Radar and Flak

I know one, one day time trip over Germany and they had radar, oh that was, radar was, they had the best of radar. And it took flak about twenty seconds to reach their altitude and the pilots used to, every eighteen seconds or so they'd, they'd kick the rudder starboard you know four degrees or port four degrees or down fifty feet you know. Because that radar it could predict right on ya. So one, one trip there I guess our pilot got lazy and he didn't turn port starboard or up or down, right ahead of us, right ahead of us on our, our altitude and course. And they always came up in fours, and there was puff, puff, puff, puff and as soon as that puff our props shoot through the smoke. Puff, the props shoot through the smoke, puff... How we didn't get hit, I don't know, if had a been a hundred yards ahead we'd a been blown to pieces. So somebody was taking care of us, the devil or I don't know but, nobody said a word, nobody said a word because, that was close. But the pilot was too lazy to kick er' because that, there radar then was so accurate they could tell exactly your height exactly your course and your speed. And those eighty-eight cannons, that was a German 88mm, oh they were, a wonderful weapon. Ya, so and they, in fact the German, the Würzburg radar line, after the war in 46' they used that German radar, this is how accurate it was, to measure the distance from the earth to the moon. That was the Würzburg radar they had. So if it could tell the exact distance to the moon from the earth, they could pretty well tell your altitude and your course and your speed.
