Von Richter has fallen from his perch,this has resulted in much weeping and wailing in the lodges of the Hun.
I was all for stamping on him when he landed,but, surrounded by Hun lovers who love his 'plumage'I have stayed my hand.
It's Christmas and I'm wondering,should The Von live or die.
ps
He's in an Airfix Albatros,your descsion is final.

O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum,
Du kannst mir sehr gefallen!

The news had come out in the First World War
The bloody Red Baron was flying once more
The Allied command ignored all of its men
And called on Snoopy to do it again.

Was the night before Christmas, 40 below
When Snoopy went up in search of his foe
He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought
With ice on his wings Snoopy knew he was caught.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ring out from the land
Asking peace of all the world
And good will to man

The Baron had Snoopy dead in his sights
He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight
Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know
Or was it the bells from the village below.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man

The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine
And forced him to land behind the enemy lines
Snoopy was certain that this was the end
When the Baron cried out, "Merry Christmas, my friend"

The Baron then offered a holiday toast
And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host
And then with a roar they were both on their way
Each knowing they'd meet on some other day.

Christmas bells those Christmas bells
Ringing through the land
Bringing peace to all the world
And good will to man

"Snoopy's Christmas"
The Royal Guardsmen

I think the term "hun" should be banned from the forum.I find it rather offensive.

Crash it, destroy it, paint it black-enamel
To make it a wreckage, those wings should be bent
Then start building an Airfix Camel
And let the two live on, my dear friend

I find the term "Yankee" offensive and believe it should be censored as well.

I'm rather defensive
About the word offensive
So here's the scoop
The new word's POOP
A name for each occasion
Person of Opposite Persuasion
