[underlined] “B” FOR “BAKER” [/underlined]
Written by: Rita Mortimer
Assisted By: Booty, Doris, Aud., Maisie, Cally, Tommy, and Boardy.
They call her “B” for “Baker”
And she’s considered tops
By all the men who take her
To Germany on “ops”.
A huge, four-engined Lancaster
And when she’s in the blue
No other plane can master
The things that she can do.
What of the men who tend her
When she has left the ground?
Who fearlessly defend her
When Huns are flying round.
Taking each of them in turn
We’ll introduce the crew,
So that everyone may learn
Their names and what they do.
The Pilot’s name is Terry
He drives his plane with care,
A sad look-out for Jerry
When Terry’s over there.
The Navigator’s nick-named ‘Muff’
He guides her on each flight
Its up to Muff to do his stuff
And get the target right.
The lad who owns the reckless grin
Is Denis – Engineer,
And when she’s flying to Berlin
Den. gives a darn good cheer.
Sitting calmly at his guns
Is the mid-upper – Jock,
He very quickly lets the Huns
Know he’s of Scottish Stock!
Johnny’s at the wireless set,
And sits with earphones tight
He’s very sure that they will get
Their Target for To-night.
Bomb-aiming is an easy life
Says Gerry with a grin
He sits and dreams about the wife
Until they reach Berlin.
Then last, but not the least, comes Joe
Who waits with rear-guns ready
On the look-out for the foe
With fingers calm and steady.
/over
[page break]
These seven stalwart airmen
Comprise a gallant crew
Out to show the German
What British lads can do.
These few and many others
Strive to keep us free
Fighting with their brothers
For Peace and Liberty.
There’s one thing left for us to do
So this last toast we’ll make her
A toast to both the plane and crew
Good Hunting “B” for “Baker”.
SPECIAL NOTE should be made of the fact that Booty (i.e. Miss. M. Bootyman) made some very good suggestions, and the best phrases are due to her.
With apologies for any grammatical errors I may have made.
R.M.

THE OBSERVER, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1942
“NEW ORDER” CRACKS: HITLER DEFIED
By A STUDENT OF EUROPE
THE last two weeks have brought a series of remarkable moves and speeches in the European enemy camp, in which the repercussions of the November storm can be clearly felt. A new political fashion is spreading over the Continent; it might be called Darlanism. It ranges in expression from somewhat clumsy face-saving attempts on the part of individual Axis puppets to serious political moves on the part of the minor Axis members.
An example of the former is the sudden and melodramatic resignation of the Greek puppet premier Tsolakoglu. This is, of course, no political event of consequence; it is significant only as a straw in the wind. It may be otherwise with the attempts at reinterpretation and reorientation of national policy in Hungary and Finland.
In Hungary, Prime Minister Kallay wound up the budget debate a fortnight ago with a speech, from which I intend to quote somewhat extensively, because it is the clearest and most outspoken expression yet available of the new trend of thought among the erstwhile adherents of the “New Order.” “German National Socialism,” he said, “should not be dragged into Hungary’s internal policy at all. In these unsettled times, where nothing has yet taken shape, programmes are being devised wholesale by both competent and incompetent persons. I am against programmes. My attitude is that all agitators, well meaning fanatics and liars who are fighting for selfish interests should be put out of action. We must not forget that we are moving towards times when not we alone shall decide the future of our country. We should not in these still uncertain times set ourselves aims which would result only in further disappointments and unfulfilled expectations. We want to preserve an independent Hungary; that is an aim in itself.”
WORDS, THEN DEEDS –
These are surprising sounds from a quarter where not so long ago “The New Europe” and “The New Order” were, as in all Axis countries, the stock-in-trade of official oratory. Nor is that all. Words were soon followed by deeds. Some days later, Kallay announced his refusal to join in the extermination policy against the Jews. And three days ago followed the most extraordinary step: the Hungarian Government ordered back the Hungarian workers from Germany, an order that amounts almost to a challenge.
Finland is in no position to offer such a challenge to Germany. She is dependent on Germany for food, and she has a German army on her soil. Considering that, her recent change of language is striking enough. “Democracy” and “the rights of small nations” were the key-words in President Ryti’s speech on the twenty-fifth anniversary of Finnish independence, when he was also at pains to stress the purely defensive character of Finland’s war. They were taken up by radio and Press, and amplified by scarcely veiled statements to the effect that “leading statesmen” must free themselves from “short-sighted thoughts of suppression” and “unreasonable national aspirations” and that “the rights of small nations must receive greater recognition than hitherto.” The Finnish Press has also been running quite a campaign of appreciation of the U.S. war-effort. Finland, too, has refused to take part in the persecution of the Jews.
To dot the i, here is the official German reaction to all this. “Ryti’s speech,” said a Wilhelmstrasse spokesman, “was clear, splendid, clever, and remarkable. It was the speech of a man who is not a Nazi but the President of democratic Finland. We highly appreciate the sentiments expressed in this speech.”
THREATS OF DEFECTION
Nothing could more strikingly illustrate the dissolution into which the “New Order” of German-dominated Europe has fallen under the recent Allied hammer blows. Not only are the collaborator States obviously trying to extricate themselves from the German net; it appears that Germany herself has lost the power to prevent them from doing so, and has no choice but to put a bold face on it. The reason for this is of course, the simple military fact that Germany’s forces have become over-stretched by the opening of the Mediterranean front and the Russian offensives. Germany has no longer the surplus power needed to quell possible rebellions in the ranks of her “allies.” She can no longer safely threaten her satellites; it is now she who has to bow to threats of defection.
The “New Order,” as it has been in existence for the last two years, has never been the streamlined, unified and Nazified Europe pictured by German propaganda. It has in the main been the old, bad, anarchic Europe of national hatreds, rivalries, and power-politics, only shorn of two murdered States, dominated by one overwhelming military force and clad into a new bombastic phraseology. Except Poland and Czecho-Slovakia the Nazis have not removed any national State as such; except in Norway they have nowhere put the local Nazis, the proper “Quislings,” in power. They have rather exploited national and provincial rivalries everywhere and tried to ally themselves with local respectability. Europe has in most places been run on Vichy lines.
For obvious reasons: For the Germans to “polonize” Europe would have meant a sustained internal military effort incompatible with the war against Britain, Russia, and America; and the forcing of Nazi governments on conquered and “allied” countries would have thrown them all in revolution and chaos. So long as the Germans wanted to extract the utmost war-economic profit from them, they could not afford this. For the duration of the war “respectable” national governments suited their book much better, even if not all their members could be completely trusted. The military power of Germany guaranteed, in the last resort, that they would toe the line. This constant military threat has, properly seen, been the only link of the “New Order.”
Now that link has snapped – and at once the “New Order” dissolves itself into its elements, which are national power-politics pure and simple. Darlan has set the model. Already Hungary and Finland are manoeuvring to save their position – and in the case of Hungary, as much as possi[missing letters] their gains. It seems as if their leade[missing letters] for some American support in su[missing letters] game. Bulgaria, Rumania, even, with a slight change of personalities at the top, Italy might follow suit if they succeed. And, together with the national status of their countries, these Governments hope to preserve the social position of the classes they represent. Again Kallay has been most outspoken, in a sentence unmistakably addressed to Britain and America: “I wish to emphasise that all those people are under a delusion who believe that the masses of Central Europe will agree together as soon as the leading classes are removed, and that this agreement is prevented only by Hungarian feudalism.”
A TEMPTATION
National power-politics carried on by the traditional ruling classes of the traditional continental countries – it is a most fascinating spectacle to see these rising like [missing word] Phoenix out of the ashes of the [missing word] Order.” If the process become[missing letter and words] marked, as it probably will, it will provide many tempting opportunities to political warfare – and many dangers to the building of a stable peace. We have no reason to discourage developments which may contribute to a speedier collapse of our enemies. But we have still less reason to encourage them to anything like the point of even the slightest commitment. We certainly have no ill-will against any European nation – or class – as such. But we can never sacrifice the interests of those who stood by us in our dark hours and suffered in our cause to those who tried to run with the hares and hunt with the hounds.
Moreover, we have one overwhelming interest in Europe ourselves: Peace. And peace, in the proper sense of the word, is not possible in an anarchic society of sovereign rival States. We fight this war to end anarchy in Europe, not to restore it under a new name. The measure of our readiness to forgive past sins and to welcome new friends can not be the skill with which they wangle out of a sinking ship; but only the sacrifices they make for the sake of building a real peace.

October 1915
Sung to the tune of “Sing me to Sleep” composed by a 17th Lancer.
1) Sing me to sleep where bullets fall
Let me forget the world and all
Damp is my dug-out, cold my feet.
Nothing but bully and biscuits to eat
Sing me to sleep where bombs explode
and Shrapnel shell all a-la-mode
Over the sand bags helmets you find
Corpses in front of you, corpses behind
[underlined] Chorus [/underlined]
Far far from Ypres I long to be
Where German snipers can’t pot at me
Think of me crouching where worms creep
Waiting for someone to sing me to sleep
[page break]
2) Sing me to sleep in some old shed
Where rats are running around my head
Stretched out upon my waterproof
Dodging the raindrops through the roof
Sing me to sleep where camp fires glow
And bleaching winds do not blow
Dreaming of home somewhere out west
Sorry old chap if my feet are on your chest
[underlined] Chorus [/underlined]
Written on YMCA writing paper headed “On Active Service” with the British Expeditionary Force.

“Our Crew”
December 18, 1944
Young men, boys almost, should truth be told,
Joined up, trained, shipped out; the goal was bold.
There was evil to the end; no patience, let’s rush,
We’ll do a job, Freedom must not be crushed
In England, Belgium, and Holland to name a few.
That is what held them, what made them a Crew.
First night, first flight, first op, first bombs gone,
Corkscrew, go! Left! Right! Stars, maps, onward home.
Night after night their strength, their skill, all caring
Spent again and again. Knew they were sharing
The sky, the very heavens, aloft with friends, others
Lost to wives, sons, daughters, fathers, and mothers.
Our Crew, our seven, carried the fight. In the morn
On WL-U, Halifax Bomber, more heroes were born.
They wished only peace in the beautiful place,
But together they fell, craft broken, through space.
For their loved ones, for us, they were all in accord
Allan, Harry, Divy, and Herb, Jim, Leslie, and Gord.
There’s a place, here and there, through the sky, over sea,
Where beautiful people of Belgium still live. Now we
Know of their long lasting love for our Crew,
A stele crafted with care, beside maples that grew.
Such remembrance, such love, such respect for our own
On Dailly Road, by green fields, under blue dome.
Leopoldsburg place, and Croft Aerodrome,
Where our boys lived and now rest feel like home.
The bluebells of Yorkshire – they saw them there.
But the bluebells of Belgium – they know not where.
Now rhodos in number, wonderous hues of all kind,
Background to dear headstones in May-time we find.
English hearts still remember young spirits did fly.
In York Minster, the Book, the Monument high,
Their names are scripted, each one on a page.
Fond memory is captured, their youth cannot age.
We remember these boys, these young men in blue,
Each December eighteen. For they are … our Crew.
Dale Plante, December 2004

1,500-ton raid on Kassel supply link
[inserted] No 16 22/10/43 [/inserted]
[italics] Sunday Express Air Reporter [/italics]
R.A.F. LANCASTER STATION, Saturday.
SELDOM, if ever, has a force composed solely of four-engined bombers been used against a single target in such strength as that which last night showered its [missing word] bombs on Kassel, capital of the twin German [missing word] of Hesse and Nassau.
In 35 minutes they dropped a load of more than 1,500 tons. To reach this important and heavily defended railway and industrial centre (population 216,000) the armada of Lancasters, Stirlings and Halifaxes made a round trip of 1,000 miles.
They flew most of the way through violent electrical storms, heavy rain and ice-laden cloud, but found clear skies within 50 miles of Kassel, and bright moon above their target.
Kassel as a railway centre ranks with Swindon. It links central and western Germany. War supplies for the Russian front have passed through it on a colossal scale.
There are vast marshalling yards at the western end of the city, and close to them, yet away from the residential area, are two enormous factory groups employing many thousands of war workers.
'Not heavy loss'
From preliminary reports there is good reason to believe the target was very successfully dealt with, and the loss of 44 bombers is not considered unduly high for results achieved.
Of the large force of Lancasters sent out from the station I am visiting all were safely back before dawn.
Many of the losses suffered by other squadrons were due to intense night-fighter activity.
Several crews at this station reported successful encounters with large forces of fast high-flying fighters.
Two terrific explosions, one giving an orange flash which rose to 4,000 feet above the target, were mentioned by nearly every crew.
Many large fires were started, and there are unanimous reports of a 12,000ft. column of thick black smoke as the raiders turned for home.
A description of fighter flare lanes and how they are laid was given me by Flying Officer Thomas Neison, former golf professional of North Berwick, who was mid-upper gunner last night in W. for William.
Clusters of flares
Fighters wait until our bombing has actually started. As soon as the target to be defended has been identified they can be seen streaking towards it.
They start by laying clusters of bright yellow flares over the target. Then they lay lanes and avenues of them criss-crossing its approaches and surroundings for a distance of perhaps 20 miles.
The flares are launched by parachute at intervals of about 400 yards. The flares are made almost stationary for about 20 minutes.
Bomber crews going in early see the lanes of flares forming up behind them.
Frankfurt was also attacked, while Mosquitos bombed targets at Cologne, and other formations laid mines.
