:02:00
Attached to the 15th Regiment.
Didn't I never tell you that?

:02:02
No, Uncle Bill!
:02:04
Why, we was under fire
for 191 days straight.

:02:07
Yes, sir! And our regiment was decorated
with the Croix de Guerre.

:02:11
You don't say, Uncle Bill.
:02:13
Why, children, I remember when
we come back from France in 1918...

:02:16
the flags was flying,
people were cheering.

:02:48
- Boy, I'm looking out for us.
- What you got there?

:02:51
Book of telephone numbers
I won from Joe.

:02:53
Boy, I'm gonna promote us
a couple of gals...

:02:56
- for the ball tonight.
- How do you spell "us"?

:02:58
- "U.S."
- You leave off the "S" and worry about you.

:03:01
Every time you start to promoting,
that spells trouble.

:03:04
Here we go again.
:03:08
- Did you go to the ball that night?
- We sure did.

:03:11
- And did Gabe promote you a girl, Uncle Bill?
- No, he didn't...

:03:14
but he promoted everything else-
:03:16
a girl for himself,
a big limousine and a chauffeur.

:03:19
We sure went there in style.
:03:21
This must be General Pershing coming.
:03:22
This must be General Pershing coming.
:03:25
Can't be, because
General Pershing's a blond.

:03:29
Well, boy, here we are,
and I'm gonna Lindy Hop down.

:03:32
Boy, I'm gonna carry on. Come on, honey.
:03:36
Come back at 12:00, my man.
:03:38
Come on, honey.
:03:40
Yes, you.
:03:42
Cousin Jake,
what you want this time?

:03:44
What you keep on calling me for?
:03:46
I'm sorry, Gabe.
I can't come back and get you.

:03:49
- Why?
- The boss wants to use the car at 7:00.

:03:51
But, Cousin Jake,
how we gonna get home?

:03:53
How'd you get uptown
from the ship this morning?

:03:55
- Walked.
- Right there's your answer.
