Recap

Opens with the 918th squadron coming back from a bombing raid in Germany.
Lt. Col. Joe Gallagher sees General Savage’s plane smoking. He asks his co-pilot (Dan)
about it, but he thinks it’s just exhaust. A straggler B-17 is in view. Joe’s left waist
gunner spots it. Joe tells his co-pilot to fire the recognition flares, but the straggler
calls on radio. Since he seems legitimate, Joe tells the straggler to join the formation.
It does. Then the pilot of it tells his German crew to fire and General Savage is hit.
The wounded co-pilot tells Sergeant Komansky, the flight engineer, to fire the flares turning the command of the squadron over to Gallagher. Lt .Colonel Heindorf asks Gallagher if he can pursue the straggler. He says “negative”. Gallagher yells at the formation to close up, they’re flying all over the sky. With the General diving in flames, Heindorf asks Gallagher if he can ride herd on Savage. Negative. Heindorf pleads it is the skipper. Gallagher yells Get off the air! Look out for fighters and maintain radio silence...
