:47:01
I guess we've been expecting you.
:47:04
Ahem. First of all, let me, um...
:47:08
Let me just say that, uh,
:47:10
there was nothing that, uh,
:47:15
Tom and I wouldn't do for each other.
:47:17
Nothing.
:47:19
He was a good soldier.
:47:22
He was like a brother to me.
:47:25
That night, uh, 25 February...
:47:31
there were enemy tanks in our lines.
:47:36
We thought...
:47:42
I... I thought that, uh,
:47:45
Tom's tank was an enemy tank.
:47:51
And, uh,
:48:00
I gave the order to fire.
:48:06
God help me.
:48:08
I um...
:48:12
Yeah, I killed him.
:48:19
As for the funeral,
:48:24
the lies the Army told...
:48:28
and the lies that I told...
:48:33
to you, I can only...
:48:39
beg for your forgiveness.
:48:46
As far as the...
:48:51
As far as that night, um,
:48:55
I guess there's no way that, uh,
:48:57
I can even begin to ask you to forgive me.
