Officer: Colonel Gilfillan
will address the men.
:02:24
Aye, aye, sir.
:02:30
Boatswain:
Now hear this.
:02:31
Now hear this.
:02:33
Gilfillan: Marines,
Company B, First Battalion,
:02:35
this is Colonel Gilfillan.
:02:38
We're gonna be landing on
a Jap-held island before long.
:02:40
A couple of things
I've said to you before
:02:42
I think are worth repeating.
:02:45
When you hit that beach,
:02:46
there's gonna be a lot of
noise and smoke and confusion.
:02:49
You're gonna have
to keep your eyes
:02:51
on your squad leaders
and platoon leaders.
:02:53
I don't want any lost
little lambs runnin' around.
:02:55
You know where lambs end up.
:02:57
And let's get it straight,
this is a big island.
:02:59
There's a lot about it
we don't know yet,
:03:01
and a lot
we're gonna have to find out
:03:02
from theJaps themselves.
:03:03
We used to say that the only
good Jap was a dead Jap.
:03:08
I'll remind you
that that's changed.
:03:11
From here on in,
:03:13
a good Jap is also a Jap
prisoner who tells us things.
:03:18
Now, this is an order.
:03:20
Whenever possible,
you will take prisoners.
:03:22
I say again,
you will take prisoners.
:03:25
Some of us were together
at Guadalcanal
:03:28
and again at Tarawa.
:03:30
I was proud to be with you.
:03:31
I know it will be
the same after this.
:03:35
Believe me,
:03:37
this trip is necessary.
:03:41
All hands, good luck.
:03:43
I'll see you on the beach.
:03:47
Wouldn't you know,
I'd get a stinkin' cold.
:03:52
What's the matter,
Whitney?
:03:55
I don't like the dreams
I've been having.
:03:57
Ah, don't let it
worry you.
:03:58
I've landed
on 2 Jap islands,
