:15:01
There's an interested party
in Sardinia.

:15:04
All we need is the cooperation
of the countries we're dealing with.

:15:07
- What countries?
- The African nations, sir,

:15:11
in the Greater Mediterranean area.
:15:13
What we need is an additional
assignment of personnel,

:15:18
a little time and a plane.
:15:20
- What plane?
- One of ours, sir. If I had one,

:15:23
I could get the gasoline to Malta
and bring the eggs back.

:15:27
All right.
:15:28
And if I was taken off combat duty
until I get this into operation...

:15:33
But...
:15:34
I know I'm just
an acting mess officer, Colonel,

:15:38
but it requires my full attention.
It's to everyone's benefit.

:15:41
- Take whatever you need.
- Thank you.

:15:44
What I hope to do is to give the men
the finest cuisine in the world.

:15:49
- Isn't that something to shoot at?
- Yes, Milo, it certainly is.

:16:02
With your permission, I'd like to
show you something I've had printed.

:16:06
- What is it?
- Just an idea, sir. It's a share.

:16:10
- A share?
- In M&M Enterprises.

:16:13
If we get my ideas into practice,
it should be organised like a mart.

:16:17
- A mart?
- A syndicate.

:16:19
An enterprise. There are tremendous
profits to be made, Colonel.

:16:23
- For us?
- For everyone.

:16:25
What's good for M&M Enterprises
will be good for the country.

:16:32
- You'll have our full cooperation.
- Thank you.

:16:35
If I take a plane this afternoon,
I'll get this material to Alexandria.

:16:39
There's a huge cotton crop this year.
:16:42
- Cotton is a very liquid commodity.
- How much?

:16:45
- We'll trade for it.
- With what?

:16:49
Silk! Four thousand yards of silk.
:16:52
How did you get hold of
so much silk?

:16:55
Where the hell's my parachute?
