The Schnellboot came alongside.
With the beer crate on his head, Bernard leapt onto the U-123 deck.
Keller had never seen such a display of agility.
Bernard came to attention and saluted. "Got the beer as ordered. Herr Kaleun."
"Is that what you are wearing on your head?" Balz asked.
"Yes, Herr Kaleun.
"Very well. Take the beer below, get into your banana suit and report to Cookie to hang you."
"What's a banana suit?" Keller asked.
Balz tilted his head to one side as if inspecting an idiot. If you don't know, go to the galley and watch."
In the galley, Cookie put aside skillet in which he was sautéing mushrooms and helped Bernard get into a bag that made him look like a giant banana.
Cookie tied a line and hoisted Bernard up in between a couple of real banana bunches. "There. He is secured, Herr Leutnant." Cookie added wine to the skillet and went back to cooking. The aroma was like nothing he had smelled in the navy and his stomach began to growl with hunger.
The boat was already beyond the minefield when Keller returned to the Bridge. "Herr Kaleun, Bernard is secured."
"Very, well. This way I don't have to see the sod and when I walk by, I can pretend it's nothing worse than a farthing banana."
