“They went to sea in a Sieve, they did,

In a Sieve they went to sea:

In spite of all their friends could say,

On a winter’s morn, on a stormy day,

In a Sieve they went to sea!”

“Far and few, far and few,

Are the lands where the Jumblies live;

Their heads are green, and their hands are blue,

And they went to sea in a Sieve.”

Stay. Stay. Please.

I have to go.

Please. I’m sorry.

Engländer!

Baumer?

Baumer?

Engländer! Engländer!

D Company! Move out!

You alright, pal?

Where are you from?

He’s probably got the wind up. Well, he’s not one of ours.

He’s bloody soaked.

Fuck it, let’s just pick him up and take him with us.

Have to find the Devons.

What’s he saying? What’s that mate?

The Devons. I have to find the Devons.

We’re the Devons.

You’re the Devons? Yes, Corp.

Why haven’t you gone over?

We’re the second wave. They don’t send us all at once.

Yeah, we’re D Company, we spent the night digging in.

We go last.

Are you alright?

MacKenzie. Where’s Colonel MacKenzie?

He’s down at the line.

Which way? This way.

We’re headed up there now.

Steady on mate! Where you going?
