From 1942 to 1945, Sam Byrne, a farm boy,

shared
who was drafted into the military,

wrote his personal account
of the war in letters home.

This story was
inspired by these letters.

Dear Ma, don't
worry. I'm doing well.

I'm not allowed to
tell you where we are.

The first special forces
unit had its first major battle.

We had to climb a mountain just

to get there, where we could fight.

No other unit believed
that that would be possible.

And it was cold.

The first time I aimed my

rifle at a man was difficult.

Just aim at a German.
Don't shoot without orders!

I really don't want to kill anyone. I keep

telling myself that I'm here, because it is my duty.

Because Dad
expects me that I fight.

Mon ami, he's not a man, just a

gray uniform. Just a gray uniform.

I didn't even have time
thinking about what I was doing.

There was so much shooting...

Kill or be killed.

Kill or my friends would die.

I hate it.

Lie on the floor.

This is the weapon
that my dad gave me.

One day this will be
your weapon, okay?

Always point your gun
in a safe direction, Sam.

-What is a safe direction?
-I do not know.

Where you can't hurt anyone.

Always keep your gun
pointed away from people.

I never want to shoot anyone.

Well, that's good.

Keep your gun away from
people and it won't happen.

What you see here is the rear sight,
and that is the grain.

Always focus on the
grain and make sure

that your target is
exactly in the middle. OK?

All right, then...

Never pull the trigger with
the crook of your finger,

take the tip instead,
then you'll be much more precise, okay?

Try this out.

Do you notice how the gun
jumps around and doesn't stay still?

Yes, I can't get my
sights on the can.

So, you let all your air out.

When you reach the point, when the air is gone,

you aim and pull the trigger, with your fingertip.

Now let's go.

I did it!

-Now don't get cocky.
-Excuse me.

Listen, remember, what I told you:

concentrate, breathe, pull the trigger.

Now I want you to hit the rest of

the cans as quickly as possible.

-What are you saying now?
-Good shot, Sam.

You will become a good sniper one day.

Maybe you'll get a chance at this,

which I never was in the Great War.

What were you then?

Well, I had to take care of
the horses, the whole war.

I never got the chance
to really fight.

One day you'll get the chance
to fight in the next war.

But you'll think differently,

when they shoot at
you and your buddies!

I just wish you didn't have to go.

My number was drawn.
It's my duty to go.

I'll serve like Dad,
in the Great War.

We are so proud of you, Sam,
right Ma?

You will be a good soldier.

Don't worry, ma.
Everything will be fine.

The war will soon be over,
and I'm back home,

before you can say Jack Robinson.

Write to me all.

I write to you every day.

-Bye, my son.
-Bye.

The mail was there. What from Sam!

Oh, okay.

OK. "Dear family,
I just want to

let you know that
I have completed

basic training
and been recruited

into a new unit: the first special unit.

I'm going to Paratrooper training

sent and whatever they ask of me.

The camp is all the way
over in Helena, Montana.

If other units don't know what

to do next, they'll come for us.

Well, Dad, I think I'll definitely

not take care of the horses.

I'll tell you more,
when I am there,

but that's all, what I
know at the moment."

It's okay, everything's fine.

Ma, you forgot that part.

"Oh, I get 50 bucks extra

for the paratrooper unit.

" Wow, 50 bucks extra!

-I want to do that too when I go.
-Me too.

Everything will be fine.

Fifty bucks!

That's good.

Name soldier!

Private Samuel Byrne, sir.

Pvt. Byrne, you
will address me as

Master Sergeant Sanders, and never as Sir.

This is a completely
different house number.

Yes, Master Sergeant Sanders.

Byrne, you are in the Second Regiment,
Second Company, Barracks 385.

Surname!

Ernest Chipchase, Canadian.

You... have
something on your lip.

I'm Jean Paul Sabourin.

As you hear, I'm French
Canadian, from Montreal, Quebec.

I also only arrived today.

That's a tongue twister.

I'll just call you Frenchy.

C'est la vie.

I'm Sam Byrne from Wyoming.

Am I in the wrong
barracks? I'm not Canadian.

Here's another proud
Canadian, Private Jack Knight.

I'm pleased.

What's that smell?
Are you a cowboy?

I'm a rancher.

But yes, I work with
livestock and ride a horse.

Whatever you say, cowboy!

It still takes, until you
catch up with us Canadians.

We were told five minutes ago
that we will arrive in five minutes.

Pack your things and let's go.

This is Captain Pat O'Neill.

He's our best man when it
comes to hand-to-hand combat.

Listen carefully. It
will save your life!

That's right, guys, the
enemy intends to kill you.

This means that if you want to

survive, you have to
disable his weapon.

You have to incapacitate
him first, and quickly!

What's your name, young man?

Byrne, sir.

An Irish name. Come to me.

I want to know people's
names which I furnish.

Don't worry, I don't
bite, unless I have to.

So... grab the dummy pistol and

come towards me, ready to kill.

Come on, cowboy. Here we go!

Don't worry, guys.
He will come to soon.

Remember and be aware

if you use this or
another technique of mine,

will be your enemy if he survives,
come back to you,

fighting and ready to kill.

Are you okay, young Byrne?

Can you breathe well?
Can you speak?

Yes, sir.

I was probably right.

One of those fighting Irish.
This soldier has guts!

Grace, you really should come.

You are going to have a lot of fun.
Dance, laugh, have a good time.

Robin to go to this bar,
means no fun to me.

Drunk soldiers,
lumberjacks, miners,

everyone thinks
they could grab all the girls.

I imagine fun differently.

Well I know you like to dance,
and you can do that well there.

That will be fun!

Gentlemen! We should do that,
which is why we are here.

Let's find some women!

If you take too long,
someone will beat you to it,

and I'd really rather dance with you than

with some lumberjack
or miner over there.

I'm not that good of a dancer.

But you can teach
me If you want.

I learn quickly.

I'm Grace Ford.
What's your name?

I'm Sam. Sam Byrne from Wyoming.

I've never danced
like that before.

Then hello Sam
Byrne from Wyoming.

That's the swing.
Look at my feet.

Step back, one, two, three.

Then on the other side.

This is pretty simple. Try it!

It will work out.

Look at that. You
learn really quickly.

Let's have fun.

And then he says... Then he says, "But

Grace, you can teach me, I learn quickly."

Everyone compete! Take your
empty backpacks and go outside.

Are you deaf?
Let's go! Let's go!

Just because it's night doesn't
mean that your day is over.

Double shift, let's go
men, Here we go! Come on!

Fill your backpacks with stones.

That is sick!

I just hope he doesn't let
us carry them on his back.

Your equipment hasn't arrived yet,

so we'll use these stones until then.

Come on, more
stones, more stones!

Let's go! Let's
go! Come on, men!

Here we go! This is not
Sunday walk through the forest.

My eighty-year-old
grandmother runs faster than you.

Come on, let's go, come on!

Hey, come on, get
up! Come on, come on!

Let him!

Those who drop out are sent
back to where they came from.

Where should we dump
the stones Master Sergeant?

These are your stones, Byrne.

Take good care of her.
They live with you now.

They even sleep with
you! Take a shower.

Be at breakfast in 15
minutes and don't be late!

-Hey.
-Hey, Jones.

Do you know where
they're going to send us?

No idea. What's
wrong with you, Knight?

I believe we are
the secret suicide

squad tasked with taking out Hitler.

Where did you hear that, Knight?

Oh, word gets around.

Suicide Squad.

Where do you pick
up something like that...

Turn, step, jump!
Turn, step, jump!

Let's go, let's go!

Turn, step, jump!
Let's go, let's go!

Turn, step, jump!

Turn, step, jump!
Turn, step, and jump!

Not bad for a first try.

We'll do this again and
again, until it becomes a habit.

Goes to lunch. Enjoys it!

This will be your last
hot meal for a while.

Last night's hike
was just to warm up.

After lunch, we go on another

beautiful hike in the mountains.

Master Sergeant,
we didn't sleep.

The enemy won't let
you sleep, and me neither.

Do you find that hard?

Just wait until you're lying in the mud,

haven't eaten or
slept for days, bullets

whizzing past your head,
Mortars exploding

everywhere while all
you hear are the screams

of the fallen soldiers, stop complaining,
understood?

-Yes, Master Sergeant.
-Do you understand me?

-Yes, Master Sergeant!
-Good.

Remember: I walked with

you, and I will do it again.

And I slept just as much

as you, namely not at all.

March off!

The sun is rising and
we have a long way to go.

If you don't move,
let's miss breakfast!

Come on, let's go!

Aren't you hungry? Let's
go, let's go! Come on!

Ok, so: "I just got
a letter from Ma

and it seems I have
a new sister, Carol.

It's hard to believe.

I hope I can come
home and see her."

Okay, he should
definitely come home!

“We went for a hike and came

back after a night and a day.

Me and my men were
way ahead of the rest and

went into a farmhouse and
called a taxi to pick us up.

We knew if we didn't do
anything, we miss the food.

We were faster than the
others and ate really well."

Sounds like Sam wants
nothing but fun and good food.

Don't know why everyone's
worried, that I get in touch.

Let's see, wait there's more.

"I thought they would
catch us in our prank

and I would get lucky
and be sent back to my

unit, but the master
sergeant never said anything."

Get lucky and get sent back?

What does this
have to do with luck?

Hey, I think Our barrack is the only one in

which all twelve original
comrades still sleep.

No washcloths here! Not yet.

Oh, oh, we're in trouble.
I think we got caught.

No washcloths here?

We will see, what happens tomorrow

morning when you do your two jumps.

Then we know who
has what it takes.

The mail was there. Knight.

Chipchase. Sab-owr, Sab-or...

-Frenchy.
-Oui.

Jones and Byrne.

And that's it for today.
Tomorrow morning, be ready.

Sam, it seems we
didn't get caught.

Tomorrow is the day that
you are looking forward to.

Fifty bucks!

I still don't understand why you

Americans 50 bucks more and we don't.

-Damn bureaucrats.
-Oh la la...

I'm thrilled you were
selected for the Special Forces.

To be a paratrooper, is
something to be proud of.

Be the best paratrooper,
that they have.

Your father.

-Six minutes!
-Six minutes!

-Get ready!
-Get ready!

Stands up!

Get ready to jump!

And off!

Come on!

Come on! Come on!

Come on!

Jump! Come on! Jump!

This was a lot
easier than I thought.

I did, what you said, Chipchase.

I didn't look. I just jumped.

With a little help
from a friend.

The Jumpmaster was
about to pull you out.

If I hadn't pushed you, you
would be with the sissies now.

As I was coming in to land, I had to

remember that you could easily get

shot down while you're hanging in the air.

You're an easy target.

I thought the same.
Look at the men up there.

That's easy prey.

The Germans could pluck
them straight from the sky.

There is no hiding place.

Maybe we should have
chickened out like the others.

Back to our regular units.

This is a suicide
mission, mon Dieu!

Not me.

I could never tell my
dad that I chickened out.

Dead or alive, I'll
stay in the squad.

He wrote me. I can't
disappoint him now.

Come on, we have to
get to our second jump!

She won't dance with you.

You don't have
to be such a killjoy.

The cowboy's hat is turned off.

We were awarded.
I'm a paratrooper now.

I'm proud of you.

But I hope you won't be
sent to war anytime soon.

From what you hear,
it won't take long now.

Come on.

This knife was specifically
designed for this unit.

It was designed to
kill. Fast and quiet.

Corporal Byrne?

-Yes, sir.
-Come here.

Good man.

It's best to use the
knife, to slit throats.

That kills your opponent,
before he can scream.

Just pull your head to the side, stabs all the

way through, pulls it
forward and cuts the throat.

Another possibility is,
stab directly into the skull.

This knife goes straight
through his ribs and into his heart.

And do you see that? This
is called the skull crusher.

Yes, you know
what to do with it.

Keep your knives sharp!

Okay, pair up! Practices!

Hey, where's Matthews?

Hey buddy! Our
showers are full. May we?

Is free. Go ahead.

Grace, you look great.

Thanks.

You look good too.

Thanks.

Do you know "Hold Me"

Now look at the crooner.

That's incredible!

One two three four!
One two three four...

Get down! High! Get down! High! Get down!

Gentlemen, today is the
last day of your training.

Tomorrow we go to war.

Where are you going, Master Sergeant?

It's going to war.

It's going to a place
where others have tried

and have failed,
and that's why they come for us.

Keep going!

Sam! Sam!

What a lovely surprise
to see you, Grace!

But I don't want to say goodbye.

Me neither,

but I had to tell you
how much I will miss you.

Put this in your pocket and read it,
when you're gone.

I have to go.

The train departs.

Dearest Sam,

I never thought I would
meet someone like you.

You are friendly, a true gentleman.

And yet strong when it needs to be.

And you've become such a good dancer.

I will write to you often.

Please write me back,
so I know you're okay.

Our goal is to

to drive the Germans out of the
area around Mount La Difensa,

so that we can travel
safely on the road to Rome.

How do we get to them?

You are at the top of the mountain,

and the only
way up is this cliff.

Every unit that
tried has failed.

With all due respect to these men, they

have no mountaineering
experience. We do.

We make it.

You have to climb this
rock at night and in fog.

The Germans left the area
completely undefended.

You are sure that no
one can climb the rock.

I guess, they know
nothing about unity.

If you meet Germans,
before we start the attack,

fights in close combat and stays calm.

We have to take them by surprise.
Van Ausdale, Fenton.

You climb to the top,
anchor the ropes and help

to bring the soldiers up
without the Krauts noticing.

That won't take long.

Two ropes come down,
you can start climbing,

without us having to call,
this way we stay calm.

Still questions?
Good luck, men. Let's go.

Let's surprise some Krauts.

Keep calm.

Aim at them, but don't shoot,
until I give the signal.

Use your knives if you must.

Just aim at a German.

Mon ami, he is not a man,
just a gray uniform.

Just a gray uniform.

Don't shoot until you have the order.

I thought we had them all.

They come from that ridge over there.

-Take cover!
-Down! Get down!

Fire mortars at the saddle
Towards Remetanea.

We will be attacked by mortars from the ridge
Fired at towards the Camino.

We are being shot at by both.
So, fire towards Remetanea.

Remetanea, then.

We have to give the British time
to take out Camino.

If they can't do it, we can.

What do you say to that? No blood!

I was saved by the
rock hard sugar cubes,

that I have in my bag.

You are a blessed man, mon ami.

The angels are watching over you.

-Everything okay?
-I've never felt better.

I'm going down to get supplies.

Well, we'll need that.

Think about the training.
Uses German weapons.

Okay, cowboy.

Sam, you saved my life.

You did what you had
to do. You had to do it.

Look at his face.

He's still a child!
I killed a child!

No, Sam. He wanted to kill me.

I killed a child I
can not believe it!

It's not your fault, that
the Germans use children.

-I have killed him!
-Come on, we have to go.

I may not wake
up for a few days.

I may not wake up
until the next war.

I'm going to be in this
fart bag for a long time.

Dearest Sam, how
much I miss you.

I hope You
are fine.

You promised me,
to get home safely.

Wherever you go,
whatever you do, you

should know that I
long for your return,

when we can dance and
walk in the moonlight again.

Boys, I hope you're
in the holiday spirit.

We will spend Christmas
on the battlefield.

Who would have
thought! Joyeux noël!

We are supply packers
and stretcher bearers

until the unit captures
the objective, Hill 720.

Just don't die
on Christmas.

When that happens, your family
will To hate Christmas forever.

I can't die on
Christmas.

Otherwise, my
mother will kill me.

Nobody dies at
Christmas, of course.

Collect your stretchers and
supply packs from the quartermaster.

Come on, hurry up!

Paramedic!

Paramedic!

Paramedic!

Come on! Come on!

Sam!

Sam?! Sam!

Sam?

What do you say to that!

It's happened again!

No blood.

Angel, mon ami. Angel.

Here we go. Let's get him.

OK.

Get down! Take cover!
Take cover! Come on!

Master Sergeant!

Don't worry, Master Sergeant.

We'll send a medic
who takes good care of you.

They saved us.
You can't die.

We'll take you to a paramedic.

I won't make it.

I want you both to make it.
Survived.

The people of Italy need you.

Hold on, Master Sergeant.
You have to do it!

Clear the road to Rome.

Kiss an Italian girl for me.

No no!

No! You can't die, no!

We have to stay
strong, fight and survive.

If we don't do that,
he'll die in vain.

Stay strong, mon
ami, stay strong.

We can't leave him here.
We have to get him down.

Paramedic! Paramedic!
My friend fell! Over here!

I can see what's going on.

Open your shirt, I
need to see your skin.

I can't... I can...

Are you sick?

Yes, I feel sick.
Weak. Will I Die?

-Is your urine a strange color?
-Very dark.

I heard when your urine

turns black, you will die soon.

No, that just means your

schnitzel will dry
out and fall off.

Never.

Really?

The jeep is here,
we'll take you with us.

You come to the hospital
with advanced jaundice.

So bad?

It is not good, that's why
you come to the hospital.

You should have said something
sooner. Let's hope it's not too late.

Let's hope it's pretty There are nurses in the

hospital and not just ugly
paramedics like this guy.

Stay with me, mon ami.

-What is your problem?
-Nothing.

I'm just here because of
my friend. I'm doing well.

He is very sick. He will
remain in the hospital.

When he's feeling
better, send him back.

When he gets
better? How bad is it?

Usually the boys survive, but he

should have said
something sooner

to have a better chance. Sorry.

Hey Ma, a letter from Sam.

OK.

-He's in the hospital.
-What?

-You better read it, Robert.
-All right.

"Dear family, they
sent me to the hospital.

I have been there for 3
weeks and have jaundice.

They say I almost died, when I arrived, but I

was supposed to be back
at my unit in a day or two.

I'll certainly be happy when this

war is over and
the killing stops.

You know, I've been around for so long,
what dad was like in the last world war.

In a risky maneuver,
Allied armies

landed behind the Germans
Winter

defense line to break the stalemate.

A few days after the battle,
The first special unit

begins aggressive night
attacks on the surrounding

German positions to stir up
fear and push the enemy back.

ANZIO, ITALY FEBRUARY 1944 Hey,

nice to have you
back from the hospital.

Yellow turns black, right?

Yes, nice to be back.

The order is to sneak in, to cut their throats and

disappear before they realize what happened, clear?

Okay, here we go.

I surrender! I
surrender! Do not kill me.

Hands up! Hands up!

OK. Come on, come on!

He surrendered because of

what happened to his comrades.

Yes... If I saw a German doing

that to you and Chipchase, I

would shoot instead of surrendering.

Well, who knows he
is young and afraid.

-Jean is right.
-Perhaps...

But be careful. I don't
trust any Germans.

Wow, wow!

I don't want to kill you. I
hope you don't want to kill me.

He pissed his pants in fear.

I can smell it from here.

You have a chance to live.

I do not want to kill
you, unless I have to.

Don't make me do it.

I... I'm just like you.
I do not wanna die.

I don't want to kill.

I just want to go home and
sleep with beautiful women.

Hey Hans, you're okay. We
have a lot in common, you and me.

We have to extradite you,

but I heard they treat you well.

From where do you know my name?

Hans? Really now?

Well, that's what I call all of you
Germans. Do you speak our language?

My father was a professor
at Harvard, in Boston.

Go Red Sox!

That doesn't exist...

They will interrogate you.

Tell them everything you
know and they will treat you well.

I hate war.

I don't hate anyone so
much, that I would kill him.

I just hate war.

Yeah, then blame
that asshole Hitler.

If it weren't for him,
we would

all be at home sleeping with

beautiful women instead of killing each other.

Dear Grace, I'm fine

and safe, as you wanted it.

It seems, as if this
war would soon be over.

At least I hope so.

Frenchy says we should
all meet after the war.

I wished I was with you, in your

arms, I would dance and have fun.

I do not deserve you.

I am so happy, for
giving me your photo.

I always have it with
me. Love to you, Sam.

Thanks, Chaps.

I am General
Frederick's translator.

Did you capture the
German yesterday?

Yes we have got that.

I'm supposed to tell you
what we found in his diary.

Something about beautiful women?

This is his last entry:

"The men in the sackclothes

attacked at night and
were suddenly everywhere.

You never know,
where the black devils,

the Black Devils."

We are not the only ones
who are scared as hell.

That's reassuring.

Yes, the prisoner
was very afraid of us.

That's why he surrendered.
He thought we would...

Hey tell me, what would
you say to a soldier,

to get him to give up as
peacefully as possible?

Surrender and live.

Surrender and live?

Surrender and live.

I understand what you're trying to do.

You'll have a knife at your throat,
if I say that.

They say "I give up",
if they surrender.

"I give up". Good luck.

The one we brought in, Hans,

was still a child. Like my little brother.

I don't want to kill children.

Taking prisoners is
better than killing children.

Sack pants?

I actually always thought
they were really chic.

It's been a long time,
that it was cloudless.

Look at the stars.

This makes me think about God.

Sometimes I ask myself,
whose side God is on.

I do not know much.

I'm just a cowboy from Wyoming,

who has never seen
the inside of a church.

But I know, that God
does not take sides in war.

The killing is wrong,
from both sides.

He's fucking mad at all of us.

If there is a God,
he is not happy.

Sam...

I have to ask you
a serious question.

You want to talk
about dying, right?

I wrote a letter to my family.

You should do that too.

When I die, you
just have to send it.

I will do the same for you.

It's here, in my pocket.

You're not dying, so forget it.

The letter will never be read.

Please, mon ami,
this is serious.

Promise me.

I promise.

But you better not
die. Already forgotten?

We have angels watching over us.

No, these are your
angels, mon ami.

I just have to stay close to you,
then maybe they can help me too.

"Ma, you wrote in your letter that I

would probably like
to have Ras here.

No I do not want
this. Anyone but him

or anyone else in the family."

That's not fair.
He can, but I can't?

Just read on.

"Just a few lines to tell you,
that I'm fine

and I received your
letter and the sage bush.

I know how Dad felt,

when he got his
sage bush abroad.

It gives you the feeling
to be a little closer to home.

It's hard to write that
on the stock of my rifle,

but it's the only flat one,
that I can find.

Well, Ras, between you
and me and the trench I sit in,

I don't know,
like me from some situations

I came out alive again.

I was hit and should
have died three times,

but Frenchy says,
that the angels protect me.

I believe,
I have aged twenty years.

There are only two pastors here,

one Catholic and one Protestant,

So I go to the Protestant
church twice a week."

Wow, I never would have thought that.

War has the ability to
to bring a man to God.

Because he can meet
his Creator at any time.

You fight against an elite
Canadian-American force.

They are treacherous,
ruthless and clever.

You can't let up.

The first soldier or group,
who captures one of these men

receives a 10-day vacation.

We were instructed to use these.

If you kill a German, stick it to his helmet, uniform

or somewhere, where it will definitely be seen.

What the hell does it say?

"The worst is yet to come."

The Colonel, I mean General

Frederick says it's to demoralize them.

This is our symbol,
the Black Devils.

That's what the
prisoner called us Hans.

Who is more afraid? Us or them?

The card immediately
makes me feel better.

Surrender and live!

I give up.

I give up.

You didn't mention how many
prisoners you want to take.

Nobody dies tonight.

Every German we
find we take prisoner.

Let's find more.

Tonight we make
German mothers happy.

Surrender and live!

Black devils, we give up.

We give up!

Time to take the
prisoners to headquarters.

Give them a leg up. Let's go.

Advance!

What? I can speak
a little German.

I had it at school.

You heard him.
Advance! Let's go!

German prisoners for you.

These are not a few.

They have surrendered.

Well done, men.

Looks like this, Like
your plan worked, Byrne.

You surrendered without any

resistance, thanks to your lesson.

If you had the choice, To

surrender or die, what would you do?

Sergeant Byrne, General
Frederick asked me to let

you know that he wants to
meet with you about a mission.

I'll leave immediately.

General Frederick wants
that we turn off house 14.

There are snipers there, who
kill anyone who comes near.

How is the situation?

There are snipers in
or around House 14.

Nobody has been
able to turn them off yet.

The area is completely open, without

cover, so they can see you coming.

-That's suicide.
-No, no, it's not.

We just need to get close enough

for Sniper Sam to
get these guys here.

We're moving forward this
evening. Let's eat something.

They are really well hidden.

I don't see a muzzle
flash anywhere.

There! Top window,
all the way inside.

The next shot we all fire.

One of us should catch him.

No!

Sam, Sam, thank you,
that you are my friend.

No no no no no.

Hey, you're not going to die.
Hang in there, you'll be fine.

I'm sorry, mon ami.
I feel life leaving me.

You, you... You have to live.

Go to Rome.

Kiss a beautiful
Italian woman for me.

Send my letter.

No, Frenchy! Frenchy! Frenchy!

He didn't fire back.

I think we got him.

Time to go back.

I see him. Get down!

You asked for it!
Either you or me!

He's mine! Stop shooting.
He's mine!

-I think he's dead.
-I want to make sure.

None of our men will die again.

He's going to hell, now!

I hope Frenchy and
Chipchase saw this.

I'm wearing Frenchy.
You have to carry Chipchase.

Sergeant Byrne...
Jean was a good man.

I know you were buddies.

These are Frenchy's things.
Would you give this to his family?

Naturally.

I promised him

to send this to his family,
if something happens,

but that German ruined it.

His family shouldn't see this.

You're probably right.

I made hot chocolate.

With real chocolate and real milk.

Come with me.
Come.

Sorry, I don't have any sugar.

I have my
Lucky sugar cubes saved.

Ah yes?

You saved my life.

Thanks.

How do you feel?

Frenchy was my best friend,
and Chipchase came right after.

The Bible says:

The greatest love,
that a person can have is that,

that he lays down
his life for his friends.

How do you feel about that,
what did you have to do?

Well, the thing is, Chaps.

I... I thought
I couldn't kill anyone.

But then I did it, a few times.

I just killed the sniper,

who caught my friends.

And guess what?

It feels good.

I'm a killer,

and I will do it again and again,

until this war is
over or until I die.

You saved lives.

They stopped him
to kill more of our men.

You need to get this out of your head.

Don't make it too difficult for yourself.

It's not that easy, Chaps.
I face this every day.

I kill and others
kill and are killed.

It's nothing,
what you can get out of your head.

Maybe one day, but not today.

Thanks.

That was good.

The German armed
forces are retreating.

After more than three months
Combat operations near Anzio

urges the first
Special unit to the north.

And help clear the way to Rome.

Dearest Grace,

I wish I could say
that the war will soon be over.

But it doesn't look like it.

Every day men die around me,
but I survive.

I don't know,
what makes me so special.

Your letters make me happy.

I read them over and over again,

but I'm not the same person anymore
with whom you danced.

I don't know if I'll ever
be that person again.

This war has made me a murderer.

You deserve
better.

I hope you find someone
that makes you happy.

I hope I'll find out why
all this is happening.

I
hope.
