You all right? You, okay? Lieutenant Boyden, sir.
You don't mind me asking... What's the old man up to now? A lovely scheme, Alfie.
A lovely scheme. He's going to start a bit of fighting
between the Italians and the Germans. How's he going to do that, sir? First we open fire on the Germans,
then our mortars hit the Italians. Now the Italians see the German's
column and vice-versa. So both of them got to
thinking it's the British army on the other side that's doing
all the firing, you see. And you got themselves
a bloody battle going. Right. - Blimey, you think we'll make it sir?
- Know any good prayer, Alfie?
