German trench digging contract company driving into a war zone, setting up orange cones, and saw horse barriers telling everyone that this area is under construction and won't be ready until next Tuesday.

Tractor starts noisily digging into the earth in full view of the British army ....

Someone shoots the tractor .... "Hey! We're working here!!!"

British sniper sheepishly crawls back and gets scolded by everyone.
