Character Bio:

Louis is a tail gunner on his friend francs airplane. He believes that the French are the most noble fighting force in the world, even when they retreat from danger.

Franc thinks that they are on a noble mission, and would gladly give his life for the good of his country. He would even crash his plane into German troops. He laughs at the pain the gas he is dropping is causing Germans on the ground. He longs for the military might of the Napoleonic era, and what it must have been like to "run the world". He believes the infantry are vital if France is to win, but he looks down on them as "dirty pigs" (he is from a noble family). He hates Louis, but he acknowledges the fact that he is essential.

One thing I am concerned about is the evolution of your characters. Your ability to create comedic situations is unquestionable, however I am unclear how you are planning to accomplish the other goals of your scene. Let's see how you progress tonight and meet tomorrow. Do have fun, but you want to educate and inform your audience about aspects of WWI that are factually accurate. More importantly, your characters must show their inherent humanity. They should have a conflict that reaches a climax and is resolved to some extent at the end of your scene.
