DURING A night bombing raid in the summer of 1940, a German Luftwaffe Junker Ju88 bomber seeks its way to a target over a blacked-out British landscape. The navigator doesn't rely on the stars to guide the plane but instead follows a radio beam transmitted from occupied France. When the plane reaches its target, he will hear another signal from a second beam transmitted on a different vector. The point of intersection is where the bombs are released. The navigator doesn't realize it but the second signal he receives is a hack coming from a British transmitter. He releases the bomb load too early; the payload falls harmlessly in the countryside.
