Well put

I chuckled all the way through the drama when they travel to Normandy all dressed up in pink shirt and ties, "armed" with a wartime picture of a VW Schwimmwagen, find the location at the local railway station, ask around in the local cafe and come up with the name of the farmer who took the battle damaged Schwimmwagen off the battlefield. They pay a visit to the farmer, find the battle relic in his barn, find out the farmer does not want to sell (although neither party understands a word of each other), but he is kind enough to offer them some of his home brewed Calvados. All in a days work, eh?!?
