“Memphis Belle”





Here it comes – the enemy coast. From up here it looks the same as any other: houses, roads, green fields, factories, waterways – but they are the houses and fields of those who invade and oppress; they are the factories and roads of the people, who twice in one generation, have flooded the world with suffering - suffering in such quantities that the history of the human race has never known.”
From the commentary of the WWII United States War Department movie The Memphis Belle: A Story of a Flying Fortress.
