- Father Verecker, is it?
- Yes.

1:07:12
Colonel Miller,
1:07:13
commanding the Independent
Polish Parachute Unit.

1:07:16
What can I do for you?
1:07:18
We're on exercise presently.
1:07:21
A handful of my men are here,
the rest are all over Norfolk.

1:07:25
There is a rendezvous tomorrow,
1:07:27
but I'd like to take these chaps
1:07:29
on some manoeuvres
through the village.

1:07:33
If that wouldn't burden you?
1:07:35
On the contrary, we could do
with some excitement here.

1:07:39
I'm sure everyone
in the village will help.

1:07:43
I shall be counting...
1:07:49
..counting on that, Father.
1:07:56
Phillip, Captain Harry Clark
of the American Rangers.

1:08:01
How do you do, Father?
1:08:02
My sister's told me about you.
1:08:04
Pamela, this is Colonel Miller.
Colonel, my sister, Pamela.

1:08:09
(Both) How do you do?
1:08:11
(Verecker) And Captain Clark.
1:08:13
- Colonel.
- Captain.

1:08:15
(Verecker)
I hope you'll stay for tea.

1:08:17
No, I'm sorry.
I'm needed back at headquarters.

1:08:20
We had no idea
you were in the neighbourhood.

1:08:23
Yes, you're a surprise
to us as well.

1:08:30
- Free Polish Paratroopers, huh?
- That's right.

1:08:34
We've got some Poles
in our outfit.

1:08:37
- Maybe they could meet them?
- Yes, if it's not too far.

1:08:41
Where are you staying, Captain?
1:08:43
Eight miles away
in Meltham House.

1:08:46
What strength
would you have there?

1:08:49
We're just a company now.
1:08:51
Meltham House -
I'll remember that.

1:08:54
Miss Verecker.
1:08:56
Father, thank you.
1:08:58
- Captain.
- Colonel.
