Come on! Keep shooting!

Major!

Among the many reports of the raid

on the chateau near Rennes...

...perhaps the most objective

is the one by General Worden...

...in which he states:

"We are recommending that those

members of the group known...

...as 'The Dirty Dozen ' who survived

this operation...

...should have their records

amended to indicate...

... that they are being returned

to active duty at their former ranks.

And that the next of kin of those

prisoners who were killed be advised...

... that they lost their lives

in the line of duty. "

You did a fine job, major.

I'll see you around.

You did a good job, soldier.

Hurry up and get well.

We need men like you out there.

Boy, oh, boy, oh, boy.

Killing generals could get to be

a habit with me.
