Just what Banana War was this exercise about? Or was it a loving gesture of fraternal camaraderie?

It was a big deal, Oyster. I could drop names but I'm a humble guy. Has anyone seen my missing Silver Star?

I think your silver star is in the same place as my good shoes.

I have laugh at some of the names we dream up for these operations. Torch, Round up, Market Garden, Husky and Overlord were fine for George Marshall but no longer.

Joe-
I was always fond of Operation Crazy Horse. Has anyone seen my missing Distinguished Service Cross?
