:09:00
I know you are all experienced soldiers,
but we have been sent here as...
:09:05
advisors.
:09:08
Their President Diem
is decent and God-fearin'.
:09:11
Our god, by the way.
:09:15
He's emphatic that this is a war between
the legitimate Vietnamese government...
:09:18
and their communist invaders.
:09:20
We all know that Red China and Moscow
are behind this.
:09:23
So we have every right to supply
and support these people, but...
:09:27
this is their fight
and they are in charge.
:09:31
Give 'em your best
because they have given us theirs.

:10:23
What the hell's
going on here, Major?
:10:26
Well-- This is just a little...
:10:29
positive thinking, really.
:10:30
Let me introduce the division
commander, Colonel Cao.
:10:33
Colonel.
:10:34
- Welcome, Colonel Vann.
- Thank you.
:10:36
Yesterday, we killed many, many V.C.,
but they take some of the body away.
:10:41
Still, I must send photo
to my president.
:10:43
It is good for morale, no?
:10:46
Come.
Let me show you my command.
:10:55
How many men did you say
you had attached to your division?
:10:57
- About 500.
- Impressive.
:10:59
We have a very strong
fighting force here.
