About 2/3 of the way through the episode LT Barnhill comes across young Francis along the road and offers him a ride. Just then a B-17 flies overhead and Barnhill says to Francis, "that's Lima Mike, good old Lima Mike," referring to the B-17's identification letters. In 1943 it would have been Love Mike. Lima wasn't adopted for the U.S. phonetic alphabet for L until 1956.
