Operation Daybreak

Jan

Josef

They sent for you too

What the hell is

it doing about?

I was on leave, out of the

blue they called me back

That's all I know

So?

The general will

see you now

Stand at ease

Do you three know

each other?

Uh... Kubis and I do

sir, but... uh...

Alright, introduce

yourselves

Karel Curda, sir

Born near Prague

I was a customs officer

before the war

Jan Kubis Born

in Vladaslov

I was a farmer

Gabcik, sir Josef Gabcik Born

in Pilsum, Locksmith

Good

The mission we

have in mind

can only be undertaken by men

with your qualifications

For the past three month

you've been closely observed

You're here now because you

shown us that you have courage

endurance and

resourcefulness

I am going to ask you to

undertake a mission

that regardless

of outcome,

will certainly be one of

the most dangerous of the war

I need hardly say it, you

are liberty to refuse

Good

First, I am gonna give you

some background information

And then I'll talk

about the mission itself

The Code name is

'Operation Day Break'

Reinhard Heydrich came to Prague

three months ago to take up his post

as acting right

protector

for what the Nazis now call

'Bohemia and maradia' that means

he has absolute power of life

and death over all Czechs

We believe if Adolph

Hitler were to die

That Heydrich would become

fearer of the third life

His orders, one to crush

all Czech resistance

Two, to deport large numbers

of the community to work

in Germany as slave labor

Do not underestimate him

He is not a barbarian

like Hitler

He is the man of the

highest intelligence

ruthless, ambitious and

he is the only one

to whom Adolph Hitler

really listens

Your rights protector

I have a petition signed

by all the inhabitance

of a small village

near Pilsum

Beggin you, sir to show mercy

to the nine young hostages

due to be executed tomorrow

Not one of them is yet

twenty years old

and youngest is

only sixteen

The villagers

do feel that

Rights protector says that

whatever happens to the Czechs

or to any of Slav is of no

possible interest to him

We intend to parachute you

back into Czechoslovakia

To assassinate Heydrich

Heydrich is closely

gaurded night and day

When ever he travels, he is

escorted by highly trained SS men

So it will be up to you to formulate

a plan and to carry it out

You must find

a way to kill him

When do we leave sir?

You'll be confined to these

headquarters until further orders

Thank you very much

Good luck

Stand by Champs

we are over Pilsum

Hold to your mama!

Stop

Don't try anything

You Czech aren't you?

Keep walking

Well, I am Czech too.

Move

Jan!

- Twisted bloody ankle

- Can I have a look?

Don't touch it for Christ sake

That guy's the basterd who said we

were gonna drop on a dry clear morning

Did you see Curda?

No, he dripped off

on the other valley

He could be anywhere

Let me lean on you

Damn shame

Not so bad if they make us go

after girls in Czechoslovakia

Even the snow

tastes different

Safer though

You have no

feelings at all

Can you manage?

Feels worse than

it is, come on

Papers, your papers

Where are you going at

this time of the morning?

To work?

Where?

Pilsum

Walk to work everyday

You walk two hundred

kilometers everyday?

You're no way

near Pilsum

Where have

you come from?

Hands, Hands!

Come on!

Let's go

Bastard R.A.F.

Two hundred kilometers

from Pilsum

Dropped in a wrong

bloody place

God knows

where Curda is

So now what do we do?

Lost the radio

operator

I can't hardly walk

and the entire German

army looking for us

Never mind where we are going

we don't even know where we are

And you are

a lot of use

No feelings at all

Christ, we

are at quarry

Two men

I know you

are in there

It's alright we

won't harm you

I am comming in

Come inside both of you

Close the door

You can't stay here

You're parachutists

Look, we can

all be shot

I've got a wife

and children

I've hurt my foot

We need some help

But the place is

swarming with Germans

Really

I haven't

spoken to you

and I haven't

seen you

Please go away

See who it is

Germans

Get into the vault

Parachutists Have

you seen anybody?

Tell him you've

seen nothing

- But what about...

- Do it before he comes

Well, have you

seen anything?

It's serious

Ah- it's you

What's going on

in there, eh?

One of my men got

hurt in the blast

His foot

Give us a lift

to the doctor

I'll make it

worth a while

You've been pitching some

of your stocks again?

Better unwrapped

Bring him

Over here

Thank you

Good morning is

your father in?

What's it about?

Emergency We're

from quarry

This fellow's

hurt his foot

Come this way please

Father, two men

from the quarry

One's hurt his foot

Tell them in

Go in please

Lie down Take off

your shirt and sock

How did it happened?

I have fell

twisted my ankle

Can you move the toes?

That's good

I haven't seen you

before, have I?

No

Does that hurt?

How long have you been

working at the quarry

Well, about

six months now

It's a sprain

Nothing serious

The Germans are

busy this morning

looking for

parachutists

Yes, we heard

Guess they've been

searching the whole area

I expect they were

up at the quarry

Oh yes

Yes the quarry would be a good place

for the parachutists to hide

But I doubt it they'll

get pretty far

Not now

Now no one might

shelter them

Not after murdering

those Germans

Everybody will be

too frightened

Put your finger

there, will you?

Stand up

That will do

I won't hesitate

to shoot

Sonia!

Yes, these are

the other two

You will forgive me?

We have to make sure you're not

spies planted by the Nazis

Welcome home

Oh God!

You bastard!

Adult education?

Come in Find a place

Good afternoon

For the benefit

of the those

who are entering for

the higher certificate,

today we are going to talk about

positive and negative ileums

You managed to convince our friends

and countries to your identity

Now you must

convince us

Miles isn't it? Come

a thousand miles to help

How do you mean

convincing?

We want proof

We don't carry papers signed by

Winston Church, if that's what you mean

What was the name of your

commanding officer in England

Answer the question

We are Czechs

We were born here and

we've come back to fight

and that's all

we're telling you

You say you're Czechs

Your home

where is it?

Vladaslov

I know Vladaslov

What's unusual about

the bridge there?

It doesn't exist

Huh? Why?

It was blown up in 39

Anyone could know that

I was a member of the group

that lay the explosives

There were three of us caught by

the Germans, I was one of them

Anyone could

say that too

Get dressed

So now you see...

We have both positive and

negative particles in the vacuole

Karel

Where did you

come from?

Don't ask me any questions

I... can't say anything

I knew you'd come

I knew it I knew it

I was a bit worried I'll

meet somebody else

How? I said I'll

wait and I meant it
