Synopsis: After his bombardier is killed, Jake "Cool Hand" Grafton (Brad Johnson)', a carrier-based Intruder pilot, questions the purpose of Navy bombing missions. He finds an ally for his cynicism in Virgil Cole, a bombardier on his third tour of duty, and together they ponder the notion of one unsanctioned mission "downtown", to "Sam City" in North Vietnam.

Well, yeah,

l-I think I did.

1327

01:
05:45,250 -- 01:05:46,911

Did you ever hear of SAM City?

1328

01:
05:46,985 -- 01:05:49,544

Well, I'll tell you, I've heard

a lot of stories about SAM City,

1329

01:
05:49,620 -- 01:05:50,552

but I never...

1330

01:
05:50,621 -- 01:05:51,918

They're true.

1331

01:
05:51,989 -- 01:05:54,480

You just saw it.

1332

01:
05:54,558 -- 01:05:55,547

It's no story.

1333

01:
05:55,626 -- 01:05:56,888

It's real.

1334

01:
05:56,961 -- 01:05:59,225

The air force photographs

them every day.

1335

01:
06:00,264 -- 01:06:01,196

You're shitting me.

1336

01:
06:01,265 -- 01:06:03,358

No.

1337

01:
06:03,434 -- 01:06:05,060

Well, then there's got to be

data on it somewhere.

1338

01:
06:05,235 -- 01:06:08,227

Honey, we aren't

in the air force.

1339

01:
06:08,338 -- 01:06:11,102

I saw a picture of People's

Resistance Park in here,

1340

01:
06:11,174 -- 01:06:13,472

but there's no reference

to it on the map.

1341

01:
06:13,543 -- 01:06:14,475

It's there.

1342

01:
06:14,544 -- 01:06:15,476

It's there, Jake.

1343

01:
06:15,545 -- 01:06:16,477

How can it be?

1344

01:
06:16,546 -- 01:06:17,478

I haven't seen it on the map.

1345

01:
06:17,547 -- 01:06:18,479

I was there!.

1346

01:
06:18,548 -- 01:06:19,605

I've seen it:
SAM City.

1347

01:
06:19,682 -- 01:06:20,910

They take 'em out of there,

1348

01:
06:20,983 -- 01:06:22,211

and they fire 'em at us.

1349

01:
06:22,284 -- 01:06:25,082

Now, if we could get

1350

01:
06:25,154 -- 01:06:27,349

a couple of bombs in there,

1351

01:
06:27,423 -- 01:06:29,948

set off some

of those warheads...

1352

01:
06:32,327 -- 01:06:34,158

The whole place would blow.

1353

01:
06:36,397 -- 01:06:39,525

A lot of guys' names

on those missiles.

1354

01:
06:39,600 -- 01:06:42,364

You tell me you're interested

in payback.

1355

01:
06:45,540 -- 01:06:48,600

That might be worth

a court-martial.

1356

01:
06:48,676 -- 01:06:49,973

What do you think?

1357

01:
06:51,645 -- 01:06:54,546

I think we should have

another look at that tape.

1358

01:
07:07,159 -- 01:07:08,456

Hey, man,

what are you doing up?

1359

01:
07:08,527 -- 01:07:09,619

You should be in the sack.

1360

01:
07:09,695 -- 01:07:11,094

You got an alpha strike

tomorrow.

1361

01:
07:11,163 -- 01:07:12,425

Oh, I couldn't sleep.

1362

01:
07:12,498 -- 01:07:13,692

I'm walking it off.

1363

01:
07:13,766 -- 01:07:16,758

Watch out,

skipper's on the prowl.

1364

01:
07:16,836 -- 01:07:18,428

Shitter posted a strike.

1365

01:
07:18,504 -- 01:07:19,664

Said he's going to piss.

1366

01:
07:19,739 -- 01:07:21,707

That doubles his capabilities.

1367

01:
07:21,774 -- 01:07:23,104

It's getting very dangerous.

1368

01:
07:23,174 -- 01:07:25,540

He could hit anywhere.

1369

01:
07:25,610 -- 01:07:28,545

Steam irons,

after-shave bottles...

1370

01:
07:28,646 -- 01:07:31,308

Just think of

the targets available.

1371

01:
07:33,718 -- 01:07:36,050

What are you doing up?

1372

01:
07:36,121 -- 01:07:38,850

Don't lose sleep over it,

Grafton.

1373

01:
07:40,023 -- 01:07:43,959

The price of peace

is eternal vigilance.

1374

01:
07:46,697 -- 01:07:49,063

That's it.

1375

01:
07:49,133 -- 01:07:50,566

God, look at those mothers.

1376

01:
07:50,634 -- 01:07:53,568

Rows and rows of them.

1377

01:
07:53,636 -- 01:07:55,194

If we just knew where that was.

1378

01:
07:55,338 -- 01:07:57,772

People's Resistance Park,

Park of the People.

1379

01:
07:57,840 -- 01:07:59,000

It's there somewhere.

1380

01:
07:59,075 -- 01:08:00,804

So that's the Land of Oz.

1381

01:
08:50,790 -- 01:08:51,779

Need some help?

1382

01:
08:51,858 -- 01:08:53,587

No.

1383

01:
08:53,660 -- 01:08:56,287

Red River, Paul Doumier Bridge.

1384

01:
08:56,361 -- 01:09:00,821

Then you follow the main

boulevard, you go right to it.

1385

01:
09:00,899 -- 01:09:02,764

People's Resistance Park.

1386

01:
09:02,835 -- 01:09:07,033

It's right across the square

from the national assembly.

1387

01:
09:07,139 -- 01:09:08,071

SAM City, man.

1388

01:
09:09,408 -- 01:09:11,501

You guys must be nuts.

1389

01:
09:11,577 -- 01:09:14,545

The air force won't give me

any pictures of downtown.

1390

01:
09:14,612 -- 01:09:16,045

I'd have to send for 'em.

1391

01:
09:16,113 -- 01:09:18,104

That would be like

robbing a bank

1392

01:
09:18,216 -- 01:09:20,446

and using your own car

for the getaway.

1393

01:
09:20,518 -- 01:09:23,749

But you follow the boulevard,

you go right to it,

1394

01:
09:23,821 -- 01:09:25,345

but I did not tell you.

1395

01:
09:25,423 -- 01:09:27,822

I did not tell you, man.

1396

01:
09:27,891 -- 01:09:29,290

You know what this is?

1397

01:
09:29,359 -- 01:09:31,122

It's the yellow brick road.

1398

01:
09:31,294 -- 01:09:32,522

In three nights

1399

01:
09:32,629 -- 01:09:35,996

we hit the power plant

at Bac Yang.

1400

01:
09:36,066 -- 01:09:38,466

We'll be carrying

thousand-pound snake eyes

1401

01:
09:38,535 -- 01:09:40,662

instead of 500s.

1402

01:
09:40,737 -- 01:09:41,897

That's right.

1403

01:
09:41,972 -- 01:09:44,667

When we drop them,

we drop them retarded.

1404

01:
09:44,740 -- 01:09:48,267

I'll bet we can get really low--

maybe even 200 feet.

1405

01:
09:48,344 -- 01:09:52,303

We can use two

on the power plant,

1406

01:
09:52,381 -- 01:09:57,011

and that leaves us

eight for SAM City.

1407

01:
09:57,119 -- 01:09:59,416

We're never going to get

another chance like this.

1408

01:
09:59,487 -- 01:10:00,886

You guys are crazy, man.

1409

01:
10:00,955 -- 01:10:03,856

You're never going

to frigging make it.

1410

01:
10:03,925 -- 01:10:05,153

Yeah!

1411

01:
10:07,161 -- 01:10:09,652

I get good vibes.

1412

01:
10:24,011 -- 01:10:27,572

Well, it looks like

we got lndian country ahead.

1413

01:
10:27,648 -- 01:10:29,047

We are coasting.

1414

01:
10:29,116 -- 01:10:33,484

Black Eagle,

Devil 5-0-5-- feet dry.

1415

01:
10:33,552 -- 01:10:34,814

Roger, 5-0-5.

1416

01:
10:34,887 -- 01:10:36,252

Good hunting, gentlemen.

1417

01:
10:36,322 -- 01:10:42,124

Initial point...

new heading, 2-8-7.

1418

01:
10:42,228 -- 01:10:44,128

Okay, as soon as we

come out of this,

1419

01:
10:44,263 -- 01:10:46,321

keep your eyes peeled

for that power plant.

1420

01:
10:46,398 -- 01:10:48,491

400 feet.

1421

01:
10:55,674 -- 01:10:57,403

Okay, I see it.

1422

01:
10:59,377 -- 01:11:02,834

On target and into attack.

1423

01:
11:02,913 -- 01:11:04,312

Here she comes, five miles out.

1424

01:
11:07,484 -- 01:11:09,884

Ground lock, ten seconds.

1425

01:
11:13,157 -- 01:11:14,715

Hold it.

1426

01:
11:14,792 -- 01:11:16,282

Your pickle's hot.

1427

01:
11:18,995 -- 01:11:19,518

Hack.

1428

01:
11:19,595 -- 01:11:20,527

Bombs away.

1429

01:
11:34,643 -- 01:11:39,080

Your new vector is 0-2-0

degrees, heading north.

1430

01:
11:43,518 -- 01:11:44,644

0-2-0.

1431

01:
11:46,054 -- 01:11:48,113

You have anybody you want

to say good-bye to?
