1:35:04
I certainly do.
1:35:07
Inchon could be
that bullet.

1:35:12
There's 70,000 men
out there...

1:35:15
waiting to hit Inchon.
1:35:19
As of this moment, the president has
not personally approved this mission.

1:35:24
The last communication I had
from the Joint Chiefs...

1:35:27
said that he'd
been "informed. "

1:35:33
He vacillated, delayed.
1:35:37
Finally gave
begrudging permission...

1:35:41
to proceed here.
1:35:49
Powerful enemies, Court.
1:35:53
Who advised Truman that I was insubordinate
when I visited Chiang Kai-shek?

1:35:57
Who persuaded him
to force me...

1:35:59
to withdraw my letters to
the Veterans of Foreign Wars?

1:36:03
Who are those who seek to humiliate
me and undermine my authority?

1:36:08
The Communists and their fellow
travelers in the British Foreign Office.

1:36:15
If Inchon fails,
they will have a jubilee.

1:36:20
The Joint Chiefs of Staff approved this
invasion because your arguments were valid.

1:36:24
Yes, they were valid.
1:36:26
But if the enemy is ready
with a superior force...

1:36:31
we will not be able
to disengage...

1:36:33
without suffering
enormous losses.

1:36:40
We could lose
this entire fleet.

1:36:44
This date could be marked as one of the
greatest military tragedies in American history.

1:36:50
General, I don't think for
one... Are you surprised, Court?

1:36:55
I'm sharing my doubts with you
after all these years.

1:36:59
Did you
think I was invulnerable?
