A RAF pilot lay in a hospital bed suffering from wounds having been shot down over Germany. He began to suffer from gangrene on his arms and legs and the German Luftwaffe doctors were about to amputate. The brave pilot had a request of his captors.
"Doctor, when you take my leg arm, would you have it dropped over Britain?", he asked.
"Ja, vee could do zis for you.", came the German officer's reply. And they did.
After a short time, the operation had to be peformed one of his legs. And again he made the same request.
"Doctor, you were so kind last time, could you have my leg dropped over Britain?" he asked weakly.
"Ja, vee could do zis.", came the reply.
Unfortunately, a little while later it became necessary to take the RAF pilot's other leg. This time a Gestapo officer was present when the patient again made his request.
"Doctor, would have have this leg dropped over Britain like my arm and other leg?", he asked.
This time the Gestapo officer jumped in and said,
"Nein, zis vee cannot do!"
The stunted RAF pilot asked meakly, "But why?"
"Vee zink you are trying to escape!", came the reply. ;D
