The withdrawal helicopter is in the platform.
Team of election, presents in the entrance west.
Better to be hurried, friends.
It seems that we have some customers come.
They could leave to fight one days…
… it stops in giving a time to them to put in day the ones that already we have.
This man has multiple injuries, does not have time for rays X.
The Room of Operation has taken it. Now.
They prepare it soon, while we wait the helicopter.
This man is in shock.

We have somebody important thing, Gentleman. A Colonel NVA.
Where he is? In the operation room.
He goes to save itself?
He is in critical state. now it is doubtful.
Then he prays for a medical miracle, we have that to keep it alive.
The least let us interrogate until it.
We almost arrive. Only a little more.
Already we arrive, end of the stroll.
We go.
With care.
Certain, it takes off the clothes.
All?
Only the shirt and the jacket, Lieutenant.
Unless it is wounded in some place that I do not know.
We go, Lieutenant. Mrs. takes off the clothes.
She has that to understand that it is an order that does not make in them frequently.
Then, which the verdict, Sergeant?
Who, I?
A small one is alone breaks up. This to kill does not go me, Lieutenant.
They rest, gentlemen.
Goldman lieutenant? Correct, Sir.

Then, vocês that had captured Colonel NVA?
Yes, Sir.
Where they had accurately captured it?
In Kwan Tho. To ones 30 km to the North daqui?

He could be a great possibility.
They had made well, has great thing here.
It can be valid some medals for vocês.
They continue.
Medals… Great!
A Buddhist brochure, to help to the species human being.
This another one appeared in November in the province Tay Ninh…
… in the body of a soldier dead.
It does not leave that it deceives them to this.
This book will count documents of VietCongs studies…
… for a correct understanding of the new situation.
What it means that they plan intense attacks large-scale.
Only that we do not know where or when.
Khe Sahn is surrounded right now. We have six a thousand marines in this valley.
It could be another Diên Biên Phu.
Khe Sahn is very far from the laosiana border.
A VietCong victory there, does not matter as…
… the government would not desestabilizaria.
E this, after everything, is its final objective.
However, however, however. What it is this?
It did not mark nothing with ink, but, he looks at here.
You can leave marks with the nail. Either encircling a city…
Saigon. Or a military base.
Danang. Chu Lai
Or to designate with the finger, thus.
This is not close to where was captured?
It is., we have an advanced base, Ladybird there.
It does not have skill to interrogate this man.
It finishes to leave a great operation, for God, you will have that to wait.
Doctor, Leaves to explain me a thing. We are in a war.
It is thus?
It is., and if to wait this patient to improve, the war can finish.
I doubt, Colonel. Unless he plans a nuclear attack.
This man has important referring information…
… the plans of communist battle, and we need to know which are, now.
I speak to save lives, many lives, perhaps thousand.
American lives. It is understanding?
Now, ladies, do not judge a man for the skill that if moves with the leg.
Its Lieutenant is pretty.
He is.
I do not understand because not house with it.
Tuyet, does not say this, please. Already it is sufficiently difficult as it is.
It goes to see it?
I finish here for you. He walks, goes.
In front, he enters.
I cannot be very. Still I am of service.
All good, we see in them later. When to want.
I am thankful.
Then, he goes to be a time?
Only some days.
I have some broken ribs, and migraines.
It swims important, comparing that almost I died in the rice field.
It is., I know.
This does not surprise me.
Only that it stows thinking.
In a coffin with flag on.
Ei, I am alive.
I have luck. I always had luck.
I go to say a thing when to leave daqui, we will go one days to Japan, Ok?
Certain? Rest and amusement.
I finish to come back of there a few days ago.
I thought that we went together.
The things had moved.
With who it was to Japan, Nikky?
With nobody. I have that to make my patrol.
Ei, Nikky.
What it is that is having, is better that I know.
Now what it had? It knew somebody?
I already said, I was alone.
We combine to go together, What it had to move?
Many things!
What it has with you? It disturbs what it?
The dilatação and scraping.
What?
The abortion. I made an abortion.
It made an abortion and it did not say me? It consulted not even me?
I did not think that it needed its permission.
It is., good, also he was my baby. It is not?
Probably, yes.
How probably, yes?
It is, he was its son, it is well. It makes if it to feel better?
Not, it did not have the right.
I have all the right.
He was my son, it was my decision and my future.
The least what it could make age to have the decency…
… to say me what it was making.
Without promises, one does not remember? This is not just.
Myron, if I had said that I was pregnant, what he would have made?
I do not know what it would make.
Well, it would try!
Probably it would have asked for that it was married me.
I do not want if it marries me because it feels that it has that to make it.
Good, and what it happens if it felt as that it wanted?
I cannot Myron. Not in way, to everything this, now.
Ei, this is almost finishing.
Not! not! It is almost finishing. It does not understand?
I do not want to have a son whose father can come back toward house in a stock market.
Nurse, nurse! She helps!
What she had? I do not know what it had.
It was thus when I arrived.
Blue code! Blue code!
What it had here?
The truth is Sir, who somebody is wanting to kill it.
It swims, and I repeat nothing, except the medical and military staff…
… it enters in this room. It understood, welded?
Yes, Sir.
He says me, all that had entered in this room when you were of service.
Well, gentleman, nobody, except this nurse.
Which age its intention alone in the room with this Colonel?
I cannot fight for both the sides. there I tried to kill it.
It did not think that to take off hoses of its arms it could fail?
I did not take off no hose.
I only freed the leather straps, and this is everything.
This is everything?
This man is a war prisoner!
Since when he has permission to intervene?
If you placed these pressed leather straps, you could kill it.
But you know the queen game more than.
I am nurse, treatment to help. I do not try to kill.
You were born in Hanoi, son only Tuyet.
He is this same.
My family if moved in 1954.
We are catholics, not communist.
It is., clearly.
Now, who gave the order to it to kill the Colonel?
Nobody.
Already it said, I am nurse.
I am not communist and I did not try to kill it.
What you said is not truth.
How it is felt today, Colonel?
First, we will start with its name.
In accordance with the Convention of Geneva…
… we have the right to know its name, patent and serial number.
It insults our intelligence.
Ho Chi Minh made already it when the Frenchmen had been here.
He took the Native land to the bad way.
He had to be punished by this imprudence.
If it does not worry, if not to say what we want to know, it will say.
We know that its name is Colonel Le Van Trang.
That it is in a team of general planning.
Of General Giap, and that it says to Frenchman fluente,
English e.
My English is not so good.
He is well smart stops in saying who to them is trying to kill it.
I find that it stows unconscious, until the agitation to finish,
but the nurse, it was sufficiently fast.
Colonel, what he made in Kwan Tho?
Seeing the landscape.
Some day I wait to all see my Country of new.
Appositive the one will see that it.
Which the meaning of the phrase Kuang Kong Keek Kuang Thoi Giap?
You already know.
He is., I know.
The general attacks, the general prepares a revolt.
What I want to know of you is where and when.
It forgives, I cannot say what I do not know.
This book was found in its things next to this map.
You have all the parts of the break-head.
he joins them you yourselves.
I want that says you me,
or I go to take it my South Vietnamese friends daqui.
I will die of all skill.
Nothing of what you make, it will move.
E you do not import yourself.
My Country matters, my life does not matter.
Vocês had never defeated in them in a battlefield, Colonel.
E will make never it.
We have the power to bomb them and to make to come back the age of the rock.
It can be that yes, Colonel.
But, vocês never will defeat in them.
Unless they are prepared to fall…
… and to eat rice per next a thousand years.
Because it makes this, Tuyet?
I have that to leave this place, Nikky, they believe that I tried to kill the Colonel.
Good, but if to run away, it will only confirm the suspicion.
How they find that I made such thing? I am a good catholic.
I know, but they do not know.
She says me was alone in the room with the colonel or not?
How she can ask this to me? If you do not believe me?
It is my anniversary, knows?
What? today? Which its age?
22 years, beautiful forms to celebrate, hãa?
It is.
It waited to receive a letter or something similar,
of my fiancé.
It did not arrive.
The post office is slow here, knows, finds that still it can arrive.
I do not know of it…

It forgot itself me.
I do not find that these things pass.
Who to want goes me now?
It only improves first, certain?
I know that the girls will come, it is alone to wait and it will see.
Please, please.
It does not leave me.
I am scared.
I am dying.
I do not want to die in my anniversary.
Ei. Already I cannot support, more.
I see this, all the day.
Nikky.
Not I asked for this, I did not ask for you, nor a baby.
Nikky, does not make this.
It does not leave me.
Love I you.
He does not understand? This could have been you.
I was not, I was not.
But, I am here, and you also.
I want that it is with me. Not.
It listens.
I want that if it marries me.
To marry me you?
It is…
I have some free days. We will see in them in Bankog or Bali.
We go, what it finds?
E later will come back toward its mission?
It is. and the reply it is, not.
I more do not go to break my heart, Myron.
I cannot simply leave, and less still you.
I have compromis… I feel.
That I cannot only support more pain, and with you, is everything what will happen.
Nikky, does not make this.
Perhaps, we would have to finish, and not in seeing more to them.
It is playing? I am not playing.
It finished.
Lieutenant.
You see these faces, as this, and of the much penalty.
I am not well, Sergeant.
Only that things had happened.
it was not directly with me, but, I feel as if it was.
It has something to see with its nurse?
We go, Lieutenant, the others are below of me, but they speak with me.
It is, Nikky was pregnant, of my son.
It did not speak to it?
Not, it did not want.
Well, as it is, says, you knows, as feels itself with this?
All have the chance of speaking on this.
It finished with the colloquy, and already she took all the decisions.
Right now, it is not very contented with this.
What I am or who I am.
You know that I am a welded poor person azarado.
I have you to say that, Lieutenant.
I am here for hearing what you are saying…
… I find that I know for what is passing, and really feel.
But it hears, what I say.

It hears, it sees of my point of view, says, it does not have nothing.
At least you it has somebody with who if to marry.
I have the city of the sin, I have people to my redor…
… all the time, but, exactly thus I am alone, understands?
You have somebody.
He is.
I only feel myself, exactly now.
We go.
It is pretty.
She looks at doctor.
I want this so full idiot of pentanol sodium…
… that it wants on the first time to confess that to dream.
Colonel, the man is in critical conditions…
… pentanol will kill it to sodium.
if not to know what it knows and if not to know fast…
… we will not have time to work a plan.
The Communists can plan to attack Saigom tomorrow…
… or this hospital this night!
I wait its cooperation.
I want that it knows that I am giving my opinion.
Then it considers an order.
Yes., Sir.
They rest.
Its will is strong, Colonel.
But, I find that until you, it will not resist this drug.
E, we cannot allow that you disclose our plans…

It rests in peace.

Somebody helps!
Very well! High there, or I shoot.
