• Countess Mary Lindell : I don't know if you realize what it's like - bailing out in a foreign country, occupied by the enemy, not knowing anything, and suddenly being handed over to someone and thinking, "Oh, God, it's a woman! This is dreadful, isn't it?". Yet suddenly they felt safe. I love the whole lot of them. They were too sweet - too ridiculous, most of them. And I never even knew their names.

• Col. Miles Grant, Leggat's CO : You're quite the heroine around here. James never tires of telling how you knocked him flat in that Cafe.
