The Story Of The Return Of The Red Baron

Stuart Wallaby here in Blue Sector 6, somewhere in the Australian

Lines, where no less than five minutes ago, a Red German triplane

Smoking badly and definitely in trouble, passed overhead and then

Went down in some hills between the lines in No Man's Land. First

Reports indicate that the downed tripe was piloted by none other

Than Manfred von Richthofen, the Red Baron himself. We have no way

Of confirming this, but the general consensus is that no one could

Have survived the crash, as a large fireball was seen coming up from

The hills where the plane went down. Radio Berlin has emphatically

Denied that the Baron is dead. They do admit that Richthofen's plane

Was brought down, but they insist that he made good his escape and

Will soon fly again and rid the skies of the Allies. If indeed the

Baron is dead, the planned Allied offensive may proceed on schedule

Here now, from Red Sector 1, somewhere behind the

Lines, is an on-the-scene interview with a pilot who

Actually took part in the air battle this morning

This is Pierre Leclerc from Red Sector 1, somewhere behind the

Lines, and with me today is one of the Allied pilots who was

In the air during today's battle with the Richthofen flying

Circus. Tell me, sir, did you see Richthofen's plane go down?

Right you are, guv, he went down like a shot through the

Clouds in a camel on his tail, given it to him proper

Yes, but did you see the plane crash?

Blimey, no guv, I was a bit busy right about

Then with two of them blighters on me hotel

As you can see, reports from the battle zone are non-

Conclusive. The Allied offensive must begin. The Red Baron

Must be kept from the skies. Time is running out, as

The whole world wonders what has become of the Red Baron
