1:14:04
And I hope by your future deeds and bearing
you will be handed down to posterity...
1:14:10
...as the 1 st Brigade...
1:14:12
...in this, our second war of independence.
1:14:22
Godspeed!
1:14:31
Jackson! Jackson! Jackson! Jackson!
1:14:35
Jackson! Jackson! Jackson!
1:14:51
Gentlemen.
1:14:53
Excuse us, General Burnside...
1:14:55
...General Hancock has information
you may find useful.
1:14:58
Yes, General Hancock, a pleasure.
Sumner, come.
1:15:02
We have visitors.
1:15:04
Sir, General Hancock reports the river
can be forded the short way upstream.
1:15:08
There'll be no difficulty crossing. With
your permission, we can move right away.
1:15:14
General Hancock, I appreciate your efforts
at reconnaissance...
1:15:17
...but this possibility has been
considered and rejected.
1:15:21
The pontoons will be here any time.
1:15:23
We'll cross with not only the men
but also the wagons and supplies.
1:15:27
It would be foolhardy to send the men
without the wagons, the big guns...
1:15:31
Excuse me, am I correct
in my observation...
1:15:33
...that there's little force opposing us
across the river?
1:15:37
Yes, you're absolutely correct.
1:15:39
For once we seem to have caught
Lee by surprise.
1:15:41
Then, sir, if I may suggest,
isn't it possible Lee is moving this way?
1:15:47
Certainly he's aware of our intentions. If
we could occupy the town with infantry...
1:15:52
...it would make our job much easier
when the bridges do arrive.
1:15:56
Yes, but thas risky. Those men
could be cut off. In this weather?
1:15:59
It snows one day, melts the next.
The river could rise unexpectedly.
