Finally, war, the real kind, has arrived.
1:20:29
I kept an eye on it,
like a bus on the corner of a street.

1:20:34
The British broke through the first line...
1:20:37
but they were stopped by the artillery.
1:20:41
They got stuck in the minefields
and had to turn back.

1:20:46
Maybe this was the third miracle.
1:20:52
Today I looked horror in the face.
1:20:56
At school they teach us.:
1:20:59
''Lucky is he who dies a hero. ''
1:21:02
I've seen many of these heroes.
1:21:06
Those who die are neither lucky
nor unlucky.

1:21:10
They are just dead.
1:21:14
They rot at the bottom of a pit...
1:21:16
without a shred of poetry.
1:21:21
Death is beautiful only in school books.
1:21:24
In real life it's pitiful, horrendous...
1:21:27
and it stinks.
