     According to the alleged know-it-alls, it was on one memorable occasion, that he actually managed to toss five bundles in the same dive. There’s been an enormous amount of speculation on how this was achieved. Most argued that he had tied the helm during the dive, to maintain the puny craft on a steady course. With both hands free, he was able to quickly launch the said five bombs: then, faster than a spitting cobra snake, he untied the helm and pulled up on it, scarcely a few meters before crashing and becoming the sixth of the explosions. All the while he shouted heatedly at the enemy troops, as he lavished insults upon bombs).

     What may not be deliberated is the indisputable fact of his expertise in the art of escaping and eluding the enemies’ fire, thus arriving for lunch, though occasionally late. As concerning the matter of the insults, it is fair to say, that he firmly established his supremacy and complete dominion, of the popular jargon and the folkloric dialectics; amalgamated with his relentless capacity to offend, insult, and disparage, he thus inflicted retribution and infected the enemies’ morale. Whereas he’s known to have been incisive, in extremity, he never tainted his diatribes with profanity or vulgarity in any form whatsoever. His was undoubtedly, a gentleman’s attack in all respects.
