Sergeant?
17
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:43,467
Stretcher bearer!
18
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,067

We have to be 10 times
better just to be equal.

[uplifting choral music]

00:02:30,867 --> 00:02:33,067
* To my soul *
26
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,400

27
00:02:35,533 --> 00:02:40,500
* Who send his precious peace *

[choral humming]
32
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:04,233
So, how are you feeling today?
33
00:03:04,367 --> 00:03:05,167
Better.
34
00:03:05,967 --> 00:03:06,800
Stronger.
35
00:03:08,467 --> 00:03:09,933
That's my answer definitely.
36
00:03:11,767 --> 00:03:12,667
You don't look it.
37
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,067
Why thank you brother.
38
00:03:18,233 --> 00:03:20,867
Among my letters
yesterday there was.
39
00:03:21,067 --> 00:03:22,367
I know.
40
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:23,833
An honourable discharge,
there's no shame, Walter.
41
00:03:23,967 --> 00:03:26,800
They've not discharged me Eddie.
42
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,067
They've offered me the chance
to train as an officer.
43
00:03:32,233 --> 00:03:33,467
You're hardly out of
your sickbed Walter.
44
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,433
I'm fine, I'm fine.
45
00:03:36,567 --> 00:03:38,067
You had trench fever.
46
00:03:38,167 --> 00:03:39,933
You were sick enough for
them to send you home.
47
00:03:40,067 --> 00:03:41,133
Well I'm fine now.
48
00:03:43,567 --> 00:03:44,867
You're going to
say no of course.
49
00:03:45,067 --> 00:03:48,533
I've never seen an
officer that, well,
50
00:03:48,667 --> 00:03:51,633
looks like us before
Eddie, have you?
51
00:03:51,767 --> 00:03:53,633
Isn't this something we
should be thinking about?
52
00:03:53,767 --> 00:03:54,467
No.
53
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:55,733
Come on.
54
00:03:55,867 --> 00:03:57,967
Pa always said aim for the top.
55
00:03:58,100 --> 00:03:59,467
Be second to no man.
56
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:01,967
You were second to no man
on the football pitch.
57
00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:05,900
It didn't stop them booing
you, dropping you, selling you.
58
00:04:06,067 --> 00:04:08,367
They're asking me to do my bit.
59
00:04:08,500 --> 00:04:12,500
They are asking you to risk
your life again Walter.
60
00:04:15,767 --> 00:04:18,567
You think you can
survive that again?
61
00:04:18,700 --> 00:04:22,200
[soft instrumental music]
62
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,433
[Soldier] Attention!
63
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:38,067
Gentlemen, welcome to Gailes.
64
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,400
My name is Captain Coombes
65
00:04:39,533 --> 00:04:41,067
and I will be in charge
of your office training
66
00:04:41,133 --> 00:04:42,533
for the next four months.
67
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:45,133
By the time you leave here
68
00:04:45,267 --> 00:04:48,200
you will be the most
superior of men.
69
00:04:49,933 --> 00:04:51,533
Now I know one or two
of you have seen action
70
00:04:51,667 --> 00:04:54,067
on the front lines,
but here we start again
71
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,867
and we start as equals
with one aim in mind,
72
00:04:58,300 --> 00:05:00,967
to make you officers in the
finest army in the world.
73
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,067
At ease.
74
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,500
I see it was Colonel Haig-Brown
75
00:05:12,633 --> 00:05:14,700
that recommended you
for officer training.
76
00:05:16,433 --> 00:05:17,567
Good man, Haig-Brown.
77
00:05:24,067 --> 00:05:26,400
Look, I shan't beat
about the bush Tull.
78
00:05:26,533 --> 00:05:28,067
I know we're in desperate
need of officers,
79
00:05:28,167 --> 00:05:29,500
but this is a step too far.
80
00:05:30,967 --> 00:05:35,967
Celebrated footballer or not,
I am a man of military law
81
00:05:37,133 --> 00:05:40,733
and it says here on
page 198 to be precise
82
00:05:40,867 --> 00:05:44,133
that officers shall be
of pure European descent.
83
00:05:45,267 --> 00:05:48,333
Page 471, subsection
two, note three
84
00:05:48,467 --> 00:05:51,467
that Negros and other
persons of colour
85
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:55,100
shall not exercise any
actual command or power.
86
00:05:57,733 --> 00:05:59,367
This is not about
prejudice Tull.
87
00:06:00,467 --> 00:06:01,467
It's simply logic.
88
00:06:02,833 --> 00:06:05,567
A Negro officer would affect
the morale of the men.
89
00:06:05,700 --> 00:06:07,200
Permission to speak sir.
90
00:06:07,333 --> 00:06:08,733
Granted.
91
00:06:08,867 --> 00:06:10,400
I have led white
men previously sir.
92
00:06:10,533 --> 00:06:12,067
Nonsense.
93
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:13,733
You were a
non-commissioned officer
94
00:06:13,867 --> 00:06:16,233
carrying out orders given
to you by a superior.
95
00:06:20,300 --> 00:06:23,767
Now I can't contradict
my superiors,
96
00:06:23,900 --> 00:06:27,167
but be warned Tull, my job is
to ensure the smooth running
97
00:06:27,300 --> 00:06:28,667
of this camp.
98
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,167
Anything that gets in the
way of that is an enemy,
99
00:06:31,300 --> 00:06:34,067
not just of mine, but
of the entire war effort
100
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,767
and it will not be tolerated.
101
00:06:36,900 --> 00:06:38,067
Do I make myself clear?
102
00:06:40,067 --> 00:06:41,200
Perfectly sir.
103
00:06:43,500 --> 00:06:44,333
Dismissed.
104
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,733
This really is the short straw.
105
00:07:23,867 --> 00:07:25,633
We're in the middle
of bloody no-where.
106
00:07:25,767 --> 00:07:27,267
No man's land.
107
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,500
I'm not looking forward to PT.
108
00:07:29,633 --> 00:07:30,667
Never my forte.
109
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:32,100
What is your forte?
110
00:07:32,233 --> 00:07:33,133
Nothing much.
111
00:07:33,267 --> 00:07:34,433
Then what are you doing here?
112
00:07:34,567 --> 00:07:36,333
Target practise for Fritz.
113
00:07:36,467 --> 00:07:37,533
My country needs me.
114
00:07:37,667 --> 00:07:38,933
Our country must be desperate.
115
00:07:39,067 --> 00:07:41,567
[Fuller] Stand by your beds.
116
00:07:50,300 --> 00:07:51,267
Why is this bed empty?
117
00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,067
May I speak frankly, sir?
118
00:07:54,967 --> 00:07:56,067
Go ahead.
119
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,067
I refuse to sleep in the
same room as a Negro.
120
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,433
Then I suggest
you sleep outside.
121
00:08:03,567 --> 00:08:05,600
Either that or go home
immediately, Hummings.
122
00:08:05,733 --> 00:08:07,067
Either option's fine by me.
123
00:08:19,900 --> 00:08:23,067
Cadet Tull, did you bring
slacks and shirts to match?
124
00:08:23,133 --> 00:08:23,967
No sir.
125
00:08:25,867 --> 00:08:28,533
Do you think I should
dispose of the shoes, sir?
126
00:08:28,667 --> 00:08:31,067
First sign of a good
officer, sacrifice.
127
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:46,867
Thank you.
128
00:08:47,067 --> 00:08:48,700
Contribution to the
battalion funds.
129
00:09:03,733 --> 00:09:05,567
I expect you to
behave like gentlemen.
130
00:09:12,700 --> 00:09:16,067
[lively drumming music]
131
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,400
We're supposed to be
running not strolling.
132
00:09:23,533 --> 00:09:27,100
We're shaking yesterday's long
journey here from our legs.
133
00:09:27,233 --> 00:09:28,633
We're waking up the mind.
134
00:09:28,767 --> 00:09:29,733
We need to think.
135
00:09:31,100 --> 00:09:34,300
Mr. Tull, you're supposed
to be an athlete.
136
00:09:34,433 --> 00:09:35,767
Faster!
137
00:09:35,900 --> 00:09:36,833
I said faster!
138
00:09:38,700 --> 00:09:39,800
Who's the slowcoach?
139
00:09:39,933 --> 00:09:42,067
Cadet Willis, sir,
a bit of a pudding.
140
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:44,400
How are the men with Tull?
141
00:09:44,533 --> 00:09:46,133
[Fuller] Too early to say sir.
142
00:09:47,367 --> 00:09:49,367
Anything untoward, let
me know immediately.
143
00:09:49,500 --> 00:09:50,567
Yes, sir.
144
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:52,400
Mr. Willis you're walking.
145
00:09:52,533 --> 00:09:54,700
This isn't a Sunday stroll.
146
00:09:54,833 --> 00:09:58,333
If Fritz could see you now
he'd be laughing his cock off.
147
00:09:58,467 --> 00:09:59,533
[Willis] I'm trying sir.
148
00:09:59,667 --> 00:10:00,567
Stop now.
149
00:10:00,700 --> 00:10:02,233
Everyone stop, now.
150
00:10:03,133 --> 00:10:03,967
Attention!
151
00:10:05,700 --> 00:10:08,667
Don't ever answer me
back Mr. Willis, ever!
152
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,167
Any of you try that trick,
153
00:10:10,300 --> 00:10:13,233
I'll have you on a seven-day
latrine duty in a flash!
154
00:10:13,367 --> 00:10:14,800
Do you hear me?
155
00:10:14,933 --> 00:10:15,733
[Company] Yes sir!
156
00:10:15,867 --> 00:10:16,933
Get moving.
157
00:10:21,167 --> 00:10:23,867
[men laughing]
158
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,100
Two and half hours,
I'm gonna be sore.
159
00:10:27,233 --> 00:10:30,000
[men chattering]
160
00:10:35,433 --> 00:10:38,933
[soft instrumental music]
161
00:10:49,267 --> 00:10:53,600
My friend, well, he's
simply too shy to tell you
162
00:10:53,733 --> 00:10:57,400
that he thinks you're the
most amazing vision of beauty
163
00:10:57,533 --> 00:10:59,000
he's ever seen.
164
00:10:59,133 --> 00:11:01,067
I happen to agree with him.
165
00:11:01,133 --> 00:11:06,067
You both are, well, both
are simply the Madonnas.
166
00:11:07,167 --> 00:11:08,767
Hennessey, can we get a move on?
167
00:11:08,900 --> 00:11:09,800
I think I love you.
168
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:13,067
I'm sorry about my friend.
169
00:11:13,133 --> 00:11:15,933
It's fine, it's
rather sweet actually.
170
00:11:22,300 --> 00:11:23,133
Thank you.
171
00:11:25,733 --> 00:11:28,333
You look like you
need a little extra.
172
00:11:35,467 --> 00:11:36,967
I'm Connie by the way.
173
00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:38,067
Walter.
174
00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:39,200
Walter Tull.
175
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:42,633
Thank you.
176
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:45,433
What you doing that for?
177
00:11:45,567 --> 00:11:46,400
Doing what?
178
00:11:46,533 --> 00:11:47,600
Being all, you know, with him.
179
00:11:47,733 --> 00:11:48,467
I'm not being anything.
180
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,300
Yes, you were.
181
00:11:49,433 --> 00:11:50,267
You were all.
182
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,333
He spoke to me, I spoke back.
183
00:11:52,467 --> 00:11:54,500
What am I supposed to

My father is hardly
what you'd call.
187
00:12:05,833 --> 00:12:07,333
I don't care what
your father is.
188
00:12:07,467 --> 00:12:08,633
This table is full.
189
00:12:29,500 --> 00:12:31,400
God, it's cold up here.
190
00:12:33,167 --> 00:12:34,467
Aye.
191
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,800
They do say however,
it'll get warmer, however.
192
00:12:37,700 --> 00:12:38,800
Or we'll get used to it.
193
00:12:38,933 --> 00:12:40,633
Would you mind terribly if we'd?
194
00:12:48,167 --> 00:12:49,533
Fine.
195
00:12:49,667 --> 00:12:50,500
I understand.
196
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:01,567
How many of you men have
used a rifle before?
197
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:06,300
How many of you have
shot at a man before?
198
00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:12,233
As I'm sure you can attest,
199
00:13:12,367 --> 00:13:15,067
it is a totally
different affair.
200
00:13:15,133 --> 00:13:17,067
The first think
you have to learn
201
00:13:17,133 --> 00:13:19,833
is how to hold the
rifle with respect,
202
00:13:19,967 --> 00:13:23,067
with love even, like a woman.
203
00:13:24,333 --> 00:13:27,467

held a woman before?

00:13:28,867 --> 00:13:30,433
Did I say something
funny Mr. Hennessey?
206
00:13:30,567 --> 00:13:31,400
No sir.
207
00:13:32,733 --> 00:13:36,433
Mr. Tull, I'm told
you're not stranger
208
00:13:36,567 --> 00:13:39,200
to showing the white
man how it's done.
209
00:13:39,333 --> 00:13:42,100
Come on, let's not monkey about.
210
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,467

we've learnt in

You will read it,

regurgitate their contents

Suppose you've had
far worse than that

on the football pitch?
259
00:15:50,833 --> 00:15:51,667
Far worse.
260
00:15:54,667 --> 00:15:56,767
Interesting place
though this, isn't it?
261
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,600
The brightest and the
best, being trained,
262
00:16:00,733 --> 00:16:03,733
so that we can lead more
men to their deaths.
263
00:16:03,867 --> 00:16:05,567
That's very optimistic of you.
264
00:16:05,700 --> 00:16:06,500
Am I wrong?
265
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:10,500
I mean, you've been there.
266
00:16:11,633 --> 00:16:13,833
So if you feel like
that, why are you here?
267
00:16:15,867 --> 00:16:18,700
My father and my grandfather
were both officers
268
00:16:18,833 --> 00:16:20,733
as much as I hate
it, I have to be.
269
00:16:22,267 --> 00:16:24,600
The question is, why
are you here Tull?
270
00:16:25,833 --> 00:16:27,600
Allowing them to
put the wind up you,
271

make an ass of you.
272
00:16:28,933 --> 00:16:31,067
No-one's making an
ass of me, all right?
273
00:16:33,333 --> 00:16:35,733
You've seen the scale
of this massacre
274
00:16:35,867 --> 00:16:37,933
and yet you jump when
they offer you the chance
275
00:16:38,067 --> 00:16:40,233
to lead more working
men to their deaths?
276
00:16:42,667 --> 00:16:44,733
I don't question a
Negro being here Tull.
277
00:16:46,133 --> 00:16:50,633
I question why a Negro, treated
as you are in this country,
278
00:16:50,767 --> 00:16:52,567
would want to be here
in the first place.

Yes, it's one word, I'm
not stupid you know.
283
00:17:12,067 --> 00:17:13,300
I didn't say you were.
284
00:17:14,167 --> 00:17:14,867
No, you didn't.
285
00:17:15,067 --> 00:17:15,833

the door for me.

So is that how you
ladies do it down here?

291
00:17:25,267 --> 00:17:27,067
I don't quite understand
what you mean.

00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:31,433
You know, opening
doors, saying hello.
293
00:17:32,867 --> 00:17:34,233
If you mean do we have more
manners than the English girls
294
00:17:34,367 --> 00:17:36,500
then the answer's yes.
295
00:17:36,633 --> 00:17:38,067
Well, I'm glad to hear it.

glad to hear it.

on a Saturday night in a
village like this then?

of her reputation,

she keeps herself to herself.

Oh, reputation, reputation.

part of myself

Anyway, listen.

00:18:05,867 --> 00:18:09,200
How about you and me find
a town far away from here,
307
00:18:09,333 --> 00:18:13,600
where no-one knows us and
well, we can be free as birds.

You don't just have to lead
your men intellectually,

you have to be superior
to them in every way.
325

The quickest way to
gain their respect
326
00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:09,567
is to physically impress them.

329
00:19:17,267 --> 00:19:20,533
The quickest way to lose
their respect is to be weak.

There's always one
that can't handle it,

and I think that's you,
isn't it Mr. Willis?

with me Mr. Tull.

If Mr. Willis cannot
complete a basic exercise
339
00:19:39,500 --> 00:19:41,067
he should not be here.

00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:42,067
Carry on.

the famous sportsman?

No, I don't know about famous.

but I'm a soldier now.

saw you play once.

up with someone else.

That is so.
365
00:21:00,467 --> 00:21:01,833
Do you miss it?
366
00:21:01,967 --> 00:21:05,633
I miss the travelling,
but I'm a soldier now,
367
00:21:05,767 --> 00:21:08,133
war moves on, time
carries on till then.
368
00:21:08,267 --> 00:21:09,467
You'll just become an officer
369
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:10,800
and travel the world that way.
370
00:21:10,933 --> 00:21:11,767
Yeah.
371
00:21:14,067 --> 00:21:15,567
Have you been to many places?
372
00:21:15,700 --> 00:21:19,767
Let's see I was
born in Folkestone,
373
00:21:19,900 --> 00:21:21,433
educated in Bethnal
Green, London.
374
00:21:21,567 --> 00:21:22,333
Sounds posh.
375
00:21:22,467 --> 00:21:23,567
It was an orphanage.
376
00:21:24,967 --> 00:21:27,267
I have been to
Argentina, Uruguay.
377
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:28,467
-South America?
-Uh-huh.
378
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:29,933
Yeah, it was a
football tournament.
379
00:21:30,067 --> 00:21:31,267
We only lost one match.
380
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,100
It wasn't my fault, you
can tell your father.
381
00:21:33,233 --> 00:21:36,833
Actually we all got very ill,
so basically they cheated.
382
00:21:36,967 --> 00:21:38,267
-Excuses.
-No they did.
383
00:21:41,900 --> 00:21:43,700
Been to France,
helped dig a trench.
384
00:21:44,867 --> 00:21:46,767
And now I'm in Scotland
doing the same thing.
385
00:21:49,233 --> 00:21:50,600
How about you?
386
00:21:50,733 --> 00:21:51,533
No.
387
00:21:53,067 --> 00:21:53,933
This is it for me.
388
00:21:55,433 --> 00:21:58,700
Gailes, Scotland, it's home.
389
00:22:01,700 --> 00:22:04,467
And this is where I leave you.
390
00:22:06,867 --> 00:22:08,267
What under the bridge?
391
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,667
No, my brother waits
for me just over it.
392
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:13,600
Ahh.
393
00:22:15,933 --> 00:22:18,067
Well, thanks Connie.
394
00:22:18,133 --> 00:22:20,733
It's been the best conversation
I've had in a long while.
395
00:22:20,867 --> 00:22:23,067
That's because you're
talking about yourself.
396
00:22:23,133 --> 00:22:23,967
Oh yeah.
397
00:22:25,267 --> 00:22:28,400
-We should have some more.
-I'd like that.
398
00:22:30,633 --> 00:22:31,667
Good.
399
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:32,967
[chuckling]
400
00:22:33,100 --> 00:22:35,300
-Good night.
-See you tomorrow.
401
00:22:35,433 --> 00:22:36,267
-Yeah.
-Goodnight.
402
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,900
We'll talk about you next time.
403
00:22:38,067 --> 00:22:39,467
Good.
404
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,667
Good night.
405
00:22:41,967 --> 00:22:44,900
[soft piano music]
406
00:23:00,867 --> 00:23:02,767
It is the role of the officer
407
00:23:02,900 --> 00:23:06,333
to ensure that the men under
his command follow the barrage
408
00:23:06,467 --> 00:23:10,267
at the correct pace and
at the correct distance.
409
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,767
50 yards is about as
close as we would risk.
410
00:23:14,900 --> 00:23:19,900
So, let's see who knows
their yards from their feet.
411
00:23:21,067 --> 00:23:23,133
On a beautiful
clear day like this,
412
00:23:23,267 --> 00:23:28,267
identifying the 50-yard mark
may not be much of a problem.
413
00:23:28,733 --> 00:23:29,767
However.
414
00:23:29,900 --> 00:23:33,067
[firecracker buzzing]
415
00:23:38,300 --> 00:23:39,133
Like this.
416
00:23:40,567 --> 00:23:45,533
Well, it's a little more
difficult, isn't it gentlemen?
417
00:23:46,300 --> 00:23:48,067
[firecracker buzzing]
418
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,900
Move as quickly as you
can to what you believe
419
00:23:51,067 --> 00:23:52,767
to be the 50-yard mark.
420
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:57,500
Stick your flag in the earth
and return to first position.
421
00:23:59,900 --> 00:24:00,767
Go.
422
00:24:03,533 --> 00:24:06,133
Remember you have men
on either side of you.
423
00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,800
What you think is earth might
be your best friend's big toe.
424
00:24:11,933 --> 00:24:15,433
[rhythmic drumming music]
425
00:24:17,133 --> 00:24:22,133
-[chattering]
-[gunfire blaring]
426
00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:41,667
[Walter] Come on!
427
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:42,700
Come on Tull.
428
00:24:45,733 --> 00:24:48,800
Well that was a mess,
wasn't it gentlemen?
429
00:24:49,867 --> 00:24:53,167
Mr. Tull, I'm knocking you out
430
00:24:53,300 --> 00:24:55,467
because you've done it before.
431
00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:59,067
That makes the
winner, Mr. Willis.
432
00:25:00,100 --> 00:25:03,267
Hold onto the
celebration Mr. Willis.
433
00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,067
You're still a few feet out.
434
00:25:06,467 --> 00:25:08,333
That few feet could
be the difference
435
00:25:08,467 --> 00:25:10,067
between life and death.
436
00:25:11,067 --> 00:25:12,500
10, hut.
437
00:25:19,933 --> 00:25:21,167
You see that?
438
00:25:41,300 --> 00:25:44,433
I just wanted to thank
you for helping me.
439
00:25:46,133 --> 00:25:49,200
And sorry about the other day.
440
00:26:04,700 --> 00:26:09,100
So gentlemen, once again I
say this is all about speed.
441
00:26:10,267 --> 00:26:11,500
Getting the bullets
into the magazine
442
00:26:11,633 --> 00:26:13,333
as quickly as possible.
443
00:26:13,467 --> 00:26:16,067
If the Lewis gunner has to wait,
444
00:26:16,133 --> 00:26:18,433
that could be the
end of your platoon.
445
00:26:20,233 --> 00:26:21,067
Mr. Tull?
446
00:26:22,500 --> 00:26:23,900
Are you listening, Mr. Tull?
447
00:26:25,233 --> 00:26:27,467
Just because you
have done this before
448
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:29,600
does not mean you do
not have to listen.
449
00:26:33,700 --> 00:26:35,400
Mr. Hummings.
450
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,767
That is useless Mr. Hummings.
451
00:27:04,900 --> 00:27:07,067
A Girl Guide could do
this exercise quicker.
452
00:27:08,867 --> 00:27:11,833
Mr. Tull, replace Mr Hummings.
453
00:27:14,067 --> 00:27:15,067
Parade yourself boy!
454
00:27:16,967 --> 00:27:20,933
I didn't ask Mr. Cooper, what
are you looking at him for?
455
00:27:31,300 --> 00:27:34,467
[soft drumming music]
456
00:27:35,967 --> 00:27:38,800
[gunfire blaring]
457
00:27:42,733 --> 00:27:47,733
-[bombs exploding]
-[men chattering]
458
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:49,867
What's the matter with you boy?
459
00:27:50,067 --> 00:27:51,333
Get on with it.
460
00:27:51,467 --> 00:27:53,900
Maybe this is all too much
for you, eh, Mr. Tull?
461
00:27:54,067 --> 00:27:55,400
Maybe it is, sir.
462
00:27:55,533 --> 00:27:57,267
Or maybe I just don't like
being called boy or paraded.
463
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,067
Don't be facetious
with me Mr. Tull.
464
00:28:00,167 --> 00:28:01,767
Facetious, sir? I don't
know what that means.
465
00:28:01,900 --> 00:28:02,633
Out!
466
00:28:02,767 --> 00:28:03,967
Out right now!
467
00:28:12,133 --> 00:28:13,067
Do you think this
is the right way
468
00:28:13,133 --> 00:28:14,600
to go about this Cadet Tull?
469
00:28:14,733 --> 00:28:16,433
About what sir?
470
00:28:16,567 --> 00:28:17,400
Don't.
471
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:23,100
I know what you're
going through Tull.
472
00:28:23,233 --> 00:28:26,167
With respect sir, I
don't think you do.
473
00:28:27,500 --> 00:28:31,267
I have been praised and
promoted for serving our country
474
00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,700
and yet I have not be
afforded the respect.
475
00:28:33,833 --> 00:28:36,300
Respect is not handed
out here, it is earned.
476
00:28:36,433 --> 00:28:37,533
How can I earn it?
477
00:28:39,267 --> 00:28:40,400
Fuller speaks to
me as if I'm some--
478
00:28:40,533 --> 00:28:42,567
That is all part of
your training Tull,
479
00:28:42,700 --> 00:28:44,700
your specific training.
480
00:28:45,900 --> 00:28:47,600
You think it'll all
be fine on the field
481
00:28:47,733 --> 00:28:50,100
because men have
followed you before?
482
00:28:50,233 --> 00:28:51,667
Think again.
483
00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,067
You are not their
superior officer.
484
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,067
I'm minded to recommend
to Colonel Baxter
485
00:28:58,200 --> 00:28:59,867
that you be released
from Gailes.
486
00:29:02,467 --> 00:29:03,667
Have you nothing to say?
487
00:29:06,300 --> 00:29:07,867
Then I'll give you till Monday.
488
00:29:08,933 --> 00:29:10,200
Dismissed, Mr. Tull.
489
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:27,300
Dear father, thank you
for the gift of family
490
00:29:29,633 --> 00:29:31,500
and of food,
491
00:29:33,467 --> 00:29:34,300
and
492
00:29:35,867 --> 00:29:37,367
everything else.
493
00:29:38,733 --> 00:29:39,567
Amen.
494
00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:41,233
Amen.
495
00:29:43,633 --> 00:29:45,267
That was very articulate.
496
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:49,267
We can't all be pillars
of the community, can we?
497
00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:51,400
Don't be jealous now just
because I have a steady job.
498
00:29:51,533 --> 00:29:52,600
Steady job?
499
00:29:52,733 --> 00:29:54,233
You don't take money
from half your patients.
500
00:29:54,367 --> 00:29:55,733
Only the half who
can't afford to pay.
501
00:29:55,867 --> 00:29:58,267
It's a wonder you've got any
food in your house at all.
502
00:30:01,433 --> 00:30:02,967
So how are you feeling?
503
00:30:03,100 --> 00:30:03,767
Fine.
504
00:30:03,900 --> 00:30:05,700
Yeah, everything's fine.
505
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,433
So you're fitting in all right?
506
00:30:17,467 --> 00:30:19,100
They've given me till Monday
507
00:30:20,533 --> 00:30:22,800
to tell them whether or not
I want to stay at Gailes,
508
00:30:24,233 --> 00:30:25,233
and I don't know.
509
00:30:27,167 --> 00:30:29,767
I've never walked out
on anything in my life.
510
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,267
I wish it was as straight
forward as my colour.
511
00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:36,367
But it's more than that.
512
00:30:41,533 --> 00:30:43,200
I keep falling into sweats.
513
00:30:45,033 --> 00:30:47,200
Seeing things I've
pushed out of my mind.
514
00:30:47,333 --> 00:30:49,633
Then you won't be
walking out on anything.
515
00:30:49,767 --> 00:30:51,567
The Rangers are just
waiting for you to return.
516
00:30:51,700 --> 00:30:54,167
I don't care about
football right now Eddie.
517
00:30:54,300 --> 00:30:55,367
I don't care.
518
00:30:57,233 --> 00:30:58,367
That's all you've
got to say to me?
519
00:30:58,500 --> 00:30:59,333
Come home?
520
00:30:59,467 --> 00:31:00,933
What else do you want me to say?
521
00:31:07,233 --> 00:31:10,067
Do you remember when Pa
used to tell us stories
522
00:31:10,133 --> 00:31:12,067
of Grandad in the West Indies?
523
00:31:14,500 --> 00:31:17,567
How do you think
Grandpa survived?
524
00:31:18,733 --> 00:31:20,733
I contend he just
got on with it.
525
00:31:20,867 --> 00:31:22,833
I can't imagine what our
grandfather went through Walter,
526
00:31:22,967 --> 00:31:25,967
but I do know he didn't
choose to be a slave.
527
00:31:27,433 --> 00:31:29,433
He didn't choose his path.
528
00:31:31,300 --> 00:31:32,767
But you, on the
other hand, Walter.
529
00:31:32,900 --> 00:31:34,067
Some might say it chose me.
530
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,533
Well, I'm not one of them.
531
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,533
[soft orchestral music]
532
00:32:03,867 --> 00:32:06,500
What you did was stupid Tull.
533
00:32:06,633 --> 00:32:09,300
You don't trade blow for
blow with the establishment.
534
00:32:11,500 --> 00:32:14,700
You outsmart them,
out think them Walter.
535
00:32:16,900 --> 00:32:19,200
I don't know what your point is.
536
00:32:21,567 --> 00:32:23,967
I've seen the way you
jump when a gun's fired.
537
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,200
The way you sweat
when you remember.
538
00:32:29,333 --> 00:32:30,900
You may fool the others,
539
00:32:31,067 --> 00:32:34,700
but a man who's seen shells
exploding in front of his face
540
00:32:34,833 --> 00:32:39,133
understands why this cannot be
allowed to go on for longer.
541
00:32:42,767 --> 00:32:44,867
The Russian troops are
in mutiny in Petrograd,
542
00:32:45,067 --> 00:32:46,900
there are rumours of
unrest amongst the French.
543
00:32:47,067 --> 00:32:48,767
How long before
it hits our boys?
544
00:32:50,167 --> 00:32:51,900
I don't think it will.
545
00:32:55,267 --> 00:32:56,800
It depends who's leading them.
546
00:33:05,633 --> 00:33:06,933
I want to be an officer
547
00:33:07,067 --> 00:33:10,700
because I know I
can do a better job
548
00:33:10,833 --> 00:33:12,167
than those that led me.
549
00:33:13,933 --> 00:33:15,900
I'm not gonna lead
our men into mutiny.
550
00:33:17,767 --> 00:33:19,800
If I were you I'd
be very careful
551
00:33:19,933 --> 00:33:21,500
who I spoke to in that fashion.
552
00:33:21,633 --> 00:33:24,100
It's very dangerous talk.
553
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:47,767
So Cadet Tull.
554
00:33:48,933 --> 00:33:52,933
Sir if you could allow
me, I'd like to stay on.
555
00:33:53,067 --> 00:33:53,900
Succeed.
556
00:33:55,267 --> 00:33:57,200
Serve my country
the best way I can.
557
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,800
Is that your honest
feeling Tull?
558
00:34:01,933 --> 00:34:03,067
Yes sir, it is.
559
00:34:04,733 --> 00:34:05,767
Then stay you shall.
560
00:34:07,967 --> 00:34:08,800
Thank you sir.
561
00:34:25,500 --> 00:34:29,133
How do you survive war, Walter?
562
00:34:33,833 --> 00:34:36,600
With the help of the men
around you, I suppose.
563
00:34:38,133 --> 00:34:38,967
Your team
564
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:43,067
and God.
565
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,833
Can't dodge a bullet, the
bullet has to miss you.
566
00:34:53,267 --> 00:34:56,967
The best way to survive war
is not to think about death.
567
00:34:57,100 --> 00:34:58,800
Even though it's all around you?
568
00:35:02,433 --> 00:35:05,067
So's life, friendship.
569
00:35:09,167 --> 00:35:11,367
It's hard to understand
unless you've been there,
570
00:35:11,500 --> 00:35:12,333
but you'll see.
571
00:35:14,733 --> 00:35:16,800
You find brothers in war.
572
00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,867
Men prepared to lay
their lives down for you.
573
00:35:23,067 --> 00:35:24,200
Not just for king,
574
00:35:26,233 --> 00:35:27,100

last time you do this exercise

and there is not a life
on the other end of this
628
00:38:22,467 --> 00:38:24,567
that will not be damaged.

If you mess it up
you lose a limb.

are no good to your country

you will not attract,

you do, certainly not satisfy.

Correct.

00:38:55,633 --> 00:38:59,667
We lob them taking care not
to hit the overhead parapet
641

and have them rebounding back
into our own bloody trench.

and it's far from funny
when it does, and so

apologise right now.

talk to me like that.

didn't need to do that.

00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:48,067
I know.
722
00:43:58,067 --> 00:43:59,733
It's stupid, and I'm
gonna regret saying this
723
00:43:59,867 --> 00:44:02,833
the instant it comes out of
my mouth, but don't forget me.
724
00:44:06,567 --> 00:44:09,333
And if you find
that you miss me,
725
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:13,233
come back.
726
00:44:16,300 --> 00:44:17,767
Come back to me Walter.
727
00:44:18,933 --> 00:44:20,133
How long would you
be willing to wait?
728
00:44:20,267 --> 00:44:21,100
Try me.
729
00:44:33,300 --> 00:44:34,367
[Fuller] Mr. Hennessey.
730
00:44:34,500 --> 00:44:35,333
Yes.
731
00:44:37,567 --> 00:44:38,633
Mr. Cooper.
732
00:44:41,500 --> 00:44:42,333
Mr. Willis.
733
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:45,067
Thank you.
734
00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:46,300
Well done gentlemen.
735
00:44:48,567 --> 00:44:49,600
Oh I forgot.
736
00:44:50,500 --> 00:44:51,800
Mr. Tull.
737
00:44:51,933 --> 00:44:55,433
[soft instrumental music]
738
00:45:09,333 --> 00:45:12,467
2nd Lieutenant Walter
Daniel John Tull.
739
00:45:21,100 --> 00:45:22,933
Well done Officer Tull.
740
00:45:23,067 --> 00:45:23,900
Thank you sir.
741
00:45:26,267 --> 00:45:29,667
* Private Perks was a
funny little codger *
742
00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:34,200
* With a smile, a funny smile *
743
00:45:34,333 --> 00:45:36,467
* Five feet none, he's
an artful little dodger *
744
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:38,100
The world's going to change.
745
00:45:39,100 --> 00:45:41,167
You know that, don't you?
746
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:43,900
Hasn't it changed already?
747
00:45:44,067 --> 00:45:45,933
* He'll have his little joke *
748
00:45:46,067 --> 00:45:49,767
* He can't be suppressed *
749
00:45:49,900 --> 00:45:53,167
* All the other
fellows have to grin *
750
00:45:53,300 --> 00:45:57,667
* When he gets this
off his chest, hey *
751
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,100
* Pack up your troubles
in your old kit-bag *
752
00:46:01,233 --> 00:46:05,333
* And smile, smile, smile *
753
00:46:05,467 --> 00:46:09,067
* While you've a Lucifer
to light your fag *
754
00:46:09,167 --> 00:46:12,833
* Smile, boys,
that's the style *
755
00:46:12,967 --> 00:46:16,467
* What's the use of worrying *
756
00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:19,500
* It never was *
757
00:46:19,633 --> 00:46:21,100
Where are they sending you?
758
00:46:22,233 --> 00:46:24,067
[Walter] Back to
the front I suppose.
759
00:46:25,433 --> 00:46:26,633
I've been meaning to--
760
00:46:29,533 --> 00:46:31,867
Pa gave me this
just before he died.
761
00:46:32,067 --> 00:46:34,233
It was given to him by Grandpa.
762
00:46:34,367 --> 00:46:36,667
He would have wanted
you to have it now.
763
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:37,633
I know that.
764
00:46:41,367 --> 00:46:44,267
So that wherever you
are, you remember.
765
00:46:52,633 --> 00:46:54,067
Look how far we've come.
766
00:46:56,500 --> 00:46:57,333
Thanks Eddie.
767
00:47:03,833 --> 00:47:05,100
Now just don't
die on me brother.
768
00:47:05,233 --> 00:47:07,433
[laughing]
769
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,700
[soft instrumental music]
770
00:47:14,067 --> 00:47:15,900
[bombs exploding]
771
00:47:16,067 --> 00:47:17,833
All right lads, they're almost
through on the left flank.
772
00:47:17,967 --> 00:47:21,067
They're about to break
through the right.
773
00:47:21,133 --> 00:47:24,367
We hold them until our
last round of ammunition,
774
00:47:24,500 --> 00:47:25,933
not the last man.
775
00:47:27,067 --> 00:47:28,567
Let's show them
what we're made of!
776
00:47:28,700 --> 00:47:33,700
-[men chattering]
-[gunfire blaring]
777
00:47:35,967 --> 00:47:37,067
Go go go!
778
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:38,333
Go go go.
779
00:47:38,467 --> 00:47:39,933
Keep running.
780
00:47:40,067 --> 00:47:41,300
Go.
781
00:47:41,433 --> 00:47:44,267
[gunfire blaring]
782
00:47:47,900 --> 00:47:49,600
Come on, let's go.
783
00:47:49,733 --> 00:47:50,800
Get up or you die!
784
00:47:50,933 --> 00:47:51,967
Get up!
785
00:47:52,100 --> 00:47:53,233
Get moving!
786
00:47:53,367 --> 00:47:58,333
-[gunfire blaring]
-[men chattering]

00:48:03,300 --> 00:48:06,667
[soft instrumental music]
788
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,067
[knocking]
789
00:48:10,700 --> 00:48:11,933
[Soldier] Allow me to say
790
00:48:12,067 --> 00:48:14,233
how popular 2nd
Lieutenant Walter Tull was
791
00:48:14,367 --> 00:48:16,100
throughout the battalion.
792
00:48:16,233 --> 00:48:19,167
He was brave and conscientious.
793
00:48:19,300 --> 00:48:21,667
He'd been recommended
for the military cross
794
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:23,733
and had certainly earned it.
795
00:48:23,867 --> 00:48:26,467
The commanding officer had
every confidence in him
796
00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:28,067
and he was liked by his men.
797
00:48:29,367 --> 00:48:32,067
Now he has made the supreme
sacrifice Pro Patria
798
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,400
The battalion and company
have lost a faithful officer.
799
00:49:07,167 --> 00:49:10,267
[lively piano music]
800
00:49:15,267 --> 00:49:17,400
* We've watched you
playing cricket *
801
00:49:17,533 --> 00:49:19,467
* And every kind of game *
802
00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,633
* At football, golf and polo *
803
00:49:21,767 --> 00:49:23,900
* You men have made your name *
804
00:49:24,067 --> 00:49:26,267
* But now your
country calls you *
805
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:29,100
* To play your part in war *
806
00:49:29,233 --> 00:49:32,733
* And no matter
what befalls you *
807
00:49:32,867 --> 00:49:37,867
* We shall love
you all the more *
808
00:49:38,767 --> 00:49:40,667
* So come and join the forces *
809
00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:45,800
* As your fathers did before *
810
00:49:47,067 --> 00:49:50,067
* Oh, we don't
want to lose you *
811
00:49:50,167 --> 00:49:54,067
* But we think you ought to go *
812
00:49:54,167 --> 00:49:59,167
* For your king and your
country both need you so *
813
00:50:01,933 --> 00:50:05,433
* We shall want
you and miss you *
814
00:50:05,567 --> 00:50:09,400
* But with all our
might and main *
815
00:50:09,533 --> 00:50:14,533
* We shall cheer you,
thank you, bless you *
816
00:50:15,433 --> 00:50:19,767
* When you come home again *
817
00:50:19,900 --> 00:50:23,600
* Oh, we don't
want to lose you *
818
00:50:23,733 --> 00:50:27,433
* But we think you ought to go *
819
00:50:27,567 --> 00:50:31,800
* For your king
and your country *
820
00:50:31,933 --> 00:50:35,100
* Both need you so *
821
00:50:35,233 --> 00:50:39,000
* We shall want and miss you *
822
00:50:39,133 --> 00:50:43,200
* But with all our
might and main *
823
00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:46,633
* We shall cheer
you, thank you *
824
00:50:46,767 --> 00:50:49,933
* Bless you *
825
00:50:50,067 --> 00:50:53,600
* When you come home again *
