I guess he's safe where he is.
He can hang on.
Yeah. If anybody can hang on,
Rankin can hang on.
Just look at this leaf.
What about it?
- Look at the complications.
Think of all the trouble
it took to make this leaf.
You never saw nothing
as complicated as this.
I'm as complicated as that.
The human body's the most
complicated thing in the world.
It ain't more complicated
than this leaf.
- Sure it is.
That leaf's a little thing.
The human body's a lot bigger.
That's what I mean. It's got a lot
more to be complicated about.
This leaf ain't got
nothing to be complicated about
when you get right down to it.
Look at the veins, for instance.
These veins are more
important than human veins?
I didn't say that.
I only said look at them.
All right. I'm looking. So what?
They're fancy.
The trouble with this map is
there's no detail about the farm.
It says the wall ends down by
the river. We know that already.
Doesn't show us anything new at all.
Might as well toss it away.
If we tried the river...
What did you say?
Nothing. I didn't say anything.
Oh, come on, Windy. This is no time
sister. What did you say?
I was thinking that...
Spit it out.
Well, I said,
I'd bet if we tried the river.
What about if we tried the river?
Well, we could circle the farm
by the river and then crawl
along by the bank.
Maybe he's got something there.
Go on, what else?
Forgetting the farm entirely.
then wading along the bank till
the bridge then we blow her?
How about it?
Say, you're a pretty
shrewd guy, Windy.
I tell that to myself all the time.
Doesn't sound bad.
- Sounds good.
We'll have to work fast.
- Awful fast.
Yeah.
What we'll do is this.
Ward,
you take a patrol and go first.
Windy, you take
another one and follow.
If Ward gets jammed,
you'll pitch in.
I'll stay here with the rest
of the platoon.
I'll give you exactly 30 minutes.
Then we'll hop over this wall
and head for the house.
You can tell when we start
cos I'll put Rivera to work.
coming up on this side,
so they'll pay us all the attention,
then you can blow the bridge.
As soon as we hear you blow it,
we'll get up and rush the joint.
How does it sound?
- Sounds all right.
How about you, Windy?
Check.
- Well, that's the story, then.
You've cut yourself a tough job, Tyne.
It's suicide. I'm a hero.
We're all heroes. This'll mean
a good conduct medal.
OK. Pick your men.
You too, Windy.
Joe, Sam, Rye, Horn, Ross, Tranella,
Monty, Miles.
Ward and Windy will tell you
what the setup is.
It's kind of simple.
Can't be any worse
than Louisiana manoeuvres.
I don't know what else to say except
it's a stinking situation. Right?
Right.
Good luck.
OK, you gravel agitator, let's go.
Jack?
Can you take a note to Rivera?
Hey, Rivera.
Somebody's coming up there.
Maybe it's Marlene Dietrich.
Has it got legs?
- I can't see.
It's the way they walk in the army.
It's Joe Jack. Look at that guy travel.
- Not much style.
Why do they always stick you out
in left field? Why don't you hang
around where a guy can get at you?
There are three ways to do things.
The right way, the wrong
way and the army way.
It's the army way to stick me in left field!
What you got, Joe?
Message from Tyne.
Wish I had my glasses.
Cut it. Cut it. What's he say?
Two patrols going
try go round farm via river.
I taking rest platoon over field.
When blow my whistle
synchronise watch 11:40 hours.
Five minutes after going upfield
on dot.
Give cover upfield.
Remember, cover 11:44 and 45 seconds.
Hope ammo holds out.
We are going all the way.
That's all.
- How's he signed?
Tyne. Sergeant. USA.
Formal, ain't he?
If this thing is right,
it's two minutes to 11:45.
Have the patrols left yet, Joe?
- Yeah, before I came here.
OK. Hop back and say we're all set.
Tell Tyne I said good luck.
I'll tell him, Rivera.
Nobody dies.
How's the ammo?
- It's been worse and it's been better.
Tyne really cut himself
a piece of cake.
Hey, Friedman, what's this mean?
upfield on dot. I don't get it.
Let me see the note.
"Five minutes after going... "
Oh, I get it. It means that five
minutes after he blows his whistle,
they're going up the field.
He wants us to go to work
15 seconds before.
- Oh, is that it?
Suppose they'll give me
money for overtime?
- Sure.
It's a tricky business.
Looks like we'll be getting
Mary and Joseph, there's a lot
of good men going out in this war.
Why don't they let us alone?
I wish I had every Nazi right
in the palm of my hand.
I'd crush them to a pulp.
Why don't they let us alone?
You catch on slow, Rivera,
but you catch on good.
- Yeah.
Jack be nimble, Jack be quick.
What are you looking at?
Not looking.
Thinking.
Ward thinks we'll never
make it across the field.
Ward thinks you're
throwing yourself away.
- I don't care what he thinks!
I'm in command here.
Wish that Jack would get back.
Sorry I slipped, Sarge.
- Shh! See that you don't slip again.
You oughta write
a letter too, Tinker.
I forgot you're sprawled
out of that wall.
OK, pal. I'll write that letter
to your mom.
Dear Mom,
somewhere in Italy.
Isn't very comfortable but a man
has to lie where he can these days.
If you ever get to Italy,
you must come and see me
for I'm always going to be here.
Water's cold.
Funny thing on a hot day,
when the water's cold.
You've just come in under the wire.
How'd it go?
- Rivera said it's OK.
He said good luck.
- Nice of him.
All the watches are synchronised.
We only have to check with Rivera.
There's Tyne's whistle
right on the nose.
Even the second hand's
right on the nose.
I'm going to cut
If the ammo holds out.
- The ammo had better hold out.
Five minutes before diversion.
- Yep.
I figure right behind that farm.
Quiet.
- That's good.
Hope it stays that way.
How do you feel about things, Arch?
It's a long war.
That's all I know about it.
- You still worried about Tibet?
Huh...
Sometimes I think we'll
never get out of the army.
Honest. That's what I think.
I used to think I'd never get in.
I figure I'll get out, some day.
Could be worse.
I don't know how.
You don't know!
You don't get all
the stinking details?
I've got a stinking detail right now.
Who hasn't?
Maybe we can sleep all day tomorrow.
Maybe Germany
will surrender tomorrow.
Who knows?
Who knows?
I'm going to check
with the men again.
When you hear the bridge blow, get up
and run for the farmhouse. Run fast.
Pass the word along.
When you hear the bridge blow,
get up and run for the farmhouse
and run fast.
Pass the word on.
What's the matter, Sarge?
Stomach.
in a tight knot.
