Brief school After Action Report (AAR) and the day's quote
Smith and Schaeffer have just torched a German train station, sort of accidentally on purpose.
Schaffer said: "They're not going to be very pleased."
"I shouldn't think so."
"They're really going to go after us now. They've Doberman pinschers up at the castle and I've no doubt they have them at the camp too. They've only to bring them to the station, sniff our packs, have them circle the station, pick up our scent and that's it. Smith and Schaffer torn to shreds. I'll take on the Alpenkorps one-by-one but I draw the line at Doberman pinschers, boss."
"I thought it was horses you were scared of?" Smith said mildly.
"Horses, Doberman pinschers, you name it, I'm scared of it. All it's got to have is four feet." He looked gloomily at the burning station. "I'd make a rotten vet."
