:59:54
- Take me to Col. Carter.
- Yes, sir.
:59:59
- And I came back as soon as I could, sir.
- All right, thank you, Barker.
1:00:02
- Make your report to Intelligence.
- Yes, sir.
1:00:08
Let's see. The action took place here,
and he was going this way to...
1:00:14
G-285906.
1:00:19
I hope he can make it.
1:00:20
- I'm sure he will.
- Yeah. I wish I were sure.
1:00:23
I just mean knowing Nelson,
I'm certain, that's all.
1:00:25
I'm sure he can make it
to G-285906 all right.
1:00:29
It's the rest of it I'm worried about.
1:00:31
The closer he gets to home
the thicker the Japs will be.
1:00:34
The Chindwin river
is lined with them like fleas.
1:00:36
- You sound as if he's going to walk out.
- How else do I get him out?
1:00:39
Why do you think I'm sweating it out?
1:00:41
There isn't another airfield between us
and Nelson that isn't swarming with Japs.
1:00:45
I can't get him out by plane.
He's got to walk out.
1:00:48
That's 150 miles.
1:00:50
Yeah, 150 miles with Japs
lining the whole way, waiting for him.
1:00:53
Oh, brother. This is a wonderful war.
1:00:55
Couldn't they cut an airstrip in the jungle?
1:00:57
With 36 men? It could take weeks.
1:00:59
The Japs
wouldn't leave them alone that long.
