I appreciate that in any production, film, TV, whatever, you have to suspend belief, and allow for some artistic licence, but Major de Coverley’s (Hugh Laurie) trip into Bologna was a doozy.
Yossarian raised the string on the bombing map above Bologna, to give the impression that Bologna was now in Allied hands, and he wouldn’t be sent on a mission to bomb it.
Major de Coverley is sent to Bologna to scout out billets for U.S. officers.
Not only does he apparently fly into a German airfield, he has a Jeep adorned with a white star, in which he drives into central Bologna, unnoticed by the enemy, and walks into a briefing room, filled with German troops, after pulling down a swastika flag flying outside.
Fair enough, you have to think that he was probably captured then, but how the hell did he get that far?
Blimey it was a fun series not a documentary.Yossarian raised the string on the bombing map above Bologna, to give the impression that Bologna was now in Allied hands, and he wouldn’t be sent on a mission to bomb it.
