a fighter pilot's dream.

Their main job, although
they struck many other blows,

00:00:13.020 --> 00:00:16.440 align:middle line:84%
was to escort and protect our
heavy four-engine bombers,

00:00:16.440 --> 00:00:20.360 align:middle line:84%
the big friends against
the Focke-Wulf 190s,

Could be.

00:00:42.940 --> 00:00:45.460 align:middle line:84%

Our men see them above
the grim fight and cheer.
