1:23:03
You can't be serious.
1:23:04
You're damn right I am!
They might not be pretty. . .
1:23:07
. . .but any one of mine
is worth 10 of yours.
1:23:10
-Those comparisons are hardly the point.
-It's precisely the point.
1:23:13
My contention is that my men are more
than able to handle any job given them.
1:23:17
Now, you gentlemen set this thing up.
You promised them a chance.
1:23:21
At least you can let them
show you what they're capable of.
1:23:24
I shudder to think
what they might be capable of.
1:23:26
Give them a chance to prove it, then
if they fail, your conscience is clear.
1:23:31
Tell me, major. . .
1:23:33
. . .just how would you
have your men prove it?
1:23:39
It can't be done, can it?
1:23:48
Well, yes. I suppose it could.
1:23:51
I mean, there might be a way.
1:23:54
What I mean is,
general, if you recall. . .
1:23:57
. . .next week we've got divisional
maneuvers in Devonshire.
1:23:59
Yes, yes, yes.
1:24:01
Colonel Breed's outfit will be
part of that exercise.
1:24:05
As a matter of fact,
one of his companies. . .
1:24:08
. . .has been assigned the defense
of divisional headquarters.
1:24:12
So?
1:24:15
So. . . .
1:24:17
So you let my 12 men act
as an independent unit. . .
1:24:22
. . .attached to the opposing force.
1:24:25
And they'll knock out Breed's
headquarters and capture his entire staff.
1:24:31
That I'd like to see.
1:24:33
So would I.
1:24:59
Charlie and Fox Companies will support
the back of the woods.
