UH, THE PEOPLE TELL ME OUR NORTH Koreans

ain't doing so well today.

They keep missing that bridge.

Lieutenant Pryor calling.

Hal.

This is Sam. [snorts]

Easy B just pulled back across the river

as planned. Good. Noisy up there?

And snowy. Reds are smelling everything

in sight except the bridge. I have a

hunch they want to use it themselves.

How about blowing it? You got the

charges wired?

No, but I will by the time you get

division's okay. Check. Calling you

back. Over and out. Right.

They'll look one day, you blow it up the

next. You know, they're stealing that

thing. American steel.

The way the army wastes money. You think

us That's Peters headache to burn.

Johnny.

Tell Bowman to pick up some dynamite and

meet me down by the bridge.

Somebody call for demolition there?

Demolition expert Bowman.

NELSON! SIMON AND BOWMAN ARE OUT THERE,

JOHNNY.

WHERE'S THAT BAZOOKA? HAD to break OUT

SOME NEW AMMO.

OKAY, WE'RE BACK IN BUSINESS.

YES.

PERFECT TIMING, BOSS. DIVISION SAYS

>> CHUCK, FEED THE BOYS AND REST. I'LL GET

THE POOP from Davis. Sure, boss.

Yes, sir, Lieutenant.

Yes, sir, I understand, sir.

Right, sir, I have it.

I have it.

Yes, sir, that minefield was cleaned out

at 1600. You can use that terrain

anytime you want.

Yes, sir, absolutely.

Major, sir.

Yes, sir.

Yes, sir, got you, Colonel Peterson.

Yes, sir, we can put that bridge back in

6 hours if we need it. Ferrying detail?

I'm using Able Company.

Captain Davis' company, that's right,

sir.

Yes, sir, I appreciate its importance.

Correct, sir.

Next thing you know, they'll want to be

Press! Write a whole raft of those

calls.

That bridge of yours did a lot of

things, Lieutenant.

For one, it brought G2 here.

Captain Adams, Lieutenant Pryor.

I

Nobody's sorry, I understand, but your

information has complicated matters.

We've been planning our big offensive

for the area where your bridge was.

Now, the Reds are trying to make us

think they're going to hit through there

themselves.

Sounds as simple as that.

But if they really mean it,

why does every small patrol we've sent

out from here meet absolutely no

resistance until they reach here

and hit a wall of fire?

Reds are hiding something.

And air reconnaissance can't find it.

But if our attack is to begin in 72

hours, we've got to know what it is.

Small patrols can't do it, so

division is sending a company of Greek

infantry on a reconnaissance in force.

And of course, the engineers get to

ferry them.

You're a ball, Hal.

The second platoon takes off at 1900 and

makes contact with the first Greek

brigade, which has just been moved in

here. Now then, when you

>> the second platoon?

Yes, what about it? Well, nothing. It's

just that

Well, I don't think my men will jump

through any hoops when they find out

they have to be with the Greeks.

Nobody expects them to jump through

hoops, Jorgenson.

All you have to do is paddle Greeks

across, wait for them, and bring them

back. The brass thinks it's right down

their alley. They're guerrilla fighters.

You might learn something from them. I

don't have anything against them, sir.

It's just that well, It's okay with you,

Hal.

I'll be glad to switch with Jorgenson.

I'm not asking anybody to switch. Take

it easy. Take it easy. I'm asking.

Some of my closest friends are Greeks,

including my father.

You know that. Sure, I know it, Sam, but

we figured you were due for a rest after

what you had today. We can rest when we

get back.

Who knows? I might meet a couple of my

cousins.

Okay, Sam, it's yours.

Anything else, Major? No.

That's it.

Oh, Pryor.

Stick around a minute, will you?

Have yourself a cup of coffee and pour

one for me.

Somebody flavored it with a piece of old

rubber, but it's hot.

Sit down, Pryor.

Uh, where is that sugar?

Every time we retake this area, I can't

find the sugar.

I've been in and out of this hut so many

times, I feel like a yo-yo.

Thanks.

>> [sighs]

>> I asked you to stay, Pryor, because

Jorgenson's attitude bothers me.

I'm afraid a lot of men share it. Maybe

not as many as you think, sir.

Or more?

You ever know of any troops, I don't

care what nationality, who like to fight

with foreigners, especially under

foreign command?

You told me about my men, sir.

We've been together a long time.

I know them, every one of them, and they

know me.

They even know my name used to be

Priobolos.

Okay, Pryor.

Giving personal advice in the army is as

bad as volunteering. We're both crazy.

Good luck.

Thanks.

How'd it go? Get the gang together, will

you?

First platoon!

Over here.

All right.

You guys have been yammering that this

is a UN war, where are our allies?

Well, tonight you're going to get a

chance to see some.

Ferrying detail with the first Greek

brigade.

While detached, we'll be under Greek

command. Any different from the

commander we GOT NOW, SIR?

>> [laughter]

>> YOU TRYING TO SCARE US, LIEUTENANT?

One more thing.

I uh

volunteered you guys for this.

I kind of figured that

you might like to meet some original

Greeks instead of a carbon copy like me.

Too bad we're only ferrying them. I'd

like to see them in action.

Now.

Anybody want to stay at home?

I take your vote of confidence in the

spirit it's given.

They're as tough as the Turks, boys. I

hate them Turks as fierce.

>> [laughter]

>> I think you'll find them plenty tough.

They've been gorilla fighting since

Socrates was a pup.

As a matter of fact, their rating is

pretty fantastic.

Okay, finish with chow. We shove off

1900.

the welcoming committee.

>> Lieutenant Priakos, 32nd engineer.

Captain Hadjis. Captain. Lieutenant

Nikias. Lieutenant. Lieutenant.

Corporal Marakis to interpret when

necessary. Corporal.

Graduate of American school in Athens. I

salute you, Americans, my friends.

Yassas.

MAY I LEAVE THIS?

KEEP IT CLEAN, BOSS.

>> [laughter]

>> FRYER. FRYER. I MEAN, UH

PRYOR.

THE captain wants us to know that he and

his men are looking forward to tonight's

mission.

Well, the captain's lucky. We never look

forward to anything but getting back

from a mission. I never saw any of our

guys dance before in action.

Palamas, the Greek poet, says about

people that they walk through history

dancing.

It is also said of them that they

sometimes like to fight.

Uh the colonel believes that a touch of

brandy before battle quickens a man's

blood. He waits to greet you and your

officers.

Brandy, huh? I told you they were

wonderful people.

He just like the brandy coffee he used

to make.

And now,

good luck. Thank you, Captain.

Thank you, sir.

I thought we came here for a river

crossing. When are these birds going to

get around to that?

Now, Sergeant, we can see what these

birds have to say about our river

crossing. I'm sorry, sir. I forgot you

parlay the language. Today, the whole

world speaks your language.

I have worked out the details.

You will be in charge of the river

operation.

When we reach a point somewhere along

this shore,

you will choose the most likely beach

for a landing.

Clear? I know the area very well,

Captain. Go ahead. We spent a lifetime

in there a few days ago.

Once we have landed, I will take over.

We will maintain absolute radio silence.

Except to transmit whatever information

we learn behind their curtain of fire.

Clear? Clear.

I do not anticipate any difficulty. You

will remain a short distance inland. I

will proceed to my objective, force a

breach, feast my eyes on whatever it is

the enemy is concealing, and return.

Then you should be back by dawn. Or

before.

Suppose I run into trouble forcing a

breach. What about us?

Captain said if he does not return to

the river within a reasonable amount of

time, to leave him some boats and get

out.

We'll be ready for you, Captain, at the

river in 45 minutes. Now, with your

permission.

Yeah. They don't understand them, that's

all.

They've never been licked, at least by

any country their own size.

The ancient Greek warriors were pretty

hot stuff.

And I don't hesitate to remind you of

it, do they? My pops like that. He bowls

two consecutive strikes and you'd think

he invented the game.

Hey, Taylor. Take a look.

Would my wife go for this? How much do

you want for it?

Good American money.

He said he'd give it to you,

but it's bad luck unless he gets

something for it.

He, uh,

only wants a penny.

Thanks, fathead.

Okay.

Shrapnel holes when the truck hit that

land mine.

How many boats were on that truck? Four.

We mixed them with the others when we

shifted the load. If they all have holes

like these, it shouldn't be any trouble

to pick them up.

Hey, boss.

Here's another one.

Double-check every boat. Leave the deads

here and we'll get along with what we

have. Snap it up.

>> Okay, boss.

No luck, boss. All four boats cut to

pieces.

Well, at least 14 boats to ferry almost

200 men across. Great.

Hey, fellas.

Get it, will you?

Let us pray to the Lord

that he fight on our side,

vanquish our foes and the powers of

forces.

God have mercy.

Let us pray to the Lord for the

fertility of the fruit-bearing soil,

for the time of the peace to come.

God have mercy.

Look, Sam.

We're almost loaded already with our

troops.

Okay, then. Pull up the machine guns and

the mortars. We'll take only what we can

hand carry. We're going to be awfully

naked, sir.

Take one light machine gun. Stash the

rest. But you have no need to fear, my

friends. You're under Greek protection.

You heard the man.

Leave a couple of guards with it and

let's get started.

Take the bazookas, mortars, and machine

guns off.

Where are you going with that?

Well, Sam said everything you could hand

carry. Heard him myself. He didn't mean

explosives. Get rid of it.

As Suzy says, always wear your to make

sure it doesn't rain.

Unless there's some more ceremonies boss

we got to shove off.

Okay.

We'll dig in here.

Have your men dig in. Perimeter defense.

Good luck.

Wish you were going with you. You will

be behind us. That is even better.

Any damage in here?

Corporal.

Find yourself a place in the band. Yes,

sir.

Now this is the way to fight a war.

All those Greeks armed to the teeth

between us and the reds.

You know, Smitty.

I bet those Greeks can really fight.

I bet they're up there right now giving

those reds a hard time.

>> [whistles]

>> Ah, knock it off Bowman.

You know, Smitty.

The Greeks used to wear skirts in the

battle, too. Somebody's out there.

Get ready. Pass the word. Pass the word.

>> [screaming]

>> How bad?

Couple wounded but they'll be all right.

One dead.

Who?

Hedley.

Smitty.

Take somebody with you and scout the

woods. I want to know what's going on.

Wait a minute.

You better take Morakis with you in case

you need an interpreter. You bet, boss.

Scouting party. Right.

Morakis scouting party.

I don't understand.

Something's wrong.

Maybe we should go back. You better read

my mind.

Alien, you want to go on back? Tell

Smitty I want to see him at the quick

for a minute. Yeah, but you go on. You

two Morakis. Yes.

Smitty.

What goes? Looks like we're in a spot.

The only Greeks we saw had their hands

up in the air.

Where's Smitty? He stayed out there.

Armed to the teeth, huh? Oh, I knew it

all the time. Those Greeks are no lousy

good.

Okay, so we got allies.

I'll tell you what I'm going to do.

Nobody dies. Absolutely nobody. The

Greeks are taking over the war. All we

got to do is row and down the river,

bring him back. That's all, pals.

Everybody happy? Taylor, Morakis, over

here.

Where's Smitty? He's still looking

around out there.

How many Greeks did you see? Oh, about a

dozen.

They all had their hands up.

No bodies, no sign of a fight? There

might have been one up ahead of us.

That's why Smitty stayed out. Only I

don't think so. The firing was too

light.

Let's get out of here.

Don't forget Captain Harris we could use

our own discretion.

How about it?

If we had our heavier weapons, Sam. But

this way it only makes sense to get out.

You men are getting out, all right. But

it's going to be a round trip. Johnson,

you go across and pick up all the heavy

stuff and bring it back here fast. If

they're in any trouble, we're going in

give them support. Chuck, you, Stoney,

and Bowman stay here with me. The rest

of the platoon, the wounded, they'll go

with you.

Once you get across, the wounded can

walk back. Get started.

Rakis,

stick around. I might need you. Yes,

sir.

Okay, Sam.

That's the way you want it, that's the

way it's going to be.

On your feet, we're moving out.

Bowman,

you and Stoney stay here.

I'll be light, sir.

Our platoon should be back any minute.

They should have been back by now.

Let's get back to work.

A whole platoon, Sam.

A whole Aussie platoon.

Is Captain Harris with them?

Just 23 in this group, sir. They were

cut off when they were jumped by the

enemy. They've not seen their captain.

It was bad, Lieutenant.

We had to fight very hard to get

through.

Came back here hoping to find everybody.

I'm very sorry about this.

Are you?

This gun hasn't been fired.

What did you fight with, Lieutenant?

Slingshots?

But there's no blood on it, my fine

Greek countryman.

Like this one, for instance.

Ain't that Johnson's scarf?

He's the joker that gave it to Johnson

in the first place.

You don't suppose he knew all along that

Johnny'd get killed and he'd get it

back.

It's all taken care of.

Now, there's the last of it. The Reds

got the rest.

So our guys never knew what hit them.

They knew.

And they fought.

And I got them into it.

Suppose we'd ferried Americans across

the river, Sam, and they'd gotten into

trouble. You'd want our boys to support

them, now, wouldn't you?

Wouldn't you, Sam?

They'd have been our boys, they wouldn't

have fouled out.

We shouldn't have been here in the first

place.

It's a cinch not what I come here for.

Probably to make sure none of us are

left.

Lossing and Chuck, it's hard to take

care of that tank if you want. It would

give me the greatest of pleasure,

Lieutenant. That's great. We can handle

it easy alone. Alone?

Nobody saw me surrender.

Of course, I'm only part Greek.

You do not have to see us if we keep out

of sight. If you should fail to destroy

it, Lieutenant Pryor,

it won't fail to find the rest of us.

Okay, boys.

Let's shove off.

You can help by keeping out of sight.

Let's put them out.

>> Now, these students took the easy way.

Coming up on the blind spot. We could

have picked those guys off as they came

out of the hatch. Waste all that ammo?

But, this is Vargas. This is Vargas.

What did you say your men are going?

The boats. Of course. Call them back.

Come with me, Tista.

We won't need the boats. Not yet. We're

going inland.

Bring up that ammunition we left back

there.

We were sent in here, Lieutenant, to

find out what the Reds are hiding. And

that's what we're going to do. That is

Captain Harris's job.

>> Makes sense, Lieutenant. From what I've

seen, it's 20 to 1 that Harris is either

dead or captured. You are proposing that

a handful of us do what a company could

not do.

All right, Lieutenant. Paddle back or

swim. I hope you don't run into any Reds

on the way. And if we should?

Read it.

What's it say on the belt?

Made in Wilmington Arsenal. U.S.A.

We do it your way, or we do not get

enough ammunition. Is that it?

As you might say,

you have the ball in the bat. And the

player don't ever forget that.

Add up the men here in Korea, and we're

10 to 1 to the rest of you.

I congratulate you upon the ease with

which you solved the problem of command.

The men up the stuff, and let's go.

You wait here, Chuck.

Let's go see what's got them so excited.

What the military?

Why is that Baker company hanging on?

Sure. That's Pete Dawson's bulldozer.

You see that Confederate flag?

Baker had time to boogie, too.

Chuck,

go get the platoon.

Get the Greeks here, and tell them to be

quiet coming up.

Not to worry about ammo anymore,

Lieutenant.

These crates are full of it.

We're back in business.

I see him done.

You think it's too much of a risk?

They could do what?

You didn't command.

I would make it a tent.

I can send a couple of my men to shoot

it from each side. I'm happy with it.

And your men stay here.

You hear a grenade go off, come on fast.

We'll surprise them.

I have a blue monkey.

>> [screaming]

>> And New Zealanders part of our lost

patrols.

Chuck,

get Stoney and Bowman around these guys.

I want to talk to them.

Did they get them all together? Sam

wants to talk to them.

Hey, you guys always clean up so fast?

Always. It's a national characteristic.

Especially our bayonets, Sergeant.

And you use them pretty good, too.

The words cannot say how pleased we are

that you think we are worthy.

Quite an interpreter, Malakis, huh?

He can explain even what has been

unspoken.

It would be more difficult to explain

for what purpose. Two of my men are

dead,

and eight wounded badly.

Those crates are loaded with ammunition,

and we need it.

But, look out for booby traps.

If you're in doubt of anything at all,

call an engineer.

Translate that to them.

Bowman, you come with me, and we'll

check the hut.

We'll move on in a couple of hours. What

about my wounded?

We'll hide them in the woods with the

medic. When we find what we're after,

we'll come back for them.

Lieutenant, you do not seem to realize

that we are sitting in the middle of the

Red force,

and that you are demanding that we move

farther and farther away from safety. In

my book, Lieutenant, that's a pretty

good definition of our job.

Heroism like yours is most inspiring.

Perhaps after all I have much to learn

under your command.

Perhaps.

Anything wrong here?

Watch yourself.

You think that's

booby-trapped?

Naturally. Okay.

I won't let a little thing like a booby

trap stand in the way of your smoking.

Move back.

I don't want to bother you, Lieutenant.

It's okay. I can handle it.

I'm no addict, my friend.

If it is booby-trapped, I can do without

it.

I can do without a lot of things.

Better move back.

See?

It wasn't trapped after all.

Corporal,

leave us alone.

You had to neutralize it, didn't you?

Come again? You had to perform in front

of your corporal, just as in a bigger

way you've been performing all along.

Performing?

Dropping a grenade down the hatch of a

tank, knocking out a machine gun alone,

attacking this place.

Hardly calculated risks, private. But

very necessary risks, Lieutenant.

You cannot accept what happened to your

platoon for what it is.

A tragic but unavoidable accident of

war.

What has my platoon got to do with this?

As a Greek American, you blame its loss

on us and on yourself because you

believed in us. Now, because of your

Greek blood, you must prove to everybody

that you are the bravest man in the

world.

Maybe you expect me to bust out with the

Greek national anthem. I expect nothing.

The point is that you did not really

believe in us. And as long as you

mistrust the people you command, you

should not be in command.

Therefore, Lieutenant,

if only on the basis that you are four

Americans to my 21 Greeks, I will take

command.

Don't make book on it, Lieutenant.

Everything all right?

Okay, except I found out something your

pop should have told you.

The reason those veins were clean, these

guys always clean up after a fight.

Right after a fight.

We had them all wrong.

Hey, boss.

This guy's giving us an earful, boss.

After his patrol was bushwhacked, he and

his buddy got away long enough to take a

good look behind that curtain.

They were grabbed coming back. Big

concentration of tanks and ground

troops, sir. It's an amazing

concealment.

Back there, about 3 miles.

Waiting to draw in our attack and smash

our right flank.

Perhaps our taking this place had some

point after all, Lieutenant.

But not the one you intended.

What can I get you, Lieutenant?

You understand the importance of this

information reaching headquarters before

the attack. Why, yes, Lieutenant. Good.

Take another man.

You can choose him yourself.

I do not wish to see your face again if

you fail. Yes, Lieutenant. Dimitri! Halt

it.

You will proceed to the boats. Sergeant,

can you construct

litters for the wounded? Sure, but

carrying litters will never make it. How

about the bulldozer? She runs.

We hook the trailer onto the back end

and put the wounded in the rumble seat.

Hey, how about that, boss?

Sure, she's noisy, but with all the

other vehicles around, maybe they think

it's one of theirs. Kind of a Trojan

horse, huh?

Why not?

Get to work on it right away.

That's an order.

I said that's an order, Sergeant.

You heard him.

Get a lot of mileage out of here.

Lieutenant Akia is ready, sir.

Lieutenant Akia is ready, sir.

How come all of a sudden he takes over?

You running the show, private Stone?

Now, listen. Sam knows what he's doing.

Why should he carry the load for the

whole United Nations? Somebody appoint

him high commissioner or something?

Yeah, but who appointed Akia? Horos from

our red prison camp?

Diko!

Soldier,

nobody appointed anybody anything. We

are alive.

Whether you approve or not.

The book hasn't been written about who's

supposed to run an outfit like this.

I approve the Lieutenant taking over.

At least until a captain shows up.

Halt it.

Are you ready, Sergeant? Whenever you

are, sir.

Vati, menu.

I'm going to get on with this.

Lokia!

What's he telling them?

He feels sorry for us.

Said we shouldn't mind Akia.

Akia comes from the mountain country

where people have

big spleens and drink bitter wine.

Who put their master silence? And me, I

got five of these Americans.

Said we also shouldn't mind how the rest

of his outfit feels towards us. He knows

that Americans are fine men.

Don't let them blow it out of

proportion.

Vati!

When is the maneuver going to be?

He told Akia to get out of here. Go

ahead.

>> We must go back up. We can't,

Lieutenant. This road is too narrow to

turn this thing around.

We can set up a roadblock. It'll give us

time to get the wounded out.

They would contact troops above us,

Paredes, Sergeant. More would descend

upon us.

Headquarters will probably tell us to

throw rocks at it. Bowman.

Never.

Do you see what I see?

Yeah.

Around that turn.

Maybe pause, maybe.

How many six-pounders you got?

Only two, but it's worth a try.

Got a fire you filling in.

What's up? Who gas? Better than throwing

rocks.

Bowman, tell the Lieutenant.

Okay, boss.

An excellent idea. I would not have

thought of it. Of course, I have never

doubted that your Lieutenant is a

military genius.

What is it, Americanos?

Uh, Sergeant.

What did he call it?

Who gas? Yeah, it's crazy gas,

Lieutenant. We used it a lot on the

Burma Road. It was a favorite of the

French. It's a great gag when it works.

They should make the last turn below.

Would you hear a Mexican in this? Okay,

that's good. You ready, Buster?

Fire in the hole and no fools.

Let's go.

That smoke would be deceiving, Sergeant.

They can bulldoze it down there.

We will not be a secret much longer.

To try to reach the river with the

bulldozer would be suicidal now.

And I cannot leave the wounded.

I'm afraid we have come to the end of

the journey.

Soon it will be dark. Then I will ask

Nikos to move us up to that ridge.

We will fight it out there. For how

long?

By morning, that hill will be crawling

with reds.

And how about getting our information

back?

I have decided to send you and your men.

Why us?

Why not send some of your own men?

I find that I am forbidden to deny them

the privilege of staying with their

comrades.

Well, I'm not asking you to save

yourself. It will not be easy to get

through.

First, you will have to evade the enemy,

then you will have to cross the river,

all by 0800 when our offensive begins.

But, perhaps you engineers

can do what mere Greek soldiers cannot.

Are you asking me to perform a miracle?

How you achieve it is up to you.

Thanks.

Tell Nikos to watch that second gear. It

slips.

What are they doing? Putting in a dam?

Underwater bridge. They didn't build

that overnight.

That chance our recon had of spotting

anything.

Sam, the tanks those New Zealanders

talked about.

They bring the tanks down to here.

And they move them across the bridge

right into the general's bed.

Somebody ought to tell him in a hurry.

Maybe you brought a carrier pigeon with

a bulletproof vest.

We did bring boats.

Looks like somebody's got to get wet.

Yeah, all some of them. got to do is to

swim the river with the red sticking

potshots at him. And if he makes it,

he's got a little cross-country run

before breakfast.

You got a better idea, Sergeant?

With the four of us swimming,

one might get there in time.

Well, whatever you say, boss.

Who says he can't send four medals home?

I'll take mine now.

They report that a bunch of surrendered.

They say that Captain Haros

asked the volunteers to surrender.

While the reds were kept busy with them,

Captain Haros slipped through the main

bunch.

They had orders to report back here in

case they escaped.

They say.

Then let's skip the swim. With Haros'

radio, we're sure to get through to

division. Why not a couple of weeks from

now if he shows up alive? We got through

on the bulldozers, didn't we? Nobody can

go as slow as that. Haros will be here

in a minute now.

>> It'll be light soon, then we won't have

a chance. If we're going, let's go.

Okay, let's strip.

We'll wait.

You guys look as if you didn't expect to

see me again. And not just you. Where's

the rest of the platoon? Dead.

I said, where's the rest of the platoon?

Dead.

Captain Haros.

I heard, Lieutenant. I wish I could do

something. I'm very sorry.

The reds slashed our boats. I've got to

use your radio.

Can you get division? No, our

frequency's set for the Greek Brigade.

That'll do. Until now, we have been too

far away even for that. Perhaps from

here.

We have seen much, Lieutenant. Tank,

troops, rocket material moving on

I know how they're going to use it.

Contact from your patrol.

Coordinates with that bridge.

Right there, sir.

Beautiful, Major. They come across and

smack us right here.

With our armor on the wrong flank, we're

mousetrapped right out of the stadium.

Only they forgot a bridge can go two

ways. Tell the general I've got to see

him at once, Sergeant. Get me air

rescue.

Get through to the major and tell him to

find some high spot and stay there. Go

and scour.

Tell him we'll get him out.

>> Right, sir.

Now we had better be moving what is left

of our platoon.

The Greeks will be happy to see us, hey

Lieutenant?

I fear we have brought the enemy with

us, but help is on the way. The

lieutenant has arranged it so. Oh, but I

thought you were going to

>> We got lucky at the beachhead. Captain

Haros arrived with the radio. Then you

did not have to perform

Depends on how you mean it, Lieutenant.

The book hasn't been written about this

kind of an outfit, remember?

Sometimes guys like me have to see

things in print.

Large print.

HEY, SAM! SAM!

HERE THEY COME!

HERE THEY COME!

HEY, HELICOPTER!

HEY, HELICOPTER!

HELICOPTER!

HELICOPTER!

HELICOPTER!

WE GOT NEARLY EVERY EIGHTH LEADER IN

Coriel for you.

Yeah!

YEAH!

>> LAST

ONE ON THE DOUBLE.

HOW MANY MEN HAVE YOU GOT? 10.

MY CAPACITY IS EIGHT. I'LL TAKE YOU ALL.
