I'll say that again:
They were ordered to do it.
1:05:07
In the real world, or here in
Washington, that doesn't mean much.
1:05:13
But if you're a marine
in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba,
1:05:19
you follow orders,
or you pack your bags.
1:05:22
Dawson and Downey are sitting here
because they did their job.
1:05:34
- Call the first witness.
- We call Mr. R.C. McGuire.
1:05:45
Raise your right hand, please.
1:05:47
Will you tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth?
1:05:53
Yes.
1:05:56
State your name and occupation.
1:05:59

1:06:04
Did you receive a Ietter from PFC
Santiago on the 3rd of September?
1:06:10
Yes. It said that a member of the
unit had shot across the fenceline.
1:06:17
Was he named?
1:06:19
No. I told Colonel Jessep that l
would be coming down to investigate.
1:06:26
Only one sentry
had a bullet missing.
1:06:31
- Who was that?
- Corporal Harold Dawson.
1:06:38
- What did Dawson say about this?
- That he was engaged by the enemy.
1:06:45
- But you don't believe him?
- I'ts not...
1:06:48
Why was Dawson never charged?
1:06:54
- There wasn't enough evidence.
- Thank you.
