fact events have been recreated and

certain names and characters have been

determination that shaped nations and

changed history forever that's part

underground to help us are you better

block I promised him everything but key

to the White House with trained well

contribution to the war effort we turn

[Music]

hello Lord haw-haw here speaking to you

from Berlin just one week after your

costly assault on the coast of France

I'm sure you heard the good news but

unlike the bloated heiress to class

Churchill and the Jew Roosevelt his

promises are always kept I know how

thrilled you must be to watch the first

of our farms arriving in London without

warning what a lovely surprise on a fine

June evening

it does no good to shoot them down they

have their pilots and you can't tell

where they're going to land because we

really don't know ourselves

all we know is their land on You they're

a battle of loves London roll out the

battle we'll have a battle of

[Music]

now Molly and sissy can't move troops

are still stalled in front of Kahn

they're supposed to take Kahn on d-day

that was two weeks ago how cocky molly

was maybe pushing inland the 30 miles

Betty posted a British tanks knock about

a bit we're the ones who get knocked

about cash Lee's are heavier by the hour

20,000 did the last report things aren't

any better for Bradley's troops near

Omaha Beach there's timing by German

tanks and guns Brad doesn't take

sherbert soon will be shoved off the

continent matches will have their second

Dunkirk but this time there may be no

coming back

neither portal enter supply our

artificial harbors are being capsized by

the storms and those buzz bombs are

killing civilians all over Louisville

but by the way I televisions reports the

Nazis have developed a much worse weapon

v2 rocket maybe 10 times a TNT of the

buzz bomb if that's true they'll flatten

all of London in a few weeks it's true

you're worse than the Blitz casualties

in the hundreds of thousands you really

think Hitler would use weapons like that

against civilians you were any thinking

wouldn't Mickey hold that frame

[Music]

beetle

come on Camry I'll be at his

headquarters in the morning and tell

Bradley I'll be on all the heartbeats

tomorrow afternoon tell them both I'm

gonna ask some questions and they better

have some damn good answers

[Music]

general Montgomery ordered me to give

you a hearty welcome on behalf of His

Majesty's voltage Freddy where in the

hell is Imani cold away unfortunately he

knew I was coming he was married

following your orders not to let your

visit even from his military duties he's

absolutely right when you expect him to

return let's respect to be along shortly

the meantime would you care to inspect

our object let's get on to Bradley they

know fortress at Omaha Beach sorry the

thing no have a money time that entrance

beautiful thank you and you will

appreciate it you did so well yourselves

talk privately I've got a lot to say I'm

afraid headquarters tend somewhat

crowded supposing we walk into the

orchard just the careful of the cow

droppings

I need a warning I had conversations

with you before then leave-in spider

water male hood general Montgomery has a

very high opinion of General Eisenhower

from what I've heard general Montgomery

has a very high opinion of general

Montgomery he's gonna need it don't give

me any excuses this is a stalemate

you've been sitting here with that movie

for over a week the Germans are blocking

this front with everything they've got

artillery tanks infantry now look here

Ike I'm simply not going to attack until

I have enough men to be certain of

victory you want to steal some from

Bradley why not he doesn't know what to

do with him talk about stalemate I

visited his sector he scarcely moved up

the beach

Bradley should sit tight shut up and be

given only enough supplies for his bare

subsistence he has no reserves behind

the front morale is low by his officers

were delighted when I issue some farm

orders what at Bradley you'll kiss the

hem of your garment oh he would have

done oh boy but I was walking on water

at the time now what I propose is that

you give me complete and permanent

command of all allied ground forces and

France then I can concentrate the main

force on this front and drive straight

for Berlin that's not the battle

planning you know where it should be

well what do you want my hat too sorry

oh boy

it's too small money the worst thing

that could happen to an amphibious force

is to get stalled that's what's happened

to us

are you supposed to be halfway through

Belgium now I'm not sitting here waiting

for my job sorry oh boy but you know I

don't allow smoking at my headquarters

well sorry oh boy I do it mine

[Music]

don't take it's a lot of casualties I

think we've tried to breakout time and

again the Nazis are hanging on to

Cherbourg like it was Berlin

what's holding up your advance Brad

everything man weapons Rommel Bonnie

thinks you ought to be removed I know

you came around here one day like the

Lord come to clean the temple started

giving orders to some of my officers you

think he's right well if he was you've

known me long enough to know that I'd be

the first event you know we've

underestimated the German strength

we should have taken share but by the

fifth day said it'll be closer to the

50th you don't have that much time

London is going under from the buzz

bombs you've got to break out now better

get George Patton in these Third Army

tanks on the road to Germany better

knock out the launching pads or else

we're gonna lose London why don't we get

money to take some of the risks to take

some of the pressure off this front I

will I'll get both of your more men and

weapons or this is the beginning of a

different kind of end that I never

imagined well it's gonna take a while

like another channel today according to

our meteorologist that wind is the edge

of a gale that's gonna hit this coast

we're a storm in 20 years and it's due

to hit right in the channel tomorrow

morning we're not gonna be able to

unload one damn ship it may lose a few

tomorrow would have been the date of the

invasion if I'd called it off for June

6th Rommel would have been standing here

instead of us waiting

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

I'll cut you men hear those sirens you

better get out of the shelter take

everybody else with you it's the buzz

bomb I'm not gonna hide every time I

hear one of those Germans talking a lot

of meat in those sausages at least a ton

of TNT well go ahead because I can't

afford to spend half my time and the

storm cellar well you know damn well I'm

not gonna go if you're not look at you

two trying to run brave each other if

you've been through as many bombings as

I have you well who can eat now I can't

because there's no point in the panic

you're not immortal

you dick tramping through your stupid

minefields all right

[Music]

[Music]

unmilitary ripen habit like no it isn't

just childish did you see during the

Blitz you can do something you could

shoot is nice things they just haven't

German engine sputtering away inside if

you do knock one down it explodes and

kills you and if you don't it switches

itself off and then is that dreadful

silence before it comes away to me

I don't think I'd mind dying too awfully

much but I would hate to be killed by a

thing you'll never die kay I have a

feeling if all of England were wiped

away you'd still be standing on the

beach at Dover daring that bastard hit

her to come over so you could spit in

his eye I would too

[Applause]

invitation was to both of us I'm sorry I

don't like cocktail parties oh come on

guilty I could brazen it out there's

nothing to it just give him a big smile

easy for you to say no just the escort I

mean I'm a prize exhibit I think this is

the first time I've ever seen you scared

you are I'm afraid I'd be terrified of

Mamie I don't think I've done anything

awesome enough to feel that we're here

but I'm still scared all I want to do

right now is boat for it the worst thing

you can do for Ike right now is to run

and hide it'll only encourage a lot of

vicious talk in this town this town is

built on vicious talk I guess my

hopeless romance can't survive the

attitude for a moment okay

you're crying you know I mean I hate

women who cry and I hate men from

Indiana who call himself Tex

you care that much

I'll go I couldn't not

but if I've shot down over a liver

canopy you will find my wounds right

yeah I don't know it might be kind of

let you bleed to death

why don't you just help yourself dear

huh mrs. as now I'm trying to recover

from the shock of this extraordinary

food and cream real cream from real

flowers I suppose then yes I believe the

warden Park Hotel deals and authentic

cream you want to try some sure they've

got crab meat here too Oh

Texan from Indiana I speak with

simply must meet ice lady driver you are

his driver aren't you yes I'm also the

general secretary oh how convenient you

Italy yes I've heard general eisenhower

speak of your husband quite often this

is mr. field well we certainly talk of

you quite a lot there's so much to talk

about I'm not okay why don't we go I

daresay you'll soon be writing it on the

laboratory walls won't you a martini it

may interest you to know that my husband

is a Major General in the regular army

while Dwight Eisenhower

although a charming intelligent man

still holds the permanent rank of only

chicken colonel indeed the Italian

campaign has gone dreadfully slowly

hasn't it

I've heard your husband's name mentioned

round supreme headquarters as the

chicken general a double martini shut up

Tex my dear miss summers be if I were

Mamie I throw you right out of here

Ike's world now do you think you could

fit into it would you want to

[Music]

I hope this little romance put them all

on my side - she is a lovely woman Mamie

and so right for him i lo with being a

good sport about I but I suppose there

must be I'll simply fade away but what

hurts most is that he'll probably be too

busy to notice well we put a military

jargon there have attacked up the way it

is just read it back to me for general

Marshall eyes only we're to Helen gone

in Brittany and slicing them up in

Normandy American troops under Bradley

and Patton have broken through on two

fronts and are on their way to Germany

I almost mentioned my bet with Churchill

at the world be over my Christmas I

still put it in know it's going so well

why tempt fate

no superstitious you may be but so is

winning that's why bet me we've

destroyed all bridges over the Seine and

they're moving toward Paris I'm setting

up my forward headquarters tomorrow in

France at Tony a I recommend Bradley for

permanent Major General we can't do

anything for Patton he's run off the end

of the tactical maps and I can't keep up

with him he's using Michelin roadmaps

what do you think people about redoing

no I'd leave it the way it is the

reality comes through besides with

military jargon the end of the world had

come across as a requisition for

paperclips pre-bent

size standard box contained in daily

courier no senders special thanks

[Applause]

welcome back from Washington Colonel Lee

Thank You Mickey it's a relief to get

out of the combat zone and back here to

safety okay hey juicy gossip while we've

been away well there's been a lot of

loose talk about me and a corporal and

the wax all of it true we're gonna be

married married oh that's that's lovely

the kick I do mean it really lovely come

in tell if you old scotch son of a gun

where did you come from he's been a

prisoner of war for six months I was

sure no one but me remembered that his

sentence was up today Tex and I picked

him up on the way back from the airport

after Washington it was so nice to see a

friendly face mr. Kay worried about how

about me but I've been in the land of

real milk and real honey I I was worried

about you coming back we heard that one

of those awful V twos landed ya here

just a chance hit yes

that's what makes it so awful and with

all those dreadful bombs falling all

over London my old unit needs drivers

desperately I've applied for transfer

back what's that all about I need a

driver too

I'm sure you can find another to shout

at what do I need another driver to

shout out for why K so suddenly

something happened in the States didn't

you expect it to okay what are you

talking about

very strange I'm not out of love but the

thought of being without you doesn't

hurt quite so much anymore

[Music]

okay yes tell every laughter wait

okay how many times do I have to tell

you that I need you two or three dozen

more would help why the devil did you

send me away why did you have to ship me

to the colonies and throw me to the

savages but once I got a good look at

what will become of me after this war

thousand Helen Worcester fields pointing

their fingers at me are you gonna let

some washing dishes go Sam drive you

away all right then if you want me to

stay around in spite of that then you

must give me something tangible to hold

on to some profile what proof do you

well I don't know I don't know do

something face the same reality I have

to face I was the one on the fire hey

will you listen to me for a moment now I

have something to tell Howard God's sake

don't try to say anything sweet well you

know I don't know how

maybe this will say it for me I've

arranged for you to join the American

army

oh good lord right in character the tank

corps I suppose how romantic

okay I'm gonna be commissioned a

lieutenant in the wax so you can stay

with me till the end of this war you

know very well I refuse to join the

American army without giving up one iota

of your precious British citizenship

join the American army and still remain

a British subject

I believe that's impossible general

nothing's impossible is by order of the

President of the United States the only

member of the United States Women's Army

Corps in history we're still owes

allegiance to a foreign flag I do not

consider the flag of the British Empire

to be foreign what the president didn't

mean it that what do you neither do I

what will people say any immortal words

of Rhett Butler Franklin lieutenant

Sommersby I don't give a damn the City

of Light free you once more on August

22nd under general Eisenhower's orders

General de Gaulle's Free French forces

were allowed to be the first to enter

Paris I told Mike not to let the Free

French tanks in first solid the Gaul

naturally took all the credit and don't

you think it deserved it mr. Burton that

was for the French nation to decide

American and Allied forces joining the

fighting and soon Paris was liberated

then followed a demonstration of

happiness and tears

perhaps unequaled in this or any war

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

generalize in our ordered the u.s. 28

division on its way to battle north of

Paris the detour in full battle dress

down lashon's Alesi so they could join

the parade into goals honor before

entering the attack in progress against

the German army American combat troops

marching in tribute were a proof of the

Solidarity between the United States and

Charles de Gaulle that has guaranteed

his position as the sole leader of his

country that's enough

that newsreel is being shown all over

America right now Ike has gone over my

head and let de Gaulle grab control in

France over my distinct opposition who's

commander in chief around here you are

mr. president

but Eisenhower given his word did he

cool by what right that was an act of

rank insubordination don't you think I

should be removed immediately

mr. president eisenhower informed me

that he was acting only because of

military necessity I would suggest that

you reprimand him severely but that's

all that's all a reprimand yes sir

general Marshall I am outraged I am also

a politician Mike Eisenhower doesn't

realize it but he's become the GIS

general and the most popular figure in

the free world

Thank You Ryan I am recommending to

Congress that he be given a fifth star

in the title of general of the army I

have a tough election coming up

[Laughter]

[Music]

[Music]

Mickey hope he knows what he's getting

into

I'll say this boy me doesn't even look

scared

penetration of our minds in Belgium

German border wars both are penetrating

their lines face don't not come to get

ready and then he'll have to call Emily

Tedder finally dad got the notches on

the ropes

I'd say bright the answers are too busy

have to come here I'll go to them

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Laughter]

[Music]

I had never seen such confusion the

Nazis are using us equipment and

uniforms they got ahold of a bunch of

Krauts probably escaped from Brooklyn

speaking perfect English who speaks

perfect English in Brooklyn you know

what I mean

Alda there they they're cutting

telephone lines and turning signs around

spooking whole divisions shoving a bulge

into our line yeah that's what big

newspaper chaps already started to cool

it The Bachelor of the but this is no

pen T&E game Mike and if he was throwing

all of his Panzer divisions into the pot

all of them bred oh I can't give you an

exact picture my communications a

shattered whole units have been wiped

out they've driven away between the

eighth and ninth armies over a hundred

thousand men are cut off

Arthur my flying conditions are simply

impossible nothing can get off the

ground in this weather field bloody

helpless this is no time to feel

helpless it's time to attack we've got

to stabilize our lines first leave

Bastogne maybe half a dozen other

pockets with cutoff units they might not

be able to hold out oh damn it they'll

have to hold out maybe we should have

figured hit or what uh try an insane

gamble like this maybe I shoulda figured

now that he's done it let's take

advantage

hip areas open the door for us to

Germany he's thrown his only reserves

out in the open if we strike back this

could be the last big battle you're damn

right Ike you give me back the supplies

in the gasoline who gave Montgomery and

third army will beat their Nazi tails

Thank You George I can always depend on

you for the calm reasonable approach

Brad you've got a hit with whatever you

got left but your 8th to 9th armies must

go to Montgomery I'll never get him back

Ike dead or alive knock it off

this is an allied operation now Arthur

somehow someway you've got to get planes

up in this soup now the key to it all is

right here in the mess hall it controls

all the major roads in central Belgium

you must hole out of this at all costs

one hundred and first Airborne it's

trying to hold it in right the generals

are got them completely surrounded they

can't hang on much longer I know that's

where you come in George like Bastogne

is 130 miles from here I mean that's one

hell of a long hike you give me air

support and now get through to I won't

have anything in the air for at least 48

hours it's too late you're gonna have to

do without air support George I'm gonna

have to force March your men and send

them into battle without food maybe

without sleep now will they do it for

you

yeah Third Army will do it they hate my

guts

but they'll do it you know I'm the son

of a pitcher but at least I'm their son

hit your mind to George I know like this

is the one idea

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

sir this Justin Grimm best on German

commanders informed general McAuliffe

that the hundred and first Airborne is

completely surrounded

take us all away okay the same American

generals who were surprised not

maneuvered in this battle I'll be

brutally frank general Bradley should be

removed immediately I'll be brutally

frank he won't be that's foolish

abilities to run the advance into

Germany Foyle I don't need anybody to

lead any advance for me that's supposed

to be my job yes Roz wasn't it hey fuck

you confuse delay division money this is

not solving anything now what I need to

win this war is for us to work together

what you need is a single massive Swift

assault across the German border which I

will be happy to lead your assault so

Swift no one's been able see it for

these past few days you haven't moved

one inch toward the water when I'm ready

I will no no you'll move when I'm ready

marshall says frankly Montillo betting

on a sticky wicket nonsense written must

replace me

Field Marshal Brooke or general

Alexander I put my foot on it haven't I

costs our tanks are across the Rhine

planning out into the Nazi Heartland

come on the frankfurt have fallen and

russian troops have taken vienna the

guns of doom are sounding for the Third

Reich

[Applause]

it's been a long long time since an

Eisenhower returned to Germany

[Music]

there is simply no way to describe what

I have just seen around us

Preston evil-smelling Marvel's men and

boys who reached out to touch up

generals and use men alike they were

dressed in rags and the remnants of

uniforms they were too weak to cheers

but even those who would soon be

liberated by death were smiling at us

with their eyes we've proceeded on to a

yard where bodies were arranged to grow

sometimes and right

sometimes naked they were thin and very

white

it appeared that most of the men and

boys had died of starvation over in the

green fields beyond well-fed Germans

were calmly plowing their fields for the

spring planting

we looked then at the butcher hopes on

which inmates were hung as punishment

for being alive if your stomachs have

been turned by this rather mild

description it's alright it's time for

the world to know the truth about the

Nazis in two hours I want every German

in this town starting with a

Burgermeister the March of this camp no

one is to attorneys face I never once

said they didn't know it made me ashamed

my name is Eisenhower

[Music]

[Applause]

are you sure everything you've seen your

lieutenant what are you doing here

yeah I was listening to the BBC under

President Roosevelt died last night

[Music]

at Warm Springs in Georgia

which is not fair is it

I'd have done a better job that she sort

of surrendered in time for him to see it

at least he didn't have to see this

he used to call me child I never told

him that I always thought of him as

father

[Music]

I know what you mean

erwin rommel has taken place if there

has blown his brains out into his bunker

in Berlin have no doughnuts has taken

over the German government and sent

General Alfred Jodl

to negotiate a surrender of a

generalised an hour general yodel says

German communications are in bad shape

and he requests a two-day delay before

signing the surrender

why now they're stalling so they can

shift more their troops to the west and

surrender to us instead of the Russians

Nazis are scared to death of him well

they should be they've murdered millions

of Russian civilians but if we allow the

Nazis in to dictate where and how

they'll surrender never admit they were

completely beaten No Deal

what do you want me to tell general

yodel you tell yodel but unless he

surrenders immediately I'm closing the

Western Front to German soldiers and

they'll all have to surrender the tender

mercies of marshal Zhukov and the Red

Army

if yodel agrees to sign immediately

would you be present no not until after

he's signed then bring him to my office

I don't intend to speak to one Nazi

officer until they admit total defeat on

German soil

I can think of no man more deserving

than General Dwight D Eisner to be

granted the freedom of London

[Applause]

Hey

this great city that never failed for a

moment in the long and autumns days and

in the long night stock fell is other

tuners upon which hell some of the most

awesome decisions of this terrible Wars

most crucial moments IP we should give

the most cordial testimony in our good

wishes for everything that may happen to

him in

lord mayor of the city ulis soul

symbolizing our gratitude and admiration

General Eisenhower you are now a citizen

of blood

[Applause]

humility must always be the portion of

any man who receives a claim earned in

blood of his followers and sacrificing

his friends this feeling of humility

cannot erase it of course my great pride

in being tendered the freedom of London

absolutely

who who the husks for hours he's going

to become part British I don't want him

to miss a single word

we've been more than two years in war

when Americans and numbers begin

swarming into your company most believe

that the tails are pretty sacrifice had

been exactly

all such complacency could not endure a

single casual tour through your scarred

streets and avenues we saw your women

serving quietly and efficiently and

almost every kind of war effort

even with flak batteries gradually we

grew closer together until we became

true partners in war my most cherished

hope then after Japan joins the Nazis in

utter defeat

neither my country nor yours need ever

again summon its sons and daughters from

their peaceful pursuits to face the

tragedies of battle but a fact important

for both of us to remember neither

London nor Abilene sisters under the

skin will sell her birthright for

physical safety her liberty or mere

existence

[Applause]

excuse me general I'm afraid you missed

Harry you're due at mansion house in 30

minutes for the lunch and the Lord

Mayor's getting up now that I'm a

Londoner I suppose it'll be fish and

chips well you could do worse

excuse me sorry my slave driver says I

have to run by Domino's

I like Admiral

now remember tomorrow you go back to

Frankfort to occupation headquarters for

a day and then it's off to Paris where

they will probably give you the Xiang

City Day for your keychain and then

you'll fly to Washington alone yes

I've always know whatever I want to know

while I very secretly let myself pretend

there I'm a damn good told you but I'm

not quite that good okay I ought to say

and even if I did it wouldn't be enough

well I don't you just say

said you're sorry that might be enough

I'm sorry gave me nothing yes I I don't

know

and and it helps really did I do this

I'm not doing this right at all I did so

on to come out right yes I did rehearse

it a thousand times

somehow suddenly it's here

still I don't suppose anyone ever

actually suffocated under a rug even a

big historical one

I don't understand

[Music]

someone said to me once when cigarette
