The short story is that the Germans invented a helicopter which was an excellent way of moving troops around. So the Army and the Air Force argued for months who gets to use this nice thing ("it moves troops, it's ours! - no, it flies, it's ours!"). This was 1944, so in the end it didn't matter.

I bet some Army dog pulled out the line

"ARMY Air Corps, fuckers. IT'S OUR TOY, AND YOU DON'T GET A SAY IN IT!"

I was talking about the German Army and Air Force (Heer and Luftwaffe). But I guess the dispute sounded pretty much the same on the Axis side.
