"Repeat, please!"

In a dramatization of real events, RAF Training Squadron T5, composed of Polish emigres and refugees including survivors of the Polish Air Force, is ordered to return to base when their flight intersects with an incoming German air raid. The Poles pretend they didn't understand the orders and turn to attack the German bomber flight, seeking vengeance for their conquered homeland (with their hapless instructor frantically turning to join them when he realizes what they're doing). The next day, they are chewed out for disobeying orders and violating communications protocol (i.e. speaking Polish instead of English on the radio)... and then congratulated on their victory and activated for combat as 303 Squadron, who will become legendary for their bravery in air combat.

How well does it match the trope?
