1941 - Admiration for Donna Stratton's Aviation Passion
Capt. Loomis Birkhead: [kneeling down as he spots Donna from a distance]
Is that the general's new secretary?
Pvt. DuBois:
Yeah, she just came in from HQ. Not bad, huh?
Capt. Loomis Birkhead:
Not bad? She's a goddess, DuBois, a goddamn goddess! That is Donna Stratton! I knew her back in Washington. She has got this thing for planes.
Pvt. DuBois:
One of those real high flying types, huh?
Capt. Loomis Birkhead:
I've never seen anything like it... she's got planes on the brain!
Gen. Joseph W. Stilwell: [annoyed]
Where's Birkhead? He's supposed to have my lunch.
Donna Stratton: [whistling, dreamy]
B-17. Mmm...
Capt. Loomis Birkhead:
No man has ever gotten to first base with her on the ground. But get her up in a plane, she'll bat your balls right out of the park.

What the hell is happening here?

It's that training mission from the Naval Air Station in Ft. Lauderdale.

Who flies crates like these anymore?

No one. These planes were reported missing in 1945.
Laughlin:
But it looks brand new. Where's the pilot? I don't understand. Where's the crew? Hey! How the hell did it get here?
