My little toe is killing me.

Ain't bad enough.

We got to go chasing clouds when they're in front of us.

Slow day comes along, we got to go out looking for them.

How did it go?

Well, we marked a couple of artillery positions, but it's pretty quiet.

You think the boys are up to another little hike?

Lieutenant, we just got back from recon just this minute.

We must have walked 20 miles all right today.

Right, Lieutenant?

At least.

What's the matter, Kirby? Too tired?

Lieutenant, I ain't never been one to complain, but I'm just about a complete

physical wreck.

I gotta tell you that you wouldn't believe.

Where do we go, Lieutenant?

Boygon.

Boygon? Well, that's deserted, isn't it?

Yeah, there's an intelligence officer who caught himself an SS colonel. He

also got a little leg wound, so he's playing it safe. He called in for an

assist.

Just our lousy luck.

Saunders, you know, I think maybe we better let Kirby sit this one out. His

foot's really bothering him.

Let's check your map.

What's this? He beats him on a sore toe and then he gets to stay home.

Never been one to complain, huh?

Let me take a look at that toe. I'll fix it.

Get out of here. Look at my foot, Spencer. Look at my foot.

Go on.

Get away from my foot.

Go on.

That's all I saw, Lieutenant.

What's this become of Kirby today?

He has two officers. His name is Eddie Kopachek.

He's engaged to Kirby's sister.

Kirby's been pestering me for the past month to locate him ever since he found

out he was over here.

Little John.

Doc.

Sergeant, look.

It's really in bad shape. You saw for yourself coming in here. I could barely

even put my weight on it.

Well, you better sit this one out, Kirby. Take care of it.

Oh, Lieutenant, what did you say the name of that officer was?

Oh.

Kopachek. Eddie Kopachek.

He's waiting for you in the mayor's office.

Letty Kopachek, huh?

Okay, let's go.

Kopachek? Hey, Lieutenant.

Hey, hey, you guys wait for me.

Oh, Kirby, I hope your toe feels better.

Oh, hey, thanks, Lieutenant.

Sarge, I just want to see the look on Letty's face when he sees me.

I remember when we first moved on the block, we must have both been about

eight years old then.

I was kidding him about a funny-looking pair of knickers he had on or something.

He hauled off and let me have one. I don't think I'm ever going to forget.

We've been good friends ever since.

The last time I saw him was the night before he went to OCS.

He came in the house and he asked my sister Ruthie to marry him.

I tell you, we really tied one on that night.

Hey.

Sarge, you don't think Lieutenant Hanley let me have a 48-hour pass when we got

back, do you?

No, uh, we got a lot of catching up to do, Eddie and me.

Yeah, yeah.

I think if you tell it to the lieutenant the same way, he'll buy it.

Hey, thanks, Sarge.

Sarge.

We'll do it outside.

What's the matter?

We'll do it outside. What's the matter, Kate?

Just stay out. Stay out!

Rick Morrow.

And Rick Jason.

I'm going to take off the radio.

The two of you flush out the town.

Doc, try to raise Lieutenant Hanley. Tell him what happened here.

What kind of a... Tie a man's hands behind his back and then beat him to

death.

Let's go, Kirby.

King 2, this is White Rook, over.

Checkmate, King 2, this is White Rook.

King 2, this is White Rook, over.

It's a crazy now.

Good job.

It was underground.

What happened?

I was helping a wounded American officer.

He had a prisoner.

An SS colonel.

His men caught us.

And the colonel interrogated the Americans.

He didn't answer questions.

He beat him to death.

I tried to escape, and the shot rang.

What did he look like?

Big.

Dark.

Where did he go?

Where is he now?

Staff car.

Road to Avignon.

You better let him rest a while, Sergeant.

Got what we need, Sergeant. We know what he looks like and what direction he

took. Let's go.

They could use a Kirby. Can't go after him until we check it out with

Lieutenant Hamlet.

Doc, did you contact him?

No, I couldn't find him.

All right, Kirby, I'll try to make contact.

Roger that.

How's he doing, Doc?

Oh, no change.

Did you find the lieutenant?

Yeah. Are we going after the colonel?

We're going to make a try. Intelligence wants him real bad.

Lieutenant's plane, sir.

Where's Kirby?

I don't know.

I saw him going down the street a while ago.

That way.

He was really moving.

I should have figured he'd try something like this.

He told us that the SS colonel was headed towards Avignon.

You hear on this map, our intelligence shows there are no Germans in Avignon.

I heard the Bosch have a camp one kilometer this side of the town.

That's all I know.

We're going to be moving out of here. Is there a doctor we can take you to?

in my home I Have a phone just north of here if you could bring me there

My wife will get him Cage give duck a hand. Let's go

There's a doctor who lives down the road. She'll go and get him, take her

husband.

Let's move out.

You're a rascal!

Okay.

There are hot men.

I need a mirror camera.

What do you think, Sergeant?

I don't know.

Let's move away from that road as far as we can get.

You came here from Bourgogne.

It would seem a personal vendetta.

I was a prisoner a short while of a Lieutenant Koperczyk.

Luckily, some of my men came to my aid.

And Lieutenant Koperczyk and I found our positions reversed.

You're going to kill me now.

Get my hands on your neck, I'll wring your head off.

Yes, I'm sure you would.

I commend your courage in coming here, soldier.

Of course, it was very foolish.

And now you will tell me everything I want to know about your unit.

me like you did Lady Kopelczyk.

Murder you?

In war, there's no such thing as murder.

Lieutenant Kopelczyk was a very stubborn man.

No one enjoys killing.

Cut me a list in this chair and see.

You take the sentry on the left. I'll take the one on the right.

After that, we get the captain. Little John, go through the back of the tent

and get the colonel.

Remember, we want him alive.

Will you be in it?

Doc, stay put.

Thank you.

Tie him up.

Kirby.

He admitted what he did to Eddie Kopachek. Kirby, hold it.

Cross the back.

Okay, move up. Out.

Come on, move up. Kirby.

That ribbon.

I got that.

The others move out over there. Open up on them. When they spot you, take off

through those woods.

Sarge, what are you going to do?

I'm going to try to take them back this way.

Let's give them a chance if we can keep them off our tail.

Remember, keep a safe distance between you and those Krauts.

All right, don't worry, Sarge. Once we hit those woods, we'll lose them.

Sarge, what if he... Kirby, move out.

All right, let's go.

I'm a forfeited.

I'm out.

Kirby.

What are you doing here? I told you to stay with the others.

I thought that you might need some help with him.

Now, you listen to me. We were sent to bring this man in, and that's just what

we're going to do.

He's been tried for Eddie Kopachek's murder.

Don't worry. He's going to hang Kirby.

Hang?

Don't understand, Sergeant. What are you accusing me of? You already admitted to

me you beat him to death.

Kirby, take it easy.

On my honor as an officer sergeant, I never heard the name of this culprit

before this moment. I never discussed him with this man. Sergeant's trying to

lie his way out of it.

Well, he won't.

There's a witness.

A Frenchman.

Remember?

Oh, yeah.

That's right.

You're gonna hang.

This Frenchman, this witness, what is all this about? You thought you left him

dead, didn't you?

Okay, move.

I tell you, I did nothing, Sergeant.

Then you have nothing to worry about.

That's it. Let's go.

This Frenchman, how badly wounded is he?

What I had in mind is that people in that condition...

Sometimes make mistakes in identification.

You got it right a little, huh, Crow?

Now look, soldier.

I had heard of the Kopachik incident from one of my fellow officers.

And when you accused me of the crime, I admitted it.

Only to work you up to an emotionally irrational state.

It's a common device used during interrogations.

Your own intelligence officers will admit to that.

Keep trying, Crow. It doesn't mean good to hear it.

All right,

let's go.

Ain't the Frenchman going to identify this crop for us?

Let's go.

Sergeant,

his witness, he's dead, isn't he?

He is dead, ain't he?

Oh, for nothing.

He's going to get away with it. He's not going to get away with anything, sir.

I don't think Eddie Kopachek was the only one.

There'll be other witnesses.

Sergeant, I respectfully request that this man be disarmed.

Take him inside. I'll check it out.

You cannot do this.

You cannot.

I cannot.

Well, why is that?

Would it be murder or something like that?

Did you tell me there's no such thing as murder at war?

I'm okay, Sarge.

Get Bruno.

Can you make it out of here?

What's with you, Sergeant?

I'll take off.

Hey, soldier!

Hey, soldier!

Hey, soldier, hold it!

I said turn around.

him kill me, Sergeant.

Don't let that man kill me, Sergeant.

Please, Sergeant.

Sergeant. Sergeant, please.

Don't let him kill me. Sergeant.

Don't.

Sergeant.

Don't let him kill me, Sergeant.

Please. Sergeant.

seem worth killing anymore.

Go get a medic.
