1. Completing their mission by e.g. abandoning the bombers they were supposed to escort? 2. You don't see anything perverse in that an ideology based on abolishing money altogether actually resorted to capitalist-bourgeoisie methods of incentive?

PzD was interdicted by VVS with very negative impact for whole german strategy. |
