Major Crowe, sir.
:52:15
- Jim? How you doing?
- "It's tough going, Dave".

:52:19
I've committed every man.
We're dug in and staying.

:52:22
Good. I've been getting reports all day
that the Nips are slipping in to your front.

:52:29
If it's "banzai" tonight,
target area 2-41 is a hot spot.

:52:36
What outfit have you got there?
:52:40
Joyce and Stryker.
:52:43
Pass the word they gotta dig in
and stay put.

:52:47
No noise or movement.
:52:49
Don't risk anybody unless you have to.
Hold on until we get more men there.

:53:00
Yes, sir.
:53:02
Major Crowe says the Nips have been
filtering into these tank traps.

:53:06
Disperse your squad along this section.
:53:09
Tell your men there's to be no smoking,
no moving or unnecessary talking.

:53:14
If they find out how thin we are,
they can get to the beach.

:53:19
That's a platoon area. All I got's
a beat-up squad, short three men.

:53:24
- Couldn't you...?
- Can I give you three men?

:53:27
The battalion can't give the whole
company three replacements.

:53:32
Your squad is covering
the hottest spot in the line.

:53:36
If it's an attack tonight they'll strike you
first. They want to know our disposition.

:53:41
I repeat, your men are not to move.
:53:44
- Aye, aye, sir.
- Stryker, we're going to hold this line.

:53:50
- Aye, aye, sir.
- Good luck.
