Fake Wooden Bomb Revenge

Text on the meme

During WW2, the Germans built a fake wooden airfield with wooden aircraft, vehicles, and hangars in order to trick the Allies. The RAF, having known of the secret project for months, patiently waited for them to finish and then dropped a single fake wooden bomb on it

What it means

A historical black-and-white image shows people moving a wooden aircraft or propeller mock-up near a wooden airfield, followed by a close-up of a wooden bomb. The joke is that the Germans created a fake wooden airfield to deceive the Allies, but the RAF supposedly responded by dropping an equally fake wooden bomb on it, making the deception absurdly pointless.
