Sept 25th, 2016: Judas Goats

Diaphone Jim, if a farmboy calls something a Judas goat, that thing is not perceived in a happy or friendly light, so at least some of the flight and ground crews weren't happy about the job these planes did. I've been around enough farms, boys, and goats to have picked up a few details...

Because the odds of not coming back were pretty high. Those hundreds of crews all knew that, but everybody was in the same boat... except the Assembly ships.
I'm sure the troops in the trenches felt the same way about the officer who yelled, "everybody over the top", and stayed in the trench.
