Why don't the film crew and Orchestra who are always present at the battle/crash/disaster scene never offer any help.

And the Polish Yank is always called "Kowalsky"
And:
The Polish Yank always has claustrophobia/aggrophobia/vertigo or just can't swim despite their next mission being an amphibious one.
The hard-drinking Irish Yank is errrr, hard drinking
The romantic, devil may care French Yank can play a musical instrument.
The Mexican Yank with the huge family back home is a cordon bleu chef (specialising in that oh-so-complicated dish...chilli con carne obviously).
The devious Italian Yank is an expert car mechanic who "learnt in his papa's workshop" and is gonna be a world class racing driver one day.
The scurrying, unitelligible Japanese Yank can fix anything that uses electricity.
And the big Scandinavian Yank.........he'll be back.

Annnd..the Serbian version of the Strela 10 can chase an F18 for 3.5 minutes, (at 480kts + probably covering the distance from Dover to Calais) in salvo shot flying better close formation than the Reds, home onto a drop tank and has a clockwork fuzing system that defies the laws of latax!

The French SF operate Mil 8!

3 UH1N from the carrier execute an inflight troop transfer en-route to save the day into 2 UH1B and 1 214 and the on board technician is able to strap on a wagon load of chain guns and rocket pods
