I have to agree. however having been shot in the hip and having such a close call if it had been me the air would certainly been blue.
Im not saying he was not a legitimate target.
After reading Cloistermans memoirs ( a Frenchman serving in the RAF) about him straffing trains in France etc you soon realise vertually any target in war is legitimate.
How many French civilians were killed by allied bombing raids on France ?
After the German navy enigma codes were broke allied planners "allowed" west bound convoys to be intercepted by u-boat wolfpacks so as not to alert the Germans to the fact that their codes had been broken.
compared to this one man attacking a single landed Hurricane in the desert is no great moral dilemma.
Yesterday someone badly cut me up on the M25, I called him everything under the sun, had he actually tried to kill me on purpose i would not have just called him a bod.
