56:50I offered you friendship.
00:56:52I invited you to share in our triumph.
00:56:56And you have betrayed your ancestry.
00:56:59You have made an alliance with these dirty Poles.
00:57:03How could you?
00:57:05Then will you learn that Polishness equals sub-humanity.
00:57:10The Poles, the Jews, and the Gypsies are on the same inferior level.
00:57:16Did you think you could deceive us?
00:57:21We are watching you.
00:57:23We follow your moves.
00:57:26We know that your aircraft are coming towards us.
00:57:29But it is not too late.
00:57:32Turn back!
00:57:33Turn back now!
00:57:36I hope you will listen to me.
00:57:40But if you do not, I shall tell you of what will happen if you drop one bomb on German territory.
00:57:47Poland is ours.
00:57:51We shall exact our justice upon the entire population, upon all the families and friends of those in your plains.
00:58:03Our Einsengruppen are most efficient.
00:58:07We shall cleanse the east of these vermin.
00:58:10Captain, this is navigations.
00:58:23Twenty minutes to target.
00:58:25I will see you.
00:58:26I will see you.
00:58:27I will see you.
00:58:27I will see you.
00:58:27I will see you.
00:58:27I will see you.
00:58:27I will see you.
00:58:40I will see you.
00:59:10I will see you.
00:59:40Enemy fight is coming in.
00:59:44Nine o'clock.
00:59:46Binsky aircraft!
00:59:48Some motion to get one of course, sir.
01:00:10I will see you
01:00:18as well as the one of my sins.

01:00:31You are ever having to do this before you live time.
01:00:33You are sorry to get it.
01:00:34You are huge.
01:00:35This is Brazilian, you are Happyảthing.
01:00:35So thank you.
01:00:36Give me your insight as well as such,

01:02:18It's the entrance to the village.
01:02:38Should I try to hit the cathedral?
01:02:40No, no!
01:02:49It's a catch! It's a catch!
01:02:52Terrace! Let's take a bomb in Terrace!
01:03:18It's a catch!
01:03:30Captain, the whole city is by you.
01:03:34Concentrated!
01:03:36We'll see you next time!
01:04:36Good work on the broadcast last night.
01:04:42It sounded personal, and that's what we want.
01:04:45I cannot believe this actually happened on German soil.
01:04:53Ja.
01:04:54And by the time of your next broadcast, I'll have an assessment of the damage.
01:04:59But it is substantial?
01:05:05Ja.
01:05:06It is.
01:05:09I have many friends in Cologne.
01:05:12They attended the university.
01:05:14I visited them many times.
01:05:17It was so beautiful.
01:05:19Ja.
01:05:21Go with your personal angle.
01:05:23That looks best.
01:05:25It is personal now.
01:05:27We are over France now, Captain.
01:05:54That woman is on broadcast again.
01:05:59This is not a good evening.
01:06:01This is Sébastien Dau, the voice of the world.
01:06:04And I know you can hear me as you fly in France after your brutal devastation of Cologne.
01:06:12Are you proud of yourself that you slaughtered so many civilians?
01:06:16The Reich would never engage in such dishonorable warfare.
01:06:21The Rings of Liekskrieg, we only raided military and industrial targets.
01:06:28But you deliberately attacked Cologne, a beautiful historic city.
01:06:35Its university, its university, its art and architecture were renowned.
01:06:40It had no fortifications, no soldiers.
01:06:43Most of the soldiers, most of the men were of a fighting.
01:06:47The inhabitants were women, children, and the elderly.
01:06:51How could they do you any harm?
01:06:53And yet you flew in and launched your explosives, your incendiary bombs, right into the residential areas.
01:07:06The people were engulfed in the spreading flames and they burned alive.
01:07:12So many innocent lives were lost, and so many more were left wounded with no place to live.
01:07:24You destroyed three thousand buildings, halls, hospitals, museums, churches, schools, stores.
01:07:33Less than ten were any kind of military function.
01:07:36We will never forget this.
01:07:43Did you think that you would break us?
01:07:47You have underestimated the will of the German people.
01:07:54They are far stronger than you can ever imagine.
01:08:01We will fight until victory is ours.
01:08:06You have a slug of the damage in the world.
01:08:09You have a slug of a slug of the flames!
01:08:10I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
01:08:40Refunding success. Congratulations. Have you seen any initial numbers on losses yet?
01:08:48Just coming in. It appears that it's going to be around four to five percent.
01:08:54Much better than our boys in Tokyo. Do you think this will help you achieve your major goal?
01:09:01Germany will see you can nearly destroy a major city in one night and want an early end of the war?
01:09:08Major, I don't know. It may simply strengthen the resolve of the Germans.
01:09:16But one thing we do know is that they now know that they are vulnerable.
01:09:23And whatever death and destruction they pour down on us will get poured down on them in return post-haste.
01:09:34Well, it looks like we're the only people left in the building.
01:09:39They're all out celebrating. And I am too in my own way.
01:09:47I have a request. May I call you Rob?
01:09:51Why, certainly. What can I do for you?
01:09:53I would like for us to have future meetings at my personal residence.
01:10:02Are you a drinking man?
01:10:06May I call you Malcolm?
01:10:07Certainly.
01:10:09I really have a fondness for brandy myself.
01:10:11It just so happens that at my residence, I have a healthy supply of brandy, but also quite a substantial amount of cognac.
01:10:26Begging to be consumed.
01:10:27Sweet cheers for the Royal Air Force!
01:10:34Hooray!
01:10:36Hooray!
01:10:37Hooray!
01:10:39Three cheers for the Polish Air Force!
01:10:42Hooray!

01:10:57Hooray!
01:10:58Hooray!
01:10:59Hooray!
01:11:00Hooray!
01:11:11Good morning. You must be the Drakes.
01:11:14Yes.
01:11:15Henry and Margaret.
01:11:16Please sit down. I have a couple of forms for you to fill out.
01:11:20Of course.
01:11:20Hooray!
01:11:25I bet you've been waiting a long time for this day.
01:11:34You have no idea. When do I get to see my boy?
01:11:38We'll go see him after we finish filling out the forms.
01:11:39It's been almost a year.
01:11:43It's been almost a year.
01:11:44It's been almost a year.
