Lieutenant, we can't reinforce and we
have no authority to withdraw you. Out.
1:23:12
That's a hell of a way to run a railroad.
1:23:26
Sir, what's the date today?
1:23:30
It's April 17th.
1:23:35
(Chinese PA) 40 minutes left!
1:23:37
To surrender with honour.
40 minutes.

1:23:45
You know that this insignificant little hill

1:24:39

1:24:47
What do they lose if they don't?
1:24:50
They've gotta succeed or lose face.
1:24:53
I'd like to believe that.
1:24:55
I could say, let'em have their face
and let's get on with the truce.
1:24:59
These aren't just Orientals.
They're Communists.
