:15:04
Quite a performance.
:15:07
What in the name of God is that?
:15:09
Don't worry, she's real.
Belongs to an ltalian general.

:15:12
Any more? - No, she's the only one.
Signorina Vivian something or other.

:15:19
English pigs!
:15:23
She's the only passenger...
- What happened to the 5th Commandos?

:15:28
That's an interesting question.
:15:30
To ask it makes this the bloody
muck-up of all time. - Who are you?

:15:34
Sergeant MacKenzie, 5th Commandos.
- 5th Commandos? Any others here?

:15:40
Well, we're it.
Ed Brown, Bill Wembley,

:15:44
Dan Garth and Reilly.
:15:46
We were left behind when
our unit was moved. Acute dysentery.

:15:50
Except me. I got a bad tattoo
from Alexandria. - And the others?

:15:55
Shipped to a prison camp in Tunisia.
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

:15:59
I don't see why that's a surprise.
- Did he brief you? Major Farrow?

:16:04
Only what he had to. He told us
we were going to Tobruk as prisoners.

:16:09
On the way, we'd scuttle
the German guard and take over.

:16:12
Your credentials say you're an expert
on the harbour guns at Tobruk.

:16:18
If it's any comfort, we had 50 men
trained to blow them to Hell.

:16:22
You said
he only told you what he had to.

:16:25
Any idiot private
could spell it out, sir.

:16:27
Rommel is building up supplies
in Tobruk for his next attack.

:16:31
He controls the air. The only way
to clobber Tobruk is from the sea.

:16:34
To clear the way for Navy
those guns have to be knocked out.

:16:40
That's it, isn't it?
- That's it.

:16:43
I don't think it concerns us.
- It does. How many men do you have?

:16:46
Whatever nonsense you have in mind
you're not involving my men.

:16:49
At 1700 hours tomorrow, one of
our planes will attack the convoy.

:16:55
The purpose was to create confusion
so the 5th Commandos could take over.

:16:59
A deliberate air attack?
- Nevertheless, the pilot will strike.
