You are a friend
of my husband's?

1:04:06
Of sorts.
1:04:57
ln August 1914,
l volunteered for the army

1:05:01
and was accepted
to my father's old regiment,

1:05:03
the Light Hussars.
1:05:05
l used to think we rode
into the war on horseback,

1:05:09
but now I realize
that in fact

1:05:12
we rode into the war
on words.

1:05:16
Yes, my friend, words.
1:05:19
lf the high command
had used nails

1:05:21
to hammer our feet
to the mud,

1:05:23
l think we would've found
a pair of pliers,

1:05:25
passed them down the line
1:05:27
and made a break for it,
1:05:29
but the words,
1:05:31
the words kept us rooted
to the ground.

1:05:36
Now these are magical words,
1:05:38
used in mass hypnosis.
1:05:40
And if you would like
millions of young men

1:05:42
to give up their lives
for your cause,

1:05:45
you must first
learn these words.

1:05:47
Repeat after me.
1:05:50
The enemy
1:05:53
is "the foe" or "the host."
1:05:55
"The enemy is the foe
or the host."
