Some time ago, I read a book or magazine wherein a medium bomber pilot told why Robert Preston gave him the nickname "The Scourge"… something about said pilot unloading ordnance on a German outhouse when returning from a mission.

“...pilot unloading ordnance on a German outhouse when returning from a mission.”

Too late for the story I’m thinking of, as it was before we were in it. The story goes that the Brit’s bombed something like an outhouse or a barn or something instead of sticking to a “military” target.

Hitler used that as an excuse to bomb civilians in London.

I have no idea if an outhouse was actually bombed, or if Hitler really used it as an excuse. (Or if Hitler was the one that started bombing civilian targets).
