:49:00
All right, move out.
:49:06
-I knock that sign down!
-Yes, sir.
:49:14
-Something's moving up there, colonel.
-Hit the dirt! Take cover.
:49:21
Lieutenant Sheen, sir, A Company.
:49:26
Colonel, it's me!
:49:30
-Where did you come from?
-Sainte-Mére-Eglise.
:49:33
We hold the main road
and north side of the square.
:49:36
The Germans have a battery
on the other side of the town...
:49:39
-...and command the countryside.
-And Major Lance?
:49:42
-Holed up in a building in the square.
-F Company?
:49:47
They overshot the drop zone
and landed in the middle of the town.
:49:50
Go on.
:49:52
It was a nightmare, sir. A slaughter.
:49:55
They were mowed down
before they hit the ground.
:50:02
Major Lance sent me to try
and contact you, sir.
:50:05
He wants your permission to pull back
and regroup outside of town.
:50:11
No, damn it. We came here
to take Sainte-Mére-Eglise.
:50:16
We're gonna take it and hold it.
:50:19
Follow the lieutenant, gentlemen.
:50:33
-Sir.
-Thank you.
:50:36
British and Canadians advancing
steadily from Sword, Gold, and Juno.
:50:44
Anything from Omaha?
:50:46
Nothing since the first message:
heavy fighting, heavy casualties.
:50:50
Sir.
:50:55
Omaha?
:50:58
No.
