and what?....were the Germans more allergic to salt water? what exactly was the advantage for a british pilot in the drink over a German?
if youre going to bomb another country you just have to live with the fact youre over enemy territory, it's just incredible people a criticising the British for having a 'home advantage', at least the British weren't using V bombs...talk about indiscriminate murder of civillians.
