Notes: WWI story narrated by Combat Casey.

"When I was in bonnie England durin' big bang number two, I met a terrifc lassie there whose pop was a tar in the British navy in World War I! The stories that this old bloke told me made me forget I was supposed to hold hands with his daughter!...".

Combat Casey narrates this story of World War I, a format that later crystallized as the series "True Action-Packed Battle Stories of World War I, Told by ... Combat Casey ".
