Nancy WakeI've got one thing to say: I killed a lot of germans, and I'm only sorry I didn't kill more.
About This Quote
The term "germans" is a reference to germ warfare and the World War II. During the war, German pilots dropped bombs filled with bacteria on London. These bombs were nicknamed "gernan bombs." The British response was to spray London's subway lines with an aerosol of anthrax spores that killed hundreds of people. This quote by an American bomber pilot is an example of how that war was fought.
