| 1 | * Spike's Jewish friend Lt. Joe Mostyn goes around captured Nazi soldiers taking their watches in exchange for what he claims to the non-English-speaking soldiers is a free-pass note for good treatment. It's actually a piece of paper with the words 'This is an Anti-Semitic bastard, knock the shit out of him' written on it. |
| 2 | * Amongst all the craziness, it's clear that D Battery contained some legitimately badass members. |
| 3 | ** Major Chater Jack displaying his enormous BrassBalls by completely ignoring being shot at by a German fighter plane - and then showing that he's not just a FearlessFool by telling the men of the battery, who on hearing the plane had dived into a ditch, that [[StealthMentor they did completely the right thing by taking cover.]] |
| 4 | ** Lieutenant Tony Goldsmith staying completely cool during observation duty and even [[DeadpanSnarker snarking down the telephone line]] whenever he could be heard over the mortar shells exploding all around him. [[BadassBookworm In his civilian life he was a promising young academic who had translated Flaubert's Sentimental Education.]] |
| 5 | ** Sergeant Mick Ryan aiming a 7.2" inch howitzer with pinpoint accuracy (during a beach-head battle where they had no forward observers) by sticking his head in the breech, looking down the barrel at the target and then wiggling it a bit - possibly the largest-calibre example of GunFu that will ''ever be recorded''. |
