Battle of Britain - Film vs Reality
Having spent a morning ironing an ever increasing pile of shirts and watching one of the finest films ever, a couple of things sprang to mind:
1. Why am I ironing when Mrs M is perfectly capable?
2. I understand that Major Faltke was representative of Adolph Galland but when Maj Brandt and his erstwhile navigator are sent for interview without coffee for bombing London, was this correct? Did Brandt's less than capable navigator actually cuff it and bombs were released in the wrong place? If so, who were Brandt and nav in real life and what happened to them.
Back to the domestics; you can teach monkeys to iron, tacatacatac...
