Aaaargh! I knew that.! Smack, smack, smack.

The rest of your description is

Jeez, how did I screw that up?

At least I didn't use the old term for early WW2 German troops that would
land on captured airfields (Air Landing IIRC...)  In those big Ju-352's
(is that number right?) again IIRC. Flying into an enemy airfiled the
parachute guys had just captured in a air version of a LST (Beth, in case
this one is not on your list - Landing Ship Tank aka Large Slow Target.)

Yeah, that sounds like "fun" to me. Better have faith those flyboys in
those shiney Me-109's are watching out for you.  Jon A would have
something to say about the US Air Farce at this point...

Jay, thanks for the correction.

I am so glad nobody else from work is on this list. I'd have to be sick for a
week to avoid the laughter in the halls.

Gracias,
