: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.
:48:00
That's exactly 9 hours
and 5 minutes from now.

:48:02
Any comments?
:48:05
If we try to take
those hills, Colonel,

:48:07
the whole battalion
will be wiped out.

:48:09
Unless we find a way to
wipe out the rockets first.

:48:12
The general made this
our baby,

:48:14
and we're gonna see
that it's well-diapered,

:48:15
or you--
:48:16
He'll be right in,
sir.

:48:23
Johnson.
:48:25
Yes, sir.
:48:32
Well, any resemblance
of your present attire

:48:35
to a marine uniform is--
:48:38
You're impossible!
:48:40
Yes, sir.
:48:41
The colonel knows
it's a mistake

:48:42
to let war interfere
with one's personal comfort.

:48:44
Get rid of that
cigarette holder.

:48:46
The colonel knows it's
the only way I enjoy smoking.

:48:49
What about the Nip?
:48:51
The Nip was in a cave
:48:52
cut off by our artillery
from his own forces,

:48:54
bypassed by us.
Rather unpopular, I think.

:48:57
Last night he tried to make
contact with his blokes,
