Quote from Rose in If at Last You Do Succeed
Rose: That's a St. Olaf war bond. Charlie bought us those in '42. I didn't realize I still had those. Blanche: Wait a minute. Are you telling me that St. Olaf printed its own war bonds? Rose: Yes. Oh, we were very patriotic. In late '42, we wanted to fund the development of a top-secret weapon that we were sure would end the war. Attack cows. Blanche: Take me now, Lord. Rose: No one expects trouble from a cow. The plan was, we would drop these highly trained killer cows behind the enemy lines. It wasn't till they were airborne that we realized a cow can't pull a rip cord. Well, the project wasn't a total failure. If there's one thing the Germans hate, it's a mess.
