Ladies and gentlemen,
1:05:24
if you've ever had
a load of hay fall on you,

1:05:27
then you know
how I feel right now.

1:05:29
I don't know if any of you pray, but if
you do, you could pray God to help me.

1:05:34
Good luck, Mr. President.
1:05:37
I wish you didn't
have to call me that.

1:05:39
I never felt so out of place
in all my life.

1:05:41
Here is the caisson
of Franklin Delano Roosevelt,

1:05:45
now making the turn
off of 15th Street...

1:05:48
into Pennsylvania Avenue.
1:05:51
God give me strength
to do this.

1:05:54
And there is
the flag-draped coffin.

1:05:58
The horses with black blankets
under their saddles.

1:06:03
The horses
on the right side,

1:06:05
unmounted.
1:06:08
And it's moving
ever so slowly...

1:06:10
as the crowd stands...
1:06:13
to pay their
last respects...

1:06:16
to the man who was their leader,
their commander in chief,

1:06:20
their friend.
1:06:23
Mr. President.
Hello, General.

1:06:27
We need your authorization.
What have you got?

1:06:37
Well, the President...
1:06:42
Mr. Roosevelt
never told me.

1:06:44
They never told me.
1:06:48
We spent months
of staff time,

1:06:51
tens of millions of dollars
in preparation...

1:06:53
for the greatest invasion
in history,

1:06:55
and when we're
primed and ready,

1:06:58
they send
an air force officer...
