:45:00
Good. There you go. Right.
:45:04
What happened, Bus?
:45:06
I don't know.
He asked me about that movie.
:45:09
I told him I couldn't locate
any photographer's mates.
:45:12
Since he hadn't brought it up again,
I let it slide.
:45:14
He started yelling for his wife.
We couldn't stop him.
:45:17
All right. I'll take care of him.
:45:18
You see Admirals Healy and Hoyle out,
will you?
:45:20
Yes. Sure.
:45:22
- Charlie?
- Yes, sir.
:45:26
Charlie, I want you to make
that movie for me.
:45:29
I want you to take charge, Charlie.
:45:31
- I want you to make that movie for me.
- You just leave it to me, sir.
:45:43
We might as well see some of this film
before the Admiral comes.
:45:46
Combat engineers in training.
:45:48
This is a beach somewhere
on the west coast of Wales.
:45:51
It has been prepared to be an
exact duplicate of the beaches of France...
:45:55
where the invasion of Europe
will take place.
:45:57
Every foot has been mined.
:46:00
Three years of German ingenuity have
gone into making that beach impregnable.
:46:03
How will we get troops, tanks,
and weapons across that beach?
:46:07
That's the job of the
Navy Combat Demolition Engineers.
:46:10
How did I get into this, anyway?
:46:12
Here on this secret beach in Wales...
:46:14
the Navy engineers train
for their hazardous duty.
:46:18
This is only a dry run.
:46:20
On D-day these engineers...
:46:21
will be under heavy mortar
and artillery fire.
:46:26
Thanks a lot!
:46:28
Shut up, Charlie.
I'm trying to watch the picture.
:46:30
You won't like it, Marv. Got lousy reviews.
:46:33
Each squad must clear an alley
50 feet wide...
:46:36
for our troops to advance on the beaches.
:46:41
These American sailors
will actually be the first men...
:46:44
to assault Hitler's European bastion.
:46:47
That fact, Charlie, is exactly
what I want clearly recorded on film.
:46:51
I want you and your photographers...
:46:52
to get into the water
with those engineers.
:46:55
Film their activities
right up to the beaches.
:46:57
Would you like us to start the movie
from the beginning, sir?
