How about,
"Jan Smutts Twr, we think we lost the Glide Slope?"

Or

"Waterkloof Ops, we located the target"

Caption for Shackleton Pic:


The sign says NO SMOKING within 60 Feet. Well then, I guess a start is out of the question.


[Based on my memory of some Shackletons operating from Darwin in the mid '60s, when I was a nipper.]

Ja, mijnheer, Captain van de Meerve of the Zuid Afrikaans police here. We have reason to believe that you may have stashed several tons of Coke on your roof.........

(Apologies to any Yarp-mates for the cr@p attempt at Afrikaans...)

"Let me get this right boss, we dress up like this so they think we cant be American, because Americans in disguise would not dress like this 'cause people would think they were Americans, so we cant be Americans right, and we drop this disguised fuel air bomb disguised as a ummmm fuel station, 'cause no one would expect a fuel station to be a real fuel air bomb. Am I getting close? Phew talk about black ops............."

Is it my imagination or does it say on the side of that Coke Building

'Drink, not sniff...'

The Shack of course needs a thought bubble, Uncle Roger style,

"Coca-Cola/Pepsi wars get out of hand when Coca-Cola authorised the purchase of anti-Pepsi-ship equipment. Their budget being limited....."

(Shacks were used in ASW, right? if not then change it to trying to detect Pepsi's Concorde, speaking of which...)

"With the painting of a concorde Coca-cola weren't to be outdone..."
