Now you all want to change your minds
because there's blood and guts on TV.

1:36:07
Well, I don't have that luxury.
1:36:09
I've got 50,000 people in Kontum...
1:36:12
whose lives are on the line
because of us.

1:36:15
They can't change their minds,
can they?

1:36:18
I gave those people my word...
1:36:21
and I'm gonna do everything
I can to save them.

1:36:25
Let's go.
1:36:31
n"Kontum, June 1972"
1:36:48
- Colonel Ba.
- Welcome, sir.

1:36:50
Frank Drummond.
I thought they retired you.

1:36:52
Retirement seems to be sitting pretty
good with you. Thanks for requesting me.

1:36:55
- My pleasure.
- Major Darryl Jones, sir.

1:36:57
Major Jones. Finally I got
a fighting team I can be proud of.

1:37:01
- Well, gentlemen, let's get to work.
- This way.

1:37:08
Ten hut!
1:37:10
Gentlemen, senior advisor.
1:37:13
At ease, men.
1:37:17
All right, listen up, everyone.
1:37:21
We are gonna hold the line
here at Tan Canh...

1:37:23
and mount a stage retreat
back to where we are, Kontum.

1:37:28
That will pull these North Vietnamese
divisions out of the hills...

1:37:31
and when they do,
we are gonna call in the B-52s...

1:37:34
and carpet bomb
each of these squares.

1:37:38
We are gonna wipe out the second,
third and fifth division...

1:37:42
of the North Vietnamese Army.
1:37:44
My old colleague,
Colonel Ba, will conduct...

1:37:47
a forward command
defense and withdrawal.

1:37:56
This is General Giap,
commander of the N.V.A.
