:06:02
We're going there, pal.
When we're in 'Nam, we're in Combat City.
:06:07
I am ready. Really ready.
:06:12
I'll pop some rounds with you. Marine!
:06:16
- How's Vi taken to your leaving?
- I think she hates everything military.
:06:21
But she stands behind me.
She knows I want it more than anything.
:06:25
- How about Sally?
- She's OK.
:06:28
I don't think she really understands it all,
but she accepts it.
:06:33
You can't ask
for a helluva lot more than that.
:06:39
An American spokesman reported
rockets, artillery and mortar fire...
:06:44
- Jeez!
- Remember Jim Hanson?
:06:47
He got blown away
in the middle of the street right in Saigon.
:06:52
That's an embarrassment.
Makes us look like the goddamn B Team.
:06:57
Word is from on top that Charlie
shot his wad with this Tet Offensive
:07:00
and it's just a matter of a mop-up time.
:07:04
I've waited a long time
for an opportunity like this.
:07:07
You're gonna make major.
:07:10
- Major?
- Major.
:07:12
Major and Mrs Robert Hyde? I'll have
to get my skirts lengthened for that one.
:07:18
Start wearing girdles.
:07:20
- You'll have to watch your language.
- Right. Very reserved.
:07:26
I'm actually excited.
I never thought it would get like this.
:07:31
I have competitive nervousness.
I feel like I'm off to the Olympic Games.
:07:37
Bob is very sexy.
:07:39
In 13 months I'll throw you
the damnedest party.
:07:42
We'll have a side of beef,
a case of Jack Daniels,
:07:45
and maybe I'll even get you
a couple of congressmen.
:07:48
Fantastic.
:07:50
- I'll bring you back a souvenir.
- Like what?
:07:53
A Commie AK-47.
:07:56
- Robert? Sorry to interrupt.
- Mrs Vickery.
:07:59
I wanted to pass on
the Colonel's best wishes.
