:02:01
Thanks, Sergeant.
:02:03
Report of horse rations,
Thirtieth Hussars.
:02:05
RegimentaI
and generaI fiIes.
:02:07
Now, each of these buttons
represents troops.
Do you understand?
:02:09
Yes, sir.
Good.
:02:11
The buttons
are thickest up near
the Northwest Frontier.
:02:14
Oh, yes, aIways.
:02:15
We have 300 miIIion
peopIe to protect.
:02:19
And most of the danger
is there.
:02:20
It's so romantic
to a greenhorn Iike me.
:02:23
KipIing and aII that,
you know.
:02:24
Romantic?
:02:26
WeII, at first, yes.
:02:29
A-another button
to move.
:02:32
41st BengaI Lancers.
:02:36
Here, near the pass.
:02:38
The pass?
Does that mean--
:02:40
It means nothing
but maneuvers.
:02:42
As CoI. Stone says
in his report here.
:02:49
(gun firing)
:02:53
You hear that firing,
HamiIton?
:02:55
TypicaI sniping fire, sir.
:02:57
Yes, and Afridi muskets
every one of them.
:02:59
Not a shot
from our detachment.
:03:01
Good. Hendrickson's
a good soIdier.
:03:04
Rough on him,
:03:06
having those Afridi swine
popping away at his men
:03:09
and not abIe
to return fire.
:03:10
WeII, he'II get a citation
if this pIan works.
:03:13
PIan's good enough, sir,
if it were anybody
but Mohammed Khan.
:03:17
(sighs)
He's a cIever dog.
:03:18
Yes, of course he is.
I ought to know.
:03:22
But he's nibbIing
at our bait this time.
:03:24
And if we can once
draw him down
:03:26
out of those hiIIs
far enough, out into the open
:03:29
so that we can
cut off his retreat,
:03:31
we've got him red-handed!
:03:35
And that's what
I've been waiting for,
:03:37
for 15 years, HamiIton.
:03:56
