1:39:00
I say no more.
1:39:02
The rule of war states
I give only my name and rank.

1:39:07
Major Kenji Matsuoda.
1:39:09
No more.
1:39:10
This is important,
Lieutenant.

1:39:17
Dickerman, tell the colonel
we stumbled onto something.

1:39:20
One of the Nip privates
is a major. Hurry it up.

1:39:23
Yes, sir.
1:39:24
What did you
find out?

1:39:25
The old man told me that
Matsuoda lived with him

1:39:27
and his son a year ago
on their plantation.

1:39:29
He treated them well,
but after a while

1:39:30
he moved them out, and
the army built a tunnel

1:39:32
from the house
for wolf-tails.

1:39:34
What are wolf-tails?
1:39:35
Rockets. Lieutenant,
don't you remember

1:39:37
what I said to you in the
cave about grooved wheels?

1:39:39
They're using that tunnel
to transport rockets.

1:39:42
Yeah, you're right.
1:39:43
That's why we couldn't
see the rail line from the air.

1:39:46
Where's the house?
1:39:47
He said it's on
a sugar plantation.

1:39:49
Wait a minute. There was
that sugar cane field

1:39:51
you found
on Captain Makino's map.

1:39:52
That's right.
1:39:54
Where are they? Let me
take a look at this, Bill.

1:39:56
Let's see.
1:39:57
There it is,
and there's the house.

1:39:58
But how can we be sure
it's his house?

1:40:00
He says that when he stands
in front of his house,

1:40:03
there's water on his left.
1:40:04
Here we are...water.
It's a lake.

1:40:06
It's in front of and to one
side of the ranch house.

1:40:08
And on the right
some hills and woods.

1:40:10
Here we are. Hills
and woods to the right.

1:40:12
And he says that in front
of his house there's a hill

1:40:14
some distance away with a road
on the other side.

1:40:16
There's the hill.
There's the road. Right.

1:40:17
Bill, those rockets
are somewhere near

1:40:19
that ranch house.
1:40:20
Now work the overlay
around there, quick!

1:40:22
Right.
1:40:23
Boy, this climate is sure
death on a man's pleasures.

1:40:26
All right, Anderson.
Let's have a look at that Nip.

1:40:28
It's no use, Colonel.
I've been at him.

1:40:30
He won't talk.
1:40:31
What have we got
here?

1:40:33
Found a Jap overlay.
If we match it right,

1:40:35
the rockets'll
be pinpointed.

1:40:36
That'll take all day.
We've got 45 minutes.

1:40:42
Will you wipe
my forehead?

1:40:45
Wasn't there
a General Sherman or somebody

1:40:47
who once made
a vulgar comment on war?

1:40:49
Yeah. He said ""war is hell.""
And what did he know about it?

1:40:52
That eight-ball
never left the states.

1:40:55
Colonel, if we don't
get it in time,

1:40:58
can't we postpone
h-hour?

1:40:59
With 20,000 men
jumping off in 41 minutes?
