:08:41
Just got word from G2.
:08:43
At least 50,000 Germans are still here,
on this side of the Rhine,

:08:47
starting to move toward the bridge
at Remagen, but we're gonna cut 'em off.

:08:51
- Who's out front now, Colonel Dent?
- 27th Armoured Infantry, sir.

:08:56
- You again, eh, Barnes?
- Somebody has to be up there, sir.

:09:00
All right, now, listen to me.
I want those Germans.

:09:04
I want an armoured recon outfit
to make an all-out run for the river,

:09:08
see what kind of resistance
we're gonna find.

:09:10
That's Indian country out there.
Loose German units everywhere.

:09:14
But I don't want any tippytoe tactics.
We've gotta move fast.

:09:18
Sir, the men are dead on their feet.
:09:20
So are the Germans, sir.
If you don't mind my saying so, sir.

:09:24
- Do you think you can do it?
- I know we can, sir.

:09:27
It's our only chance to grab the 1 5th Army
before it reaches the Remagen Bridge

:09:31
and hightails it across the Rhine.
:09:33
Be nice if that bridge'd be
in one piece when we got there.

:09:36
Forget bridges. If the Germans haven't
blown them, our airforce will. Get going.

:09:40
You're spearhead.
Strike for Stadt Meckenheim tonight.

:09:43
If you hit trouble, holler. With luck,
we may reach the Rhine tomorrow.

:09:47
Yes, sir.
:09:57
We're spearhead again, Johnny.
