Mine Page #2

Granita stand in that village.

Who knows, maybe...

Tommy?! Listen to me,

you have to calm down, okay?!

You have to calm down, f***!

Mayday Mayday, this is Alpha-Marg...

Mike, it hurts!

Tommy, listen to me!

I can't move, okay?

I stepped on one too!

Oh, my God, Mike!

Tommy, you have to calm down now, okay?

We have to get to the village!

If you stay like this,

we'll never make it!

Yes, ok, the village...

Okay, I'll get there!

You have to grab the radio!

Yeah!

Come on, you can do it!

Ok, I can do it.

Mike, I can do it.

Ok, I see my backpack.

Grab it, Marine. Reach!

Come on, Tommy!

No Mike, it hurts!

You have to grab the radio, man!

I can't move, I can't!

Yes you can! Reach!

Grab your medical kit!

The middle pocket!

The thing is... Come on, man!

Get the kit! Ok, ok!

Come on, Marine, get it!

Ok, ok.

So?

Grab your medical kit!

Well done, Marine!

You did it. Well done.

Well done.

I got it.

So do you.

No, no!

Tommy, you have to...

Come on, man, you need that morphine!

Reach, Marine, reach...

Concentrate!

Concentrate, ignore the pain!

Think training!

We have to get to the village!

And then...

you have to call Jake!

Repeat that!

Jake...

Exactly.

Jake is waiting for me...

And Tuesday!

That's right Marine. Now move!

No, don't look, Tommy.

Mike, I have no legs!

No, Tommy, don't look!

I have no legs!

Come on man, don't look!

Don't look!

Mike I'm no longer your legs!

Mike, I'm no longer your legs!

Be strong, it's next to you!

That's right.

Well done!

Now you can reach your backpack?

We need the radio.

No, wait, one dose is

more than enough.

No, Tommy!

No, one is enough!

Ok, ok, alright.

I need to listen to me.

You have to reach the backpack.

You have to get the radio, ok?

Ok.

Can you?

Bravo, grab the bag!

There, I got it!

Well done!

I got it!

Bravo!

I got it.

You did it!

Well done, mate.

Everything will be fine!

Alpha Margo 4...

Man down. I can't hear you.

I can't hear you in my com

You have to turn the radio on!

I need a phone...

to call Jake.

I need a phone to call... my son...

Tommy, can't hear you in my com.

Check that the walkie is on!

A lemon Granita...

All right.

Stay with me.

I don't want strawberry...

Mike, you know what I want?

Stay with me, Tommy!

The village...

Yes, I have to get to the village.

Beautiful Sara, Mike...

You'll see, it'll be beautiful.

It'll be ok, man.

Now I get it.

Maybe this old mine is rusty and

doesn't work anymore. Now I get it.

Don't even think about it, Mike!

I have to do something!

Do not even think about it, Mike!

You're losing too much blood!

I won't let you die!

Mike, can you tell Jake

that I love him so much?

Stay alive, my friend.

No!

Sh*t.

The battery.

Mayday, Mayday, Alpha Margo 4

to Oxen. Do you copy, over?

Alpha Margo 4 to Oxen. Do you copy?

Over.

Base camp here,

We've been trying for hours,

Alpha Margo. Over.

I copy, Oxen.

Sir, my partner was killed

on this mission.

and I'm in critical condition,

I request immediate extraction with EOD.

Over.

Define critical, Sergeant. Over.

I stepped on an explosive device, sir.

The same kind that

killed my spotter, over.

Major! Over.

What about the mission, Sergeant? Over.

Failed, sir.

But I need help.

Sir, I need immediate help. Over.

What's your position, Alpha Margo?

Over.

I can't say for sure.

The GPS is out of order.

We're about...

4 hours east

of the point of release.

Copy.

You're still an hour

from the village. Over.

I don't know if you understood

what my current situation is...

I'm stuck with my left

foot on a goddam mine. Over.

Copy, Alpha Margo, I understand

your situation clearly, over.

Great, you get my situation clearly!

So come and get me! Over.

Negative.

Our choppers can't fly

because of the continuous sandstorms.

Over.

Sh*t.

So what's the plan? Over.

There's a convoy under fire

near the border

If all goes well, it will be in your

area in about 52 hours, Sergeant.

Over.

Sir...

with all due respect...

If all goes well, I don't know

if I can survive for 52 hours.

Over.

Be prepared to report your position

when the time will comes.

We will contact you by radio...

to make sure that you're...

still there,

Over.

That's it?

What happened to

"No one left behind"?

Over.

Listen to me, Sergeant Stevens,

The type of mines scattered in that area

can remain active for about 40 years...

but ten years after production,

so they say...

about 4% will malfunction.

After 15 years in,

this can be as high as 7%.

Great.

Considering the situation,

my personal advice...

if you can't survive

until we come...

try the the Schumann Maneuver.

The Schumann Maneuver, Major? Over.

It's a last resort.

Dig a small trench to shelter

you from the explosion...

then fasten the sole of

your boot to the ground.

Major?

Major?

Over.

You can avoid harm to your major organs

from the shock wave of the blast...

F*** the Schumann Maneuver!

Perfect.

That's it, huh?

Pardon me, Tom.

I have to change the batteries.

Thanks, my friend.

No water.

No radio.

This is your last stop, Mike.

Help!

Help!

Come on, Mike.

Stop!

Show me your hands,

don't take another step!

Do you understand me?

Don't move!

It's a minefield!

Full of mines here!

Boom!

You find it funny?

Did you put the mines here?

That's why it's so amusing?

Listen, man.

Please.

I can't stay stuck here forever.

Why are you stuck?

Thank God, he understands...

Well, listen, I need

water and a radio.

Is your village over that dune?

Water!

Radio!

Why did you stop here?

Not going home...

to your family?

Are you kidding?

My left foot...

is on a mine!

If I move...

Do you get it?

Why is that?

Yes, this is why!

Are you sure?

You see this body?

This is Thomas Madison, my best friend.

And he died because he stepped

on one of your mines!

The mines aren't mine.

Don't worry for your friend...

he's at peace now...

but you're alive.

You have to take the next step now.

No!

Next?

My next step...

will be my last.

Understand?

Thank you.

Thank you, thank you.

Now...

since you're here, please,

give me the radio.

Give me the radio, watch, and backpack then.

You just take the radio.

Please.

The radio is useless.

There's no music now.

No dancing.

No, you didn't understand, I need to...

You need to take next step.

Wait.

Where are you going?

And why are you walking like that?

Do you know where the mines are?

Because I have one under my foot!

I'm on a mine,

so there's no next step for me!

Understood, a**hole?

You must always keep going.

What an idiot.

Come on, Marine.

This is a simple mission.

This is better than nothing.

Wait...

Be careful...

Thank you.

Thank you thank you...

Can you tell your father

that I thank you...

very, very much...

and I am very, very grateful?

Look what you have.

A...

a soldier!

Like this.

I have one myself.

Is this yours?

I'm stuck.

I can't move.

Since you're here...
