Next Time on Urza's Splendid Stint at Stanhope...



"Sir, I can't help but think our squadron choice won't go down well with ... them."

"I know. But this is a war son. Someone has to do the difficult but necessary thing."



"Hell of a way to start the day."

"It would be rude of us to neglect crashing a Luftwaffe party this big. Tell Mallory at Sector 12 that he may get his big wing interception yet."




"I think that's the last of th- NEW CONTACTS INBOUND. ETA 30 minutes."

"No need to panic folks. Inform our sector commanders that the enemy has come back for more."



"Flight Lead... what are the krauts doing?"

"Honestly Ensign, I have no idea but that formation frightens me. Let's blow it to pieces."




"Man we're really racking up the butcher's bill today. I wonder if anyone is going to make ace tod-"

"Cut the chatter and focus on the Krauts in front. Nothing kills like carelessness up here."



"Sir, our sector commanders report that their airfield crews are being overwhelmed."

"Tell them to prioritize getting the lightly damaged squadrons airborne ASAP. The day isn't over yet. The squadrons that suffered significant losses will have to wait."




"Weymouth Port Authorities are still fighting major fires left over from the previous raid. They are begging for RAF fighter cover!"

"Tell them to bunker down. RAF Fighter Command has no reserves left to call upon in sector 10. They are on their own."

"Sir! The 110 escorts are rapidly lowering their altitude!"

"My God, they're going to strafe the docks..."



With mounting casualties and tough calls, can the RAF and perhaps even Britain be saved? Find out next time on Urza's Splendid Stint at Stanhope!
