How are you?
:32:01
George. Good to see you.
:32:05
-You know Arthur Coningham.
-Sir Arthur.

:32:08
Delighted to see you.
:32:10
I've heard so much about you.
:32:17
Gentlemen, it appears there's been a
slight misunderstanding here. . .

:32:22
. . .and Ike thought we should fix it.
:32:24
No, no. No misunderstanding.
:32:26
We're supposed to have Allied
air cover and we don't.

:32:29
German planes are strafing my troops.
:32:32
lf I may say so, general, I'm afraid
your operation reports are inaccurate.

:32:36
Report? Three days ago, the crowds
took off after my command car. . .

:32:40
. . .ran my ass into a ditch.
:32:42
My staff has assured me,
we have complete air supremacy. . .

:32:45
. . .everywhere in the Mediterranean.
:32:47
PATTON:
When I complained about air cover. . .

:32:49
. . .you said our troops
were not battleworthy.

:32:52
You spoke of the discredited practice
of using air force as an alibi. . .

:32:57
. . .for lack of success on the ground.
:33:00
I have to wet-nurse Montgomery,
I don't have to stand for that.

:33:04
I sincerely apologize for that remark,
whoever made it.

:33:08
And I promise you one thing, general:
:33:11
You will see no more German planes.
:33:22
(CHICKEN SQUAWKS)
:33:25
We were discussing air supremacy,
Sir Arthur.
