Bomber Harris:
Cochrane...!

Bomber Harris:
Don't go for a minute. What do you think of Wallis' idea for bursting the Ruhr Dams?

Air Vice-Marshal Cochrane:
It sounds a bit far-fetched. But, personally, I think it could be done.

Bomber Harris:
I hope you're right. Anyway, I've given it my support, and I've had orders to get ready. I want you to take it on.

Air Vice-Marshal Cochrane:

Bomber Harris:

Air Vice-Marshal Cochrane:
Do you have anyone in mind to command the squadron?

Bomber Harris:
Yes. Gibson.
