"Ang on....the Colonel said he couldn't go over the top wiv the rest of the lads cos he had important messages to pass to HQ. But the end of this telephone wire is just jammed into a crack in this wall.
"Yes, we're still managing to hold on here despite near constant Jerry attacks, ...but it's this damn gas that is testing the men, and these masks are all but useless. Tell cook to go easy on the baked beans from now on."

Hello, Ladbrokes? I understand you are running a book on the latest British assault casualties? You are? Excellent! I'd like to place 100 Guineas on 15000 by the end of the day please. Thank you.

Hello, is that Lloyds bank? This is Major Hoskins, we have just captured an SS truck outside Bern and I am wondering, Is it possible to transfer a rather large consignment of white fivers from here to my account?

It was a big day for Private Hoskins. After the examiners graded his performance and called in the results, he was cleared to perform the stuck-in-a-glass-box-mime without using any props

Lots of great entries, as always, and I can only name a few. But I have to do that, so:
Runners up, in no particular order:
Buster, with "Yes, thank you...so it's one small Hawaiian, one small Capricciosa and a small Vegetarian with extra Ham please..."
622 with: Sorry Dear, bit busy at work here .....could you call the plumber yourself!
Traffic, with: "Ang on....the Colonel said he couldn't go over the top wiv the rest of the lads cos he had important messages to pass to HQ. But the end of this telephone wire is just jammed into a crack in this wall."
And the winner of the coveted CapComp trophy is Treadigraph, with:
Hello Helmut - I'm going for... D3...
Hit... Damn you Tommy Atkins, zat was mein Kommandant's little tank!
Congratulations to all! The trophy will be dispatched as soon as I can get this damn phone working . . .
