:46:06
All right, we learned
that the hard way.
:46:09
Don't waste time saying
we should have known.
:46:11
Question is,
where are the rockets?
:46:13
Where?
:46:16
Sir, if my memory
serves me right,
:46:19
the rocket is
a high-angle fire weapon
:46:22
designed primarily to fire
over mountains and ridges.
:46:26
Therefore, my guess
is that the rockets
:46:28
are located on the reverse
slopes of the hill.
:46:30
Sergeant Dickerman,
for your private information,
:46:33
I'm well aware of what
the rocket is designed for.
:46:42
For hours we've been pounding
those reverse slopes
:46:44
with everything we've got.
:46:46
So far we haven't
touched them.
:46:48
Why? Where are they?!
:46:50
Does the colonel
have a theory?
:46:55
I sent out a patrol
instructed to take prisoners.
:46:59
They killed Nips
and no prisoners.
:47:01
When are these men
going to understand
:47:03
the importance
of liveJaps?
:47:04
You can't teach men
to hate and kill, Colonel,
:47:07
then suddenly
teach them not to kill.
:47:08
We teach them
to follow orders.
:47:10
Colonel, may I suggest
:47:11
that with the right kind
of indoctrination--
:47:13
Sergeant Dickerman,
you're what's known
:47:14
as a combat
correspondent.
:47:17
Yes, sir.
:47:19
And since this is
your first combat,
:47:20
I suggest you
correspond.
:47:22
Don't worry yourself
about things
:47:23
that don't concern you.
:47:24
Sir, I'm concerned
about everything.
:47:26
This war is as much
mine as yours.
:47:30
We did get one Nip,
Colonel.
:47:31
Charlie company found him
:47:32
wandering around
about an hour ago.
:47:33
What's the scoop on him?
:47:34
I passed the word on
to regiment, sir,
:47:36
and they said for us
to work him over.
:47:38
SergeantJohnson's outside
questioning him now.
:47:40
See what he's found out.
:47:51
Now, rockets
or no rockets,
:47:52
we've been ordered
to secure these hills.
:47:55
It's 025 5 now.
:47:58
We jump off at 1 200.
