bite your thong there buster, sheep were kept around the RAF fields to keep the grass short so they allied planes could land and take off. they endured daily bombing by the german planes with no cover whatsoever and if they got killed, they were served at the next day's meal. they actually saw more combat than some of the planes/gv's we have here.

I guess that's what happened to all the sheep we had.
