During the German occupation of France a farmer was captured.
While in the internment camp he got a letter from his wife complaining that she was having difficulties with the farm. She had plenty of seed potatoes but she could not plough the field herself.
He wrote back. "It is all for the best. Leave the fields un-ploughed. That is where the guns are." Four days later two truck-loads of armymen entered the farm and dug up all the field.
The wife wrote to her husband informing him of what had happened and asked him what to do.
He wrote back a brief note: "Now plant the potatoes."
