:12:07
Attention!
:12:09
There'll be no conditions attached
To service in the British army.

:12:12
Help my man outside
with the baggage.

:12:15
If they're not allowed leave
to defend their families and homes...

:12:19
if the French
attack the settlements,

:12:21
no colonial militia
is going to Fort William Henry.

:12:24
They will report
or be pressed into service.

:12:26
- Any of the boys worth
havin' can disappear.
- They will be found.

:12:30
- Where does that leave you?
- Those men will be found.

:12:33
I cannot imagine His Majesty,
in all his benevolence,

:12:37
would ever object to his
loyal American subjects...

:12:41
defending their hearth and home,
their women and children.

:12:44
Does that mean they
will be granted leave...

:12:47
to defend their homes
if the settlements are attacked?

:12:50
Of course.
:12:57
You got yourself
a colonial militia, General.

:13:07
Major Duncan Heyward
reporting, sir,

:13:10
enroute to Fort William Henry
and bearing dispatches.

:13:12
en route to Fort William Henry
and bearing dispatches.

:13:14
- Safe journey, I trust?
- Yes.

:13:16
And I didn't experience anything
So surprising from Bristol to Albany...

:13:20
as that that
l witnessed here today.

:13:23
And what was that?
:13:25
The Crown negotiating
The terms of service.

:13:30
Well, now, one has to reason with these
colonials to get them to do anything.

:13:35
Tiring, isn't it?
But that's the lay of the land.

:13:38
I thought British policy is
"Make the world England", sir.

:13:56
I see you're to serve with
the 35th regiment of foot
at Fort William Henry...
