Lt. Boyden:
[asking about mortar setup]
Everything OK? Alfie:
Ah, Leftenant Boyden Sir, if you don't mind me asking. What's the old man up to Now then? Lt. Boyden:
A lovely scheme Alfie. A lovely scheme. He's going to stir up a bit of fighting between the Italian's and German's. Alfie:
Well, how's he going to do that then Sir? Lt. Boyden:
First we open fire on the German's. Then our mortars hit the Italian's. Now the Italian's see the German column and vice versa. So both of them get to thinking its the British on the other side that's doing all the firing, you see? Alfie:
And they get themselves a bloody battle going. Lt. Boyden:
[laughing]
Right. Alfie:
Blimey, do you think we'll make it Sir? Lt. Boyden:
Know any good prayers Alfie?
