"Now let's go." "It's no use." "we couldn't go on in this." "We'll have to wait till it lets up." "we'd have been there by morning." "What difference does that make Captain." "You said you left a dead man on the streets at Orre." "You changing your diagnosis doctor." "You think he has a chance now." "I didn't say that." "does it." "Sergeant."

"at the Belmont Hospital in Bending." "Every nurse in that hospital wanted to work with him." "I was very lucky." "We were together for" "I joined the army." "a bold surgeon." "A brilliant doctor." "hopeless cases." "No other doctor would even attempt." "were miraculous." "The day at the landing at Omaha working on them." "They say he saved over 50 lives." "Whatever happened to that man?" "He's dead." "He died when he began losing lives." "he might have saved if he had gotten to them in time." "There's never enough time." "He started turning his back on hopeless cases." "as to who had a chance and who didn't." "(Sighs) And they ended up sending him back." "Back?" "They sent him to a base hospital." "Somewhere he'd be out of the way." "life and death." "If only he could be made to see how wrong he is." "He's a brilliant doctor." "There is one way." "How?" "Get that man down there to Layal alive." "And keep him that way." "He doesn't have a chance." "Who says." "Hold it." "Let 'em get it out first." "Will?" "You alright?" "Those men back there." "Never seen human beings chopped to pieces like that before." "He had no choice." "that Sergeant." "Taking four lives without batting an eye." "Next minute he's risking four others to save a man he doesn't even know." "I guess I'll never understand this man's army." "and they accused me of grandstanding." "Then I turn my back on the one's I knew didn't have a chance and they call it neglect." "Will." "No matter what happens." "You'll stand by me." "I know." "It's about the only thing I'm sure of." "I wonder why you put up with it." "I love you." "I know that too." "There's never any time for us is there?" "There will be." "Radiator's all shot up."

"They're coming up that valley back there." "You can see them from the ridge." "They're trying to cut off Layal." "You're welcome to tag along with me if you like." "We can't do that." "you better." "We got artillery fire going in to that valley at 1300 hours." "that'll put you right about in the big middle of it when it starts coming in." "Hang back a ways." "You won't have to eat so much of my dust." "Good luck." "Alright Sergeant." "What now?" "We got 10 minutes." "For what?" "To get to Layal." "You heard what he said." "I've been shot at before." "Look Sergeant." "You can't save them all." "There comes a time when we have to make a choice." "and who doesn't." "I always thought that was up to somebody else." "Get off there." "I want to go with you." "I gotta go with you." "Alright." "What about you." "You'll need me in back." "You're going with him?" "Yes." "He's a fool." "Will." "you can catch up to that half-track."
