While everyone is lauding Masters of the Air, I think it’s worth mentioning how good Memphis Belle was when it was released in 1990. It was the first insight I had about how horrible the air war was in WW2 and the bravery of the aircrews

It is true. He was called Roman Stashkov. He took no role in the negotiations and seems to have enjoyed German hospitality. When he was asked whether he wanted white wine or claret with dinner, he responded: “which one is the stronger?”
