Lovely story of Gunnery-leader's attempts to get air-gunners to volunteer for the "tail-end Charlie" position.................the most vulnerable position in the aircraft.
Leader.........."You'll get an extra 6d a day........"
Gunner........."How much is that a month ?"
Leader........."Dunno, we've never had one last that long !"
