Have to agree with Drak, this was really well-done. I loved pretty much every scene in this chapter.

Gryph unpacking: "Oh, wait, this one's Trude's." :)

Perrine's concession speech, and the whole gesture: Gorgeous. Absolutely lovely.
And how very, very French.

Mio & Minna: Can I join that round of applause?

I get the feeling we won't be seeing the last of Skorzeny.

(It's amusing, he just got a mention in a StrikeWitchesQuest chapter I was reading. By '89 he's considered something of a hero, the father of modern special operations forces....)
