gonna be all right sir.

You're gonna be all right.

Wanna say something sir?

Go ahead sir. Try sir.

We have...

Come on sir.

I'll get you a drink of water.

That's right, I'll get

you a drink of water.

My son...

Come on out and fight!

Come on out I can see you!

It's you!

It would be you.

The colonel's dead.

So are all my boys.

I kept telling the colonel I'll

get him through and I didn't.

I haven't even got a cigarette!

These are yours.

He's still out there.

I gotta go bury him.

He just wanna get yourself killed.

I just can't let him lay there.

He's dead. He doesn't need burying.

I'm not gonna let

him die like a dog.

Somebody's gonna pay

for killing him.

You wanna kill somebody?

Why don't you kill me?

- Kill you?

- Yeah.

You said you wanted to get one

man alive out of your platoon.

Well you got your wish, only double.

'Cause you and me.

Ain't that something?

Forget it! We'll never

see the morning.

Yes we will. They can't

hurt us anymore now.

They threw everything at

us:
rifle fire, grenades,

four two's, artillery.

I'm telling you, they

can't scratch us.

If we wanted to take that hill, we

could take it easy. The two of us.

- With what?

- We're lucky, we're lucky.

With guts we'll take 'em.

We still got the flamethrower.

- Let's go get it.

- Wait.

- You go with me?

- Yeah yeah, but wait.

Wait for what?

I wanna live as long as I can.

Where'd you get those?

The colonel never got a

chance to decorate his men.

Fell down like rain.

You gotta help me.

We gotta get even.

You know, I feel sorry for you Montana.

You got nobody now but me.

I wish I had a bottler...

even a stiff drink.

What good would that do?

If you have to be a hero,

and get decorated...

you gonna need a witness.

If we gonna do anything,

now is the time to do it.

- Changed your mind, ha?

- No.

If you have to go out

there, I'll go with you.

Let's go...

colonel.

Lieutenant no! Lieutenant.

Who are you?

Don't you know me sir?

- It's Riordan!

You forgot to shave today.

How come, ha?

Yeah. Guess I forgot. I was busy.

Where is the rest of your squad?

No dice.

Hey, I'm crapping out.

Don't wake me.
