Kelly's Heroes Page #2

Hold it down there a bit, Willard.

The Corporal's trying to tell us something.

Yes, sir. You're telling me what?

There are three tanks coming up the road.

I suggest you get activated!

Now, come on, pal!

Ain't you got any Shermans?

We've been polishing these things

for two days!

If we take them out there in that rain,

they'll rust up on us.

Don't give me a hard time.

Get off your ass, and get out there!

Yes, sir. I didn't mean nothing!

I was just trying to tell you

how we're feeling, ain't that right, Willy?

"Hold the ground at all costs?"

But we're a reconnaissance company!

It's not our job to hold the ground!

That's an infantry's job!

We're supposed to go out

and find someplace...

...look at it and tell you

what the situation is.

I can tell you what the situation is!

It stinks!

It's wet, it's cold,

and we're under heavy fire!

Yes! Yes!

Are they sending anything to support us?

They say they haven't got anything.

We've been ordered to hold.

- Hold! With what?

- That's what I told them!

You think we ought to pull out?

I don't know. Better wait for Big Joe.

Those are not Mulligan's mortars anymore.

Those are German 88s!

As much as I like Big Joe, I don't want

to spend the rest of the war in a camp.

Besides which, I'm first-generation Italian,

they'd shoot me as a traitor.

The indications are the Germans

are coming and we won't stop them.

With your permission, I'll pull the vehicle

to the other side of the canal.

Yeah, go on.

Penn, Fisher! Get that damn thing

out of here!

Okay, everybody!

We're pulling out on the double!

Move that stretcher!

God damn it, Cowboy!

I don't know what you was talking about!

There ain't three tanks, there's about 20!

- Ain't that right, Willy?

- Damn right.

Get that thing to the other side

of the canal, you maniac!

Well, that's what we was figuring on doing.

Kelly, come on, we're going!

You're coming, ain't you?

Go on ahead.

All right, good luck!

Okay, Penn, let's go!

How many more bars of gold like this

do you have in that convoy?

Vierzehn.

Come on, speak English, Colonel.

How many bars like this in your trucks?

Fourteen.

Fourteen what?

Thousand.

Fourteen thousand?

Whereabouts is your convoy right now?

Where are your trucks?

Clermont.

In Clermont. Clermont?

Is the gold still in the trucks?

Nein!

Whereabouts? Whereabouts is the gold?

In the bank.

Colonel? Wake up, wake up.

What about support units?

Support?

Yeah, tanks.

Come on, tanks. Stuff like that.

Tanks!

Three Tiger tanks.

What about infantry?

What about infantry, Colonel?

- Did you hear from headquarters?

- We've been ordered to hold.

I'll tell them what to hold!

The Third took over one hour ago!

- We're pulling out of here!

- Great!

- Where's Maitland?

- He's salvaging a yacht.

- A yacht?

- A yacht!

- I'll see you about 10 miles down the road.

- Wait a minute!

- Is everybody across the bridge?

- Kelly's in the barn with that Colonel.

- Did you tell him we're pulling out?

- We told him. He's crazy!

Tell Mulligan to give me three minutes

and lay all the mortar into that barn.

- Do you understand?

- Lf you say so.

You wait here.

Mulligan!

Come on, Colonel. Come on.

Get up and sit right here.

Kelly! Half the German Army's

coming up the road.

In minutes, Mulligan will drop

10 tons of mortar on this joint!

- What are you doing?

- I'm looking after the Colonel.

Shoot him and let's get the hell

out of here!

Shoot him, we don't get the gold.

What gold?

The gold that's in a bank 25 miles east

of Nancy, that's what.

Mulligan, I said three minutes!

Come on, let's get out of here!

Kelly? You okay, Kelly?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Come on, you nut!

Let's get the hell out of here!

Fisher! Petuko! Come on,

we're moving out! Move it out!

Move it out! Babra! Come on! Move it!

Get in, we're pulling out!

Kelly, you nut!

Come on!

Wait a minute, will you?

Will you wait a minute?

Listen to me a second.

It's not me, I tell you. It's not me!

I can't tell one shell from another!

They all look alike.

They all look alike.

If it was me...

If I could tell, would I be here?

Would I be here? I wouldn't be here, Kelly!

I'd be in the States checking out the duds.

I'd be out with all those broads!

- I'd be working in a factory.

- Relax.

Wait a minute! We've got to have

a little understanding around here.

How the hell do we ever get

any understanding around here, Kelly?

Relax.

Mulligan, I just want

to make you a proposition.

A proposition?

Well, is it dirty, or just illegal?

I want you to set up a barrage for me.

I want you to lay down a barrage for me.

Grid section 7,

right here at these crossroads.

I got to have a signed order from the C.O.

I need an authorization.

You see, that's just the problem, Mulligan.

We don't have an authorization.

You don't have a...

Kelly, without an authorization,

I can't help you.

I told you I had a proposition, Mulligan.

That's just what I meant.

A proposition.

Why?

Why what?

Why...

Why not?

You won't forget me now, will you?

Why, no. I won't forget, Kelly.

You're a good man, Mulligan.

- Come on!

- Screw you, Mac!

Come on, move it!

Up yours, baby!

Hey, come on, get it out of there!

Come on!

Hey, come on. Move it!

All right, come on, you guys! Clear it out!

Come on, get the horse out of here!

Get on the side, will you?

Move it out, come on now! Move it!

Keep it going, boys. Move it through.

All right, keep it going. Let's go.

A message from Captain Maitland.

- Did you read it?

- Yeah.

- What's it say?

- He wanted you to read it, Joe.

Take the underwear off your head.

Enough is enough.

We've been ordered to pull back.

We've been ordered to pull back.

Yeah, I heard.

All right!

We've been ordered back

to map reference 473, so let's move it!

But my hair is still in curlers!

That's telling them, Willard!

Come on, let's move it out.

Joe, what about Nancy?

Pack it up, let's move.

Move them out, will you, Corporal?

Where have you been?

- Checking a few things out.

- Like what?

I'm going after that gold, Joe.

That's what I thought.

Do you want in?

Do I want in?

Let me tell you something.

I'll say it nice and clear.

I got a job to do and that is

to get you guys to Berlin alive.

We've been at the front end

of this war all the way.

If you whisper one word

about the gold to the guys...

...l'll bounce you from this outfit so fast

your feet won't touch the ground.

Do you understand?

Yeah, I understand.

You'd better fix up some transfer papers
