[WWI] Flyboys: Gotha Bomber Sequence

[Michael Kendix]

John makes an interesting point.  Literature often mixes things up to make 
it more interesting.  The MASH movie had a lot of 1960s feel with the 
haircuts and smoking dope during the football game.

Even Chaucer, combined behaviors and architypes from different historical 
periods to create a story.  In the Knight's Tale Arcite and Palamon are 
supposed to be Greeks but the behavior is drawn from the knightly code of 
chivalry in England during the Middle Ages.
