:08:07
- But what a babe.
- Yeah?

:08:10
A real straw job, see?
:08:11
- Stacked up like a pair of bricks.
- I know the type.

:08:14
- They take a taxi to cross the street.
- But could she spend the dough.

:08:18
It's about time we saw some action.
:08:20
Speaking for myself...
:08:21
I'd just as soon take it easy
for another 100 years.

:08:24
All right! Stop hounding me, will you?
:08:27
When?
:08:28
- Suppose you get killed?
- So I get killed.

:08:30
- So you're out $2.
- Quit waving your teeth.

:08:33
All right, but I still don't think
this is a way to fight a war.

:08:36
We've been sitting around so much,
we've bunions on our landing gear.

:08:39
You batted your gums so much,
you have bunions on your lip.

:08:42
I don't like your attitude.
If I only had one more...

:08:45
Who's that?
:08:46
Who's what?
:08:47
The guy with Lieutenant Jacobs.
I've never seen him before.

:08:50
He's that newspaper Joe
that just came in yesterday.

:08:53
No kidding? You mean
we're gonna be in the newspapers?

:08:57
Just in case he's gonna take pictures.
:08:59
Why should anybody in his right mind
want a picture of you?

:09:03
What do you mean?
:09:04
- I'm a curiosity.
- You're not kidding.

:09:06
No. I mean on account of I'm on a mission.
:09:09
My old lady expects
me personally to capture Adolf Hitler...

:09:12
and here I am in India.
Doesn't that make me a curiosity?

:09:15
You're just khaki-wacky.
:09:18
Attention!
:09:29
I'll make it short, men.
:09:31
Capt. Nelson will brief you
on the operation in a moment.

:09:34
I just want to say this:
:09:36
Two years ago, when
General Stilwell was run out of Burma...

:09:39
he said among other things,
that we took an awful pasting...

:09:42
and somebody ought to go back in there
and do something about it.

:09:46
We're going.
:09:48
You men will be
the first to go back into Burma.

:09:51
The action you're about to see
is the first step...

:09:53
of an extremely important operation.
:09:56
On the success of your mission,
depends to a large extent...

:09:59
the entire course of the war
in this theater.
