As my old Dad used to say when he heard news like this from Germany: I got this RAF tie for bombing Nazi b*st*rds, and I obviously missed a few.

(I was going to say just: bombing the b*'s, but he used the word Nazi to mean bad Germans.)

There are many many good Germans. They obviously just don't run LH.
