:15:01
Bittrich's panzer troops
need some rest...

:15:04
if they're to stop Patton.
:15:07
We should pull them back
somewhere safe.

:15:12
Safe, quiet, out of the way.
But where?

:15:16
Arnhem?
:15:22
Arnhem.
:15:24
- I'll be in touch.
- That'll be fine.

:15:31
Why the emergency meeting?
:15:33
- Keeping abreast of the little changes.
- How big are the little changes?

:15:37
I'll answer you with typical
British understatement: gigantic.

:15:41
They can't get us
all in at once.

:15:43
Too many men, too much equipment,
not enough planes.

:15:45
It's going to take three days to get the
men into Arnhem, Poles and the British.

:15:50
- How about us?
- We'll be all right.

:15:52
Aside from the fact that we'll parachute
in daylight, we have no worries.

:15:56
Daylight?
:15:58
- Has it ever been tried before?
- Not in a major drop.

:16:02
-Think there might be a reason for that?
-Let's hope not.

:16:05
- What do you think?
- It'll be all right.

:16:07
It's a "no moon" period anyway.
We have to go in daylight.

:16:10
Just so they get us over
the target area, half a mile away.

:16:13
Three-quarters of a mile--
I'll settle for that.

:16:15
I don't want to hear anything else.
:16:18
- Is there anything else?
- Well, you're my Dutch advisor, Harry.

:16:22
I forgot to tell you something?
:16:24
Only that the Germans first tried
to take Nijmegen Bridge themselves...

:16:27
back in 1940,
and got slaughtered.

:16:35
Go back!
:16:40
Go back!
:16:43
Do as I say!
:16:45
But my friend lives
down the road.

:16:49
It's my birthday
and she has a present for me.

:16:54
Please let me through.
