:06:01
Lieutenant?
Yes, sir?

:06:03
Major Huff's got himself wounded.
Would you look after him, please?

:06:07
Right away, sir. Corporal,
would you take this?

:06:25
Major.
:06:29
So, one of the Battling
Bastards of Bataan, eh?

:06:34
Yes, sir. No Mama,
no Papa, no Uncle Sam.

:06:37
Well, help
is on the way.

:06:40
I have Washington's
solemn promise on that.

:06:43
General Marshall,
Admiral King,

:06:45
will you go
right in, please?

:06:47
Thank you.
:06:51
You said you wanted to talk
over the Corregidor problem.

:06:53
I certainly do. I've gone out
on a limb with the Filipinos.

:06:57
We should be getting more than
inspirational radio messages...

:07:00
through the Japanese
blockade.

:07:03
Have any of our ships
made it?

:07:05
One ship has reached Mindanao,
two more made it to Cebu.

:07:08
The rest were either sunk
or captured. Thank you.

:07:10
So far we've lost better
than 80,000 tons.

:07:12
In other words, MacArthur has
received practically nothing.

:07:14
That's about it,
Mr. President.

:07:16
How long can they hold out?
Matter of weeks.

:07:18
We're still dispatching submarines
to Bataan and Corregidor.

:07:21
We managed to land
some munitions and drugs,

:07:24
and evacuate a few of the
wounded, but that's all we can do.

:07:26
Unless you wanna start stripping the defenses
of the West Coast, the Panama Canal...

:07:30
One bombing of the canal and
it's out of action for two years.

:07:32
It's a more vulnerable target, more
important target than Pearl Harbor.

:07:35
And Hitler will have the whole North
American continent for a target...

:07:38
if we don't stop him in Europe.
Exactly.

:07:40
But you know
what's going to happen.

:07:42
Like everything else, Douglas is
going to take our strategy personally.

:07:46
He thinks the blockade
is a figment of my imagination,

:07:48
and that I'm somehow
deliberately robbing him of glory.

:07:55
I wish you people would send
Douglas a globe of the world...
