How is it Kirby?

Aah. It stopped bleeding already.

It's working out to knock
me out of the away pool.

You gotta louse. Three inches under
and sent to Battalion aid.

Be good for a couple of days.

Hey. You never know. I go back
there maybe an infection will set in.
I can get sent all the way back to Paris.

Ah, Okay Kirby.

Next time a kraut grenade drops by,
you're on your own buddy.

Okay, okay. That's a deal.

Hey. Hey there.

Hey. What's happening?

Sergeant.

We have an important prisoner to
take to Battalion. Can you direct us?

It's not Battalion Lieutenant, but our
Company's down the road a ways.
Maybe you could drop him off there.

No soap Sarge.

Joker's a kraut colonel.
He goes right to the top.

Heh, And you right along
with him. Right? Huh.

I told you we been working
the wrong part of the line.

What outfit you from Corporal?

594th. We were just pulling
back when the, uh.

Alright Corporal.

Yes Sir.

Well, Lieutenant. Our platoon is down
the road about a quarter mile in a village.
Maybe, they can tell you where the Battalion is.

Thank you, Sergeant.

Hey, Lieutenant Sir. Uh. If you're going that
way maybe you could drop me at Platoon.

Say. I kinda got racked up back there and I.

Hey Kirby.

Whadda you say buddy, huh. A baa baa.

(German)

Ja, ja
English!

From now on, we speak only English.

(German)

Do you know where we are?

Yes. I know exactly where we are.

I just don't know where the stupid Americans
keep their Battalion Headquarters.

And it's not likely we'll
find it on a German map.

Well then, destroy it. Burn it. So what?

(German)

I'm sorry.

I'll remember to speak in English.

Yes. You do that, Lieutenant.

Sarge. What about that kraut, Colonel Ride.
And his's wounded GI's
gotta make it on his own.

I'm not kidding you, Littlejohn.
They got a manual someplace
that they ain't showed us.

Says the Colonel's got a ride.

Don't matter what happens to him or what
side he happens to be on. He got a ride.

BOOM

Okay, Mister. Just take it easy. Take it easy.

Huh?

You alright?

You must have hit a mine.

Too hot.

Colonel.

He's not dead.

Naw, not yet. Just give him
a couple minutes. He will be.

Hmph. Caught here.

Can't we get this thing off of him?

Oh. Once you go back
and get yourself another one, be just as easy.

Kirby. Shut up and give him a hand.

Hmph.

You too Littlejohn.

Hey. Uh.

Your Lieutenant's gonna be okay.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Lieutenant Comstock.

It's Corporal Kanger. You're alright.

Lieutenant Comstock?

Lieutenant Comstock. It's Corporal Kanger.

You're alright.

Lieutenant Comstock. It's Corporal Kanger.

What happened?

You hit a mine, Lieutenant.
The two of you were thrown clear.

The kraut wasn't so lucky.

Is he alive?

Yeah.

Uh.

Hey Sarge. Can you uh.

have your men fix up a litter?
Take that kraut back to Battalion?

Give him a hand here with a litter.

Thanks a lot Sarge.
This kraut joker means a lot to us.

Lost 2 men getting him.

Get him back to our platoon.
Notify Battalion Aid. They'll
send someone to look at him.

Yeah. Yeah. That's a good idea Sarge.

Hey. Take it easy with him, huh.

We'll get him back to Battalion?

Yup.

They ride.

They always ride.

How much longer can it be?

They realize how important this man is?

Got to get him back.

Battalion Aid sent up Captain Simms.
He's the best surgeon around.

No sense all of us
standing around doing nothing.

You and the corporal want some java?
We got a pot on down the way.

No coffee for me Lieutenant.

You'd like some, I'll be
glad to stick it out here.

Alright.

I think I will have some java.

Sergeant?

Show the Lieut. where he can
get himself a cup of coffee.

How do you feel Lieut?
Alright.

Where you from Lieut?
Saint Paul.

Ah. Twin City right?

Yeah. Gateway to the west.

Yeah. I had a buddy took basic
up by Duluth. It's camp uh.

I can't help you on that.
I'm ROTC myself in university.

You Minnesota?
Yeah.

Had some pretty good football
teams there just before the war.

Yeah. Baseball's my game.

New York Yankees Joe DiMaggio.

Chicago Cubs Gabby Hartnek.

Yeah.

Detroit Tigers.

Detroit Tigers.

You been up here too long, haven't you Lieut?

No.

I've been stationed behind the lines for awhile.

Back there the war is a game of

numbers and statistics without any meaning.

Now. The numbers have meaning.

Coffee's over here Lieut.

Okay, Sergeant. I could use a cup of java.

George.

Well. I think he's gonna be alright Corporal.

Can't be moved for awhile yet.

We gotta get him back to Battalion.

Well, I'm sorry. I can't authorize his
being moved. He's lost too much blood.

Captain,
They need that kraut back at Battalion.

The Colonel's important. They get him
to talk, it could save hundreds of lives.

Now. I appreciate your concern, Corporal.

But I'm sure any commendation you
may expect back at Battalion can
wait just a little while longer.

Yes Sir.

I did everything I could for him Lieut. Now,
right now, he needs about 4 hours rest.

I'll send an ambulance for him around

Oh, 3:30 say.

Whatever time that is.

15:30 hours.

I'll give you a lift anywhere Lieut?

I'd like to get back to Company.

Alright. Hop in.

Captain.

I got a little out of line Sir. I'm sorry.

It's alright.

Let's go.

4 hours before he can be moved.

He's alright. And he'll live.

Yes Lieut. He'll live.

Look. I am only concerned with the
successful completion of this mission.

Yes. Lieut.
Look. I am only concerned with the
successful completion of this mission.

Yes. Lieut.

We can't stand here for 4 hours.

No.

Why don't we join the uh.

I forgot. The officers can't fraternize.

Goodbye Officer.

I'll check too.

Get into the game Todd.

Dealer's choice. You want to get in?

Yeah. Just till the end of the war.

(chatter)

Alright. Let's deal the cards huh.

Come on. Let's go. Hubba hubba hubba.

Kirby. That's two deals.

Are you trying to squeeze an extra one?

No. This little deal doesn't
count if nobody opens it.

Mickey Mouse games.

You'll have us playing Old
Mother Goose before you're done.

How much you dropped?

You clowns haven't touched me yet.
Still working on my small bills.

Well. Stick around Corporal.
Maybe we'll work up to your stakes.

Ah. Don't get me wrong. I just made
a killing in a game back in my outfit.

Any game you can make a
killing in then I want to play in it.

I'll open.

How do I get transferred into your outfit?

Talk to the Lieut.
Three.

I'll fold friend.

Hey. What's with that Lieut. anyway?

Don't he know we're all fighting the same war.

What we want is a college kid. You know, ROTC.

I want to stamp that.

Ask him the meaning of the war and
he'll do 20 minutes. Up that five.

All blue.

Lieut. lectures and you bet into a pat hand.

What do you guys do for
a war without your outfit?

Look buddy. Don't, don't say nothing about
the Lieut. At least, not in front of me.

He pulled me out from a kraut
machine gun nest when all the
rest of our jokers had given up on me.

I don't know about your boy but
I like having my Lieut. close by.

Okay, okay. I get the point.

O-kay. Hubba hubba hubba.

Whadda you say we have a
little open on guts huh.

Hubba hubba hubba hubba.

Now I know what they mean
when they say blood money.

Just what kind of a killing did
you make at your outfit anyway?

Ha ha, guys. It's a

It's a 500 franc note with a little blood
on it. How would I know how it got there?

What do you think I do? Body snatch
it off a dead man or something huh?

You said it Mac. We didn't.

Come on. Come on. Let's get
the supers out of the game uh.

Fold.

I'm out.

Come on. Come on. What's the matter
with you guys? The money's good.

What happened?

The money they gave us.
One of the bills had some blood on it.

What did you do?

It threw me.

I said what I had to say.

We can't stand around out here. Let's go.

(German wheezing, labored breaths)

How's he doing buddy?

He's resting easy. Captain said he

Yeah. I know what the Capt. said.

(cries out in German)

Hey.

(German cries out in pain)

Yeah. Look. He's coming out of it now.

Hey, Corporal.

(German is whimpering in pain)

Knock it off.

All we're concerned with, Sgt., is getting this man
back to Battalion Headquarters as quickly
as possible and returning to our own outfit.

Now you can understand that.

Lieut. If you're so anxious to get back
to your outfit, you can go right now.

We'll see that the prisoner gets sent on.

(German prisoner yelling)

He's coming out of shock Sarge.

I don't think he'll make it back
to Battalion. That's a rough road.

Our CO was very specific about
getting this man back to Battalion.

And I'm responsible for doing that.

Now they have men there trained,
to interrogate ranking officers.

It'll still be there in 4 hours Lieut.

He should go now.

All I know is what the doctor told me.
He gets sent back to Battalion in 4 hours.

Well. Let's say he goes now?

Look Corporal.

If you want I could turn my back
and you can go find a vehicle.

And you and Lieut. can take
your prisoner anywhere you want.

Then it's your problem. It's your responsibility.

You could turn up at Battalion with
a dead body in a fancy uniform.

And you can do the explaining.

You sure have a lot of sensitivity
to these krauts Sarge. How do
you make out like that around here?

The war's over for him. I don't
see any point in kicking him to death.

Uh huh.

I'll go see if I can't scrounge up a vehicle.

Perhaps the Sgt. is right, Cpl.

It's only a few more hours
until they send the ambulance.

Yes Sir.

Our CO is a tough Joe.

A real tough Joe.

When he gives an order everybody jumps.

Sometimes we jump so fast
we forget our responsibilities.
You know what I mean Sergeant?

Sure Lieut.

Rauch, rauch.

Mmm. Ah mmm.

Rauch, huh.

I don't know. Is it pass cigarette?

Yeah. Rauch. It's a

part of the verb to smoke.

That, and 4 years of college,
wins him a gold bar Sarge.

Pfft. What'da you say we forget
about the lectures for awhile Lieut.
Go on, get a little chow.

Keep an eye on our boy, Sarge.

We'll be back for him.

You don't understand.

You have got to be flexible.

Be able to change your
plans when you have to.

We'll think of something.

The plans must be changed.

The Colonel was supposed to be
sacrificed as a prisoner, not killed.

We'll find another method of
getting through to Battalion.

You're inhuman.

A machine.

A machine with a certain
facility for American words and no more.

Rauchen.

You know Lieut. You may be right.

Maybe the

Group leaders thought of me that way.

Inhuman.

Let me tell you something
about us in-humans.

We all have one thing in common.

An instinct for survival.

Now. One more slip Lieut.,
and I may have to kill you.

Just so this saddled can survive.

Sarge. Krauts.

Up there, Lieut.

Nice shot at that window.

It looks pretty safe.

Come. Come up and I'll cover you.

You'll cover me?
What happens if you have to shoot?

Do you mean that man back there.

I couldn't get a clear shot at him.

Uh huh.

Sergeant saw you. Is that
what you're going to tell him?

Yes.

Yes uh. I couldn't get a clear shot.

Not one. Not one clean shot.
Not the whole time.

Well. I can explain it.

Cause my gun jammed.

Sure Lieut.

There were many reasons why
I couldn't shoot that man.

There will be no more mistakes. You'll see.
They have no reason to suspect.

Go ahead. I'll cover you.

Alright.

(German)

Bang Bang Bang

It was just a probing action Lieut.

They were just as anxious
to get out as we were.

Any casualties?

No casualties.

You know Lieut. I been wondering about
those two men that came with the kraut Colonel.

I don't know. There's something off
somewhere. I been wondering about it.

Saunders?

I thought you said there weren't any casualties.

I didn't think there were any.

He's a good man.

No.

Thank you.

You two must have been
together a long time now?

Yeah. Long enough.

Sgt. What about that ambulance?

It'll be here.

Where did you say he was from?

Uh. Lieut., I mean.

I didn't say.

From out west.

Out west huh?

I'm from out west. Whereabouts?

You ever been in Jersey City, Sgt.?

Well, back there, you're either from
New York, or you're from out west.

Who knows? From Seattle to Wisconsin.

That's all you know about him huh.
Just that he was from

Out west huh.

He was a good man though.

Hey Sarge. Maybe Lieut. ought to try
to reach those jokers up at Battalion.

See if they haven't forgotten about
our prize package in there uh.

Okay. Keep an eye out here,
and I'll check inside.

Yeah, okay Sarge. Hubba hubba.

Yeah.. Hubba hubba.

Same?

Can I talk to you a minute Lieut?

Yeah. Sure.

It's about those two soldiers from the 594th.

I'd like you to call Battalion on them.

Call Battalion?

Yes Sir. To see if the 594th
is carrying them on their roster.

Look, I'm pretty busy. Let's play
games tomorrow Saunders.

There's no playing games, Lieut.

Those two. They just don't add up.

Lieut.

I think they're krauts.

I've got reasons, not big one's,
but I've got a lot of them.

Well. Suppose you start with number one.

What about the way they're trying to get
this wounded colonel back to Battalion?

They scream every delay.

They want him there back alive.

Lieut. It just doesn't add up.
A four hour delay?

I talked to Lt. Comstock before he was
killed and I don't know what it is Lieut.,
but there's something strange about him.

A lot of 2nd Lieutenants are strange.

Besides, Kanger fits.

Does he, Lieut? Does he really fit?
Just another GI?

He's always trying to make a point. He's always
pushing, like that hubba hubba talk.

Lieut. Supposing he is a kraut?

And he gets back to Battalion.
He can cause a lot of damage.

He can knock off the top brass.
Blow up the message center.

And the further back he goes,
the more damage he can do.

They need that man back at Battalion.

Now. I can't delay him anymore
because of your...feelings.

Look. Lieutenant.
That's all Sergeant.

Yes Sir.

Yaaaa!

Woo hoo hoo.

(men yelling)

Man. You ought to retire
before you kill someone.

Hey Cooper. How'd you let yourself
get this close to the action?

Eh. So this is war. You know something?

I'm sure glad you're up here. Makes
me feel warm and safe back in my
sack at night just knowing you're here.

Ha ha ha ha. AAwwww.

Hey. I volunteered for this mission.

Yeahh.

And when the colonel found
out about it, He says:

If you get through alright, you got yourself
a couple of days of rest and rehabilitation.

Awww!

Now if you'll excuse me
gentleman, I have things to do.

Hey, georgeous.
Cooper.
Yeah.

My name's Kanger, 594th.
I'll be going back with you.

Oh. It's always a pleasure to meet
one of our fighting men Corporal.

I'll give you a hand with the litter.
Yeah. Come on. Come on.

How's about it buddy.
Is our colonel ready to go?

You have to wait, Cpl.
There's gonna be a delay.

Delay!

Waiting for a call from Battalion.

Oh, come on Lieut.

We wait, Cpl.

Yes Sir.

Oh. How you doing Doc?

I'm alright. How you doing, Doctor?

Ohh. Hey, I was just wondering if this, uh,

This fella gonna be alright enough to answer
a few questions when I get him back, your honor?

I don't know.

I've done all I can.
Maybe back at Battalion..

He, he seems to be doin' just fine. You know.

Eh. He doesn't seem to respond
like he should. I don't know?

Not a young man.

Yeah. Don't you worry none.
He's gonna get back alright.

I done lost 3 this week already.
That's my limit.

Roughest thing in the world. Isn't it?

Just sitting around. Waiting.

Yeah. It sure is Sarge.

That's the army for ya.

Just like in England.
Waiting for D-day. You know?

Yeah. That was rough.

Whereabouts were you stationed in England?

No place in particular. They just
kept moving us around, you know?

Hey Sarge. You got a, got a smoke?

Oh, yeah. Sure.

Here.

Thanks.

Seems to me like uh,

594th was stationed in the
same camp with us once.

Right outside of Sheffield.

Sheffield?
Uh huh.

Yeah. That must have been
before I joined them.

Before you joined them? You mean,
you didn't come over with them?

Yeah. I came over later. As a replacement.

Sheffield huh? What's it like out there?
How long were you there?

Quite awhile.

How were the girls? Were they friendly?

They knew we were real friendly in Lux....

Wait a minute Sgt.

I stayed out for a reason.

You see. Ever since I met you the day, I

been watching everything about you.
And you strike me as a Joe that

doesn't really ever have any kicks.

You're not married?

Engaged?

You got a steady girl?

What's your kick Sgt.?

(phone rings)

Hanley.

Yes Sir.

I've got it Sir.

Yes Sir. Out.

Take off.

Yes Sir.

Well. Come on you guys. Let's go, huh.

Always pleasant doing business with you, Sir.

Comstock. David E. Lieutenant.
Kanger. Arnold. Corporal.

Both carried on the roster of the 594th.

You satisfied, Sgt.?

German: Ai. Ai.

So long. Doc, eh.

Hey hey Doc. You know something?

Looks like you could use a little
rest and rehabilitation yourself.

Alright. I'll drive and you stay here.

Know it nice. He'll heal in a hurry.

Hey. Bring back some comic books next time.

(breathing with difficulty)

(German)

(Cannon fire)

Krauts.

Sounds like 88's.

(shelling is continuous)

Alright. Out.

88s Lieut.

Yeah. On our flank. Looks like they're
gonna push it to 2nd Battalion a little bit.

One more thing.

S2 just checked. Comstock and Kanger.

They were reported
missing in action 5 days ago.

I was right.

What happened?

Have a look at him.
Looks like he's choking or something.

Oh, I ain't no doctor. I'm a medic.

Moving out.

What's the word Sarge?

The krauts are moving up their 88s. They're
gonna be sure to break through around the 39th.

We'll be alright for awhile.

I don't mean about that.
I mean about that Corporal Kanger.

Nothing. No sign of him at Battalion yet.

What just doesn't seem right,
is those krauts wearing our uniform.

Well. You get so you expect almost anything but..

Yeah. It's like they wasn't fighting according
to rules. Is that what you mean?

Yeah, kind of.

There aren't any rules in war Littlejohn.

Still plenty of krauts out there in their
own uniform. Let's worry about them.

How do you suppose they got
hold of those uniforms, Kirby?

POWs?

I don't know. Where did they get
that money with all the blood on it?

Must have got it the same way I guess.

Anything new on Kanger yet Sarge?
No.

I just can't get used to it. Sitting there
a whole game across from that kraut.

He could have thrown a grenade
in our cot anytime he felt like it.

That ambulance still hasn't reached Battalion.

I'm sending you back.
Why?

You can identify Kanger on sight. Also, you
made contact with the three of them first.

Headquarters will want to
question you about it.

Find out their technique.
They're expecting a lot more from Trusoon.

The krauts are concentrating on a
line with us to the north. So the
road ahead ought to be pretty clear.

Scrounge yourself up a jeep.

Right.

End of the line buddy.

I have to get to Battalion.

Forget it.
There's a bridge out up ahead.

It's out huh?
Yeah.

What about that road over
there? Can I swing around?

No dice. It's full of potholes.

An ambulance just broke a wheel
before it went 50 yards.

An ambulance.
Huh.

Still there?
I said it broke a wheel, Didn't I?

(gunfire)

Is that them or us?

Them. I hear there's kraut
patrols moving up.

Hey.

Hey. What's all the fuss?

A guy named Kanger.

It's Cooper.

Wearing Kanger's tags.

Look pal. You better tell me
what's going on here.

Krauts have been sneaking through
the lines. Fifty of them, I heard.

Is he one of them?

No, but the guy who killed him is.

Was he driving the ambulance?

No.

Another guy. Thinner face.

Did you talk to him after
the ambulance piled up?

No. By the time I got here,
he was running up that hill.

Hey.

Hey. There's krauts moving
up on that flank.

Bang.

Hubba hubba Sergeant.

Huh!

Pick up your sidearm Sgt.
Throw it over there.

Hubba hubba.

You know I spent 3 weeks in an
American prison camp just
to learn words like that.

It was easy. No strain.

They believed me.
Just like all of you.

What's that tell ya?

Vermont.

Capital, Montpellier, eh.

A little while it'll be dark, and uh.

PFC Vito Condes will make his way
back through the American lines.

It's too bad he's only a PFC.
I was kind on making Sergeant today.

Don't sweat though Sergeant.

You hit it lucky.

There's a German patrol
making way up the hill.

Better turn you over to them.

A Sergeant's always good to
take back for interrogation.

But believe me, Sergeant.

If I wasn't such a good soldier,
I'd be wearing your stripes tonight.

Sure, I believe you.

Of course you believe me.
All Americans believe.

Heh heh.

The great American sucker.

Make 'em cry and you can sell
them anything you've got for sale.
I know. I lived over there for 10 years.

They tried to get me with a...
sentimental emotionalism.

I wouldn't buy it.
I never forgot who I was.

I never forgot, what I was worth.

Good for you.

There.

(German)

They're not suckers.

They doubt. They question.

(German)

I told them who I was.

(German)

I told them I have
a prisoner, to come up.

They're coming up.

(German, warning)

Blam

Bang

You missed him.

See any others?

Hold your fire.

I'm an American.

My name is Saunders.

Sergeant.

I'm with the 361st.

I'm wounded.

I can't make it any..
I can't make it any further.

Where you from in the states?

From Illinois.

What's the capital of Illinois?

Springfield. Springfield.

Give us your full name,
rank and serial number.

We'll check you out.

I can't...

I can't make it.

I can't make it.

Suckers.
