11. Fuckers really are sneaky.
Copy !req
12. Hey.
Copy !req
13. Are you hit?
Copy !req
14. No.
Copy !req
15. Chesty wants your squad to hang back
Copy !req
16. with Able Company,
see if the Nips follow us.
Copy !req
17. Then we'll rejoin
the battalion further north.
Copy !req
18. Yeah.
Copy !req
19. - JP?
- Yeah?
Copy !req
20. - Set up on that trail.
- On it.
Copy !req
21. Manny, hand that piece
to Garland and dig in next to me and Mo.
Copy !req
22. Come on, let's go.
Deploy.
Copy !req
23. You heard him. Let's go, let's go.
Copy !req
24. - Evans, on me.
- Yes, Sergeant.
Copy !req
25. Supper's on.
Supper's on.
Copy !req
26. Got anything good?
Copy !req
27. - What are those?
- Army rations from 1918.
Copy !req
28. Quartermaster
over in Dog Company
Copy !req
29. claims they're edible.
Copy !req
30. After you suck on them
for about an hour or two.
Copy !req
31. This is all
you could find?
Copy !req
32. You fuckin' forage
next time.
Copy !req
33. Hey, who you
writing to, Leckie?
Copy !req
34. Is it a broad?
Copy !req
35. Aw, come on, Leckie.
Copy !req
36. Read it.
Copy !req
37. I'd do it for you.
Copy !req
38. - "Dear Vera..."
- I knew it. It's a broad.
Copy !req
39. "Dear Vera,
it's raining.
Copy !req
40. I'm entertaining Runner
by reading this letter.
Copy !req
41. Can't wait to see you
and ever so slowly
Copy !req
42. strip you of your..."
Copy !req
43. You don't need
to hear that part.
Copy !req
44. Oh, that's precisely
what I need to hear.
Copy !req
45. Tell her
how handsome I am.
Copy !req
46. I'm gonna tell her
the truth.
Copy !req
47. We've been swallowed
by the jungle
Copy !req
48. and 5,000 Japs
waiting to kill us.
Copy !req
49. Hey, thanks for
brightening the mood.
Copy !req
50. Oh, I do what I can.
Copy !req
51. unless it's somebody with BO.
Copy !req
52. That's really dismal.
Copy !req
53. Man #2:
Yes, and the most dismal thing
Copy !req
54. - about BO is...
Copy !req
55. Keep that line moving. Let's go.
Copy !req
56. especially the ladies.
Copy !req
57. Well, Mr. May, the ladies know
Copy !req
58. how easy my pancakes
are to make.
Copy !req
59. Turn that shit off.
Copy !req
60. I don't wanna hear
about BO and pancakes.
Copy !req
61. I don't answer
to you, Morgan.
Copy !req
62. - What?
- Shove it.
Copy !req
63. - What?
- Whoa whoa whoa.
Copy !req
64. - Man: Tear his head off.
- Get the fuck off me.
Copy !req
65. Relax relax.
Copy !req
66. Yeah, rice.
Just what I was hoping for.
Copy !req
67. What do you got
against Aunt Jemima?
Copy !req
68. Jap navy sails up and down
this slot every night and plasters us.
Copy !req
69. That don't got nothing
to do with her.
Copy !req
70. The only radio reports
I wanna hear
Copy !req
71. is that a bunch of Jap ships
have been sunk somewhere
Copy !req
72. off some crappy island
called Guadalcanal.
Copy !req
73. But we'd need the Navy
for that, wouldn't we?
Copy !req
74. - So fat chance.
- Come on. Hey hey.
Copy !req
75. So the Japs
got us surrounded.
Copy !req
76. Is that
what's buggin' you?
Copy !req
77. John, I shit like 20 times a day.
My ass is killing me.
Copy !req
78. JP's in a bad mood,
Manny.
Copy !req
79. Next he'll be complaining
about the mosquitoes.
Copy !req
80. Come here.
Copy !req
81. Hot chow'll
cheer you up.
Copy !req
82. Think of it as meat.
Copy !req
83. - Fuck it.
- Next.
Copy !req
84. Boys, Division just translated
some Jap newspapers
Copy !req
85. that was found on the other side
of the Matanikau.
Copy !req
86. Would you care to know
what the Nips think of us?
Copy !req
87. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
88. "The Americans
on this island
Copy !req
89. are not ordinary troops,
but Marines,
Copy !req
90. a special force
recruited from jails
Copy !req
91. and insane asylums
for bloodlust."
Copy !req
92. - They got that right.
Copy !req
93. I got some more good news.
Copy !req
94. Rumors that they would never get here
are to the contrary.
Copy !req
95. The Army just landed.
Copy !req
96. - I know, I know.
Copy !req
97. I want every man
in my battalion shaved by 1600.
Copy !req
98. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
99. I guess there ain't nothing much we can do
about our dungarees.
Copy !req
100. I figure we're just
raggedy-ass Marines.
Copy !req
101. - We look this way for a reason.
- Yes, sir.
Copy !req
102. We can't do it
if they don't run.
Copy !req
103. Jesus Christ, Evans,
you sound like my fucking wife.
Copy !req
104. - Kinda looks like her too, huh?
- A little bit.
Copy !req
105. What's this? Hey.
Copy !req
106. - Hey, whoa. Hey hey hey!
- Whoa whoa whoa!
Copy !req
107. Hey, fuck you!
Copy !req
108. - Fuck you guys.
- Put your face right fuckin' here.
Copy !req
109. - Thanks for coming, guys.
- Fuckin' Army.
Copy !req
110. - Just fuckin' wait.
Copy !req
111. - Man: Get in here.
Copy !req
112. See, Evans?
Copy !req
113. The Army don't know
the Japs bomb the airfield,
Copy !req
114. but not the beach.
Copy !req
115. Stay low, get greedy.
Copy !req
116. Let's go.
Come on.
Copy !req
117. - Come on, come on, come on.
- Over here, over here.
Copy !req
118. Grab it, just grab it.
Copy !req
119. - Hey, Manny. Over here, Manny.
- Come on, come on.
Copy !req
120. Give me some stuff.
Copy !req
121. Man #2:
Fill it up. Let's go.
Copy !req
122. Man #3:
Jackpot, boys!
Copy !req
123. Look at this!
Copy !req
124. Let's go, let's go,
let's go, let's go.
Copy !req
125. Come on, JP,
get it in the bag.
Copy !req
126. Get it in, get it in.
Come on, JP, come on.
Copy !req
127. JP, make sure
you get those cherries.
Copy !req
128. - Hurry.
- I got the cherries.
Copy !req
129. Hey, give me a hand.
Copy !req
130. - Man: Let's go.
- Man #2: Can't get it open.
Copy !req
131. - Man #3: Doesn't matter, any of it.
- Man #4: Hey, grab this.
Copy !req
132. Man #3:
Throw it in there.
Copy !req
133. - Man: Pop that locker.
- Man #5: I got it. I'm trying.
Copy !req
134. Get moving!
Copy !req
135. Army gets the new stuff
and we fight with shit
Copy !req
136. my grandfather used.
Copy !req

Crackers.
Copy !req

Copy !req
140. - Hey, you there, halt!
- Man: MP, MP!
Copy !req
141. - Let's go, come on!
- M. P: I said halt!
Copy !req
142. - Come on, JP.
- M. P: Halt!
Copy !req
143. Stop right there.
That's Army gear. Halt!
Copy !req
144. - Try and catch us.
- Thanks for the chow.
Copy !req
145. Here.
Copy !req
146. There you go.
Copy !req
147. - Private Leckie.
- Sir.
Copy !req
148. The Army captain
from the 164th's raising hell
Copy !req
149. about somebody
breaking into his trunk
Copy !req
150. and stealing a box of cigars
and shoes.
Copy !req
151. Not just any shoes.
Copy !req
152. Said they were his favorite pair
of moccasins.
Copy !req
153. Well, that's bad luck
for that captain.
Copy !req
154. Yeah, well, you might
wanna watch where you wear those
Copy !req
155. or smoke any cigars
you might not have.
Copy !req
156. Or drink any hooch
you might not have.
Copy !req
157. Come on, come on,
come on, come on.
Copy !req
158. Anything happen
while I was prospecting?
Copy !req
159. Betty Hutton stopped by
giving out blowjobs.
Copy !req
160. - What'd you get?
Copy !req
161. Well, these...
Copy !req
162. are for me.
Copy !req
163. But if you're nice and mind your manners,
I might give you a puff.
Copy !req
164. These...
Copy !req
165. are for you miscreants.
Copy !req
166. - Oh, my God.
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
167. Traded the crackers
with F Company.
Copy !req
168. - Hey, peaches.
- Peaches?
Copy !req
169. I got the goddamn runs
and you had to get peaches.
Copy !req
170. They were all
out of cheese, Runner.
Copy !req
171. Oh, my God, these are amazing.
Copy !req
172. Ah, where have you been all my life,
you beautiful can?
Copy !req
173. Ah.
Copy !req
174. Peaches.
Your new name is Peaches.
Copy !req
175. - Fuck you.
- You got it, Peaches.
Copy !req
176. - You gotta write Vera about this.
Copy !req
177. Runner,
Copy !req
178. your new nickname
is Old Faithful.
Copy !req
179. Fuck you, Peaches.
Copy !req
180. Bud...
bud, we gotta go.
Copy !req
181. Come on, bud!
Come on! We gotta go!
Copy !req
182. - Ahh!
- Shit.
Copy !req
183. - Fuck!
- Fuck!
Copy !req
184. Son of a bitch!
Copy !req
185. Fuck!
Copy !req
186. You're okay.
We're gonna make it through.
Copy !req
187. - You're okay. You're okay.
- Shit.
Copy !req
188. Shit!
Copy !req
189. - I ain't going anywhere.
- God damn it!
Copy !req
190. Fuck you, fuck you!
Copy !req
191. Ahh!
Copy !req
192. - Basilone: Sound off!
- LaPointe.
Copy !req
193. - Evans.
- Upton.
Copy !req
194. Garland.
Copy !req
195. - Come on, get up.
Copy !req
196. Help me out.
Copy !req
197. I got him.
Copy !req
198. - Evans.
Copy !req
199. - Start digging out.
- I can't, I can't.
Copy !req
200. - Miller.
- Garcia.
Copy !req
201. Let's go. Keep looking for bodies.
Copy !req
202. Man #2:
What about the Jeeps?
Copy !req
203. Direct hit.
Copy !req
204. Some little Jap lady,
weapons plant...
Copy !req
205. she puts in five more grams
of explosives.
Copy !req
206. Man, that could've been us.
Copy !req
207. Basilone, Manny, JP.
Copy !req
208. Briggs, what is it?
Copy !req
209. Briggs.
Copy !req
210. Chesty wants
Dog Company NCOs at his CP.
Copy !req
211. Our battalion will join Hanneken's
Copy !req
212. in our old position
south of the airfield.
Copy !req
213. Now it's been
a quiet sector.
Copy !req
214. It's rough terrain.
Copy !req
215. Topside thinks
the Japs
Copy !req
216. are going to attack
up by the Matanikau,
Copy !req
217. hoping that they can
run their armor
Copy !req
218. up the coast road
right into the airfield.
Copy !req
219. If that happens,
they might pull Hanneken,
Copy !req
220. put him up north to reinforce the 5th
and the 1st Marines.
Copy !req
221. And that is gonna
leave us alone,
Copy !req
222. singled up on the line.
Copy !req
223. Now if the Japs
do break through
Copy !req
224. and they retake
the airfield,
Copy !req
225. our orders are
to take to the jungles
Copy !req
226. and fight as guerrillas.
Copy !req
227. This is not
going to happen.
Copy !req
228. Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
229. Move your men
to the line at Sector 3.
Copy !req
230. - Get it done.
- Men: Aye aye, sir!
Copy !req
231. Basilone,
you and Rodriguez stay behind.
Copy !req
232. Listen, can you spare
this hombre?
Copy !req
233. I need another runner.
Copy !req
234. Hell, Colonel,
we're sick of him.
Copy !req
235. Get your shit.
Meet me back at the CP.
Copy !req
236. Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
237. Good luck, man.
Copy !req
238. Hanneken's being pulled
up north to the Matanikau.
Copy !req
239. Japs will make
their push up there.
Copy !req
240. Where's Briggs
headed?
Copy !req
241. Setting up an outpost south of the line.
Copy !req
242. Fuck it.
We're on our own.
Copy !req
243. Let's go, Marines.
Move move move.
Copy !req
244. You'll be singled up.
Copy !req
245. Just like Chesty said.
Copy !req
246. Okay, Marines, let's get
these supplies up the line.
Copy !req
247. - How did Chesty get all the phones?
- God knows.
Copy !req
248. He wants every gun-pit
on a party line
Copy !req
249. so we got a man
listening at all times.
Copy !req
250. Hey, you want some limit stakes
Copy !req
251. in there, Sergeant?
Copy !req
252. Yeah, go get it.
Copy !req
253. The Japs are on the move.
Copy !req
254. Hoosier and Runner,
I want you to set up an LP.
Copy !req
255. - 30 yards inside the tree line.
- Aye aye, Captain.
Copy !req
256. I want your MG
smack up on the wire,
Copy !req
257. but preset placements
so you can move back.
Copy !req
258. How thin are we
on the line, sir?
Copy !req
259. We're putting
the cooks on the line,
Copy !req
260. but don't have
enough cooks.
Copy !req
261. Best case, we hear the shit
going off on the other side of the ridge.
Copy !req
262. Why the other side
of the ridge?
Copy !req
263. The Japs decided to go around
us to hit the airfield.
Copy !req
264. We're too spread out,
same as Puller and the 7th.
Copy !req
265. Well, same old story
for the 1st Marines.
Copy !req
266. Two-hour watches tonight
all along the line.
Copy !req
267. What you guys smokin'?
Raleighs?
Copy !req
268. That's our allotment.
Copy !req
269. Only the officers
get the Lucky Strikes.
Copy !req
270. Well, I can't have
my platoon suffering.
Copy !req
271. Eyes open, ears up.
Copy !req
272. Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
273. That was a gesture
of a gentleman.
Copy !req
274. - Hoosier: We must really be fucked.
- Runner: Yep.
Copy !req
275. Thanks, Evans.
Copy !req
276. Here, Sergeant,
while it's still dry.
Copy !req
277. Thanks.
Copy !req
278. A buddy of mine's
up there with the 5th,
Copy !req
279. played the trumpet with me
in the Division band.
Copy !req
280. You any good
on the trumpet?
Copy !req
281. Nah, mostly because
I play the trombone.
Copy !req
282. That was a joke.
Copy !req
283. Look at you.
Copy !req
284. We'll make a Marine
out of you yet.
Copy !req
285. It's starting to come faster.
Copy !req
286. Sir, it's Briggs
at the outpost.
Copy !req
287. Puller.
Report, over.
Copy !req
288. I got the whole fucking Jap army
Copy !req
289. headed your way, over.
Copy !req
290. When they're past you,
pull out and hook up with Able Company.
Copy !req
291. 1st Battalion,
hold your fire as long as possible.
Copy !req
292. Say again,
hold your fire.
Copy !req
293. Over.
Copy !req
294. We don't have enough men.
Copy !req
295. - Puller: Get Division on the line.
- Man: Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
296. - Rodriguez.
- Sir.
Copy !req
297. Run as much ammo
down there as you can.
Copy !req
298. Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
299. They're not just coming
across the Matanikau.
Copy !req
300. They're coming
right at us.
Copy !req
301. Squad leaders, give me a head count!
Copy !req
302. - Man #2: First squad's up.
- Man #3: Second squad's up.
Copy !req
303. - Everyone okay?
- Yes, Sergeant.
Copy !req
304. Japs!
Copy !req
305. Japs left, crawling in!

Copy !req
307. - Reload.

Copy !req
314. That's JP for you.
Copy !req
315. - How much ammo you got?
- Half a belt.
Copy !req
316. - That's it?
- Yeah.
Copy !req

Copy !req
324. You're up!
Copy !req
325. Sergeant!
Copy !req
326. Sergeant,
they broke through!
Copy !req
327. They overran us.
Both guns are out.
Copy !req
328. Conserve your ammo.
We're running low.
Copy !req
329. Evans, we're going.
Copy !req
330. We gotta help JP.
Copy !req
331. Where the hell is my glove?
Copy !req
332. - LaPointe, the tripod.
- Aye aye, Sergeant.
Copy !req
333. - Ahh.
Copy !req
334. Cover cover!
Copy !req
335. To my right! To my right!
Copy !req
336. Get it on there.
Copy !req
337. Fill in that gap!
Copy !req
338. Let's go!
Copy !req
339. Ammo ammo!
Copy !req
340. Reload!
Copy !req
341. - How many got through?
- At least 50.
Copy !req
342. - Ahh! Shit!
- You okay?
Copy !req
343. - Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.
- Here they come!
Copy !req
344. Jesus Christ.
Copy !req
345. God damn!
Copy !req
346. I need a head and ammo count.
Copy !req
347. Man #2:
First squad: Two down,
Copy !req
348. 80 rounds remaining.
Copy !req
349. Man #3:
Third squad: Three casualties.
Copy !req
350. - JP, cover me.
- John, wait. What are you doing?
Copy !req
351. John, what are you doing?
Copy !req
352. John, move,
left flank.
Copy !req
353. John,
get outta there!
Copy !req
354. Grenade!
Copy !req
355. - What the hell was that?
- Now you've got a clear field of fire.
Copy !req
356. - A clear field...
- LaPointe, Evans,
Copy !req
357. stay here,
hold this position.
Copy !req
358. - I'm gonna get more ammo.
- Morgan: Hurry back.
Copy !req
359. Ammo for the 30s!
Copy !req
360. Come on, come on,
come on!
Copy !req
361. That's all we got.
Copy !req
362. - Ahh!
- Ahh!
Copy !req
363. Ugh!
Copy !req
364. - Ammo!
- Man: I need cover!
Copy !req
365. Just keep it still.
Copy !req
366. Damn this. Goddamn bugs.
Copy !req
367. Follow this barbed wire
Copy !req
368. and find out where
the bridge is.
Copy !req
369. Is he okay?
Copy !req
370. Yeah, he's okay.
Copy !req
371. He's sleeping.
Copy !req
372. - Manny all right?
- Haven't seen him.
Copy !req
373. Guess I need
a new one, huh?
Copy !req
374. You and me both.
Copy !req
375. - Has he had any morphine?
- No.
Copy !req
376. - Thanks.
Copy !req
377. - Hold him down.
Copy !req
378. Hey, Sergeant,
hand me that pail.
Copy !req
379. Those are
third-degree burns.
Copy !req
380. Have a seat over there
and we'll get to you when we can.
Copy !req
381. Sir, anybody bring in
Sergeant Rodriguez last night?
Copy !req
382. - Manny Rodriguez?
- I wish I could keep track.
Copy !req
383. Check the aid station?
Copy !req
384. Doesn't take long
to get ripe in this heat.
Copy !req
385. Man #2:
They're real damn stupid
Copy !req
386. to keep running into
a machine gun like that.
Copy !req
387. - Man #3: Morning, sir.
- Puller: As you were.
Copy !req
388. Nice work.
Copy !req
389. I'm putting you in
for a medal, John.
Copy !req
390. We're gonna be moving
west toward Lunga, up on the ridge.
Copy !req
391. 164th's gonna take
this position.
Copy !req
392. - Get yourselves some hot chow.
- Aye aye, sir.
Copy !req
393. Captain.
Copy !req
394. It's gone, isn't it?
Copy !req
395. Doesn't matter.
Copy !req
396. I'm enlisting tomorrow.
Copy !req
397. I'd do it tonight
if they were open.
Copy !req
398. - Eugene...
- I don't need your permission, Father.
Copy !req
399. I haven't for some time.
Copy !req
400. The worst thing about treating those
combat boys from the Great War
Copy !req
401. wasn't that they had
had their flesh torn.
Copy !req
402. It was that they had
had their souls torn out.
Copy !req
403. I don't want to look
in your eyes someday
Copy !req
404. and see no spark,
no love, no... no life.
Copy !req
405. That would break my heart.
Copy !req
406. Give me some time
to break the news to your mother.
Copy !req
407. After supper
I'll take Deacon for a walk.
Copy !req
408. That would do it.
Copy !req
409. Thank you, Father.
Copy !req
410. Come on, Deacon.
Copy !req
411. Leckie's voice:
"The foe you gave was strong and brave
Copy !req
412. And unafraid to die.
Copy !req
413. Speak to the Lord
for our comrades,
Copy !req
414. Killed when the battle
seemed lost.
Copy !req
415. They went to meet
a bright defeat...
Copy !req
416. The hero's holocaust.
Copy !req
417. False is the vaunt
of the victor,
Copy !req
418. Empty our living pride.
Copy !req
419. For those who fell
there is no hell...
Copy !req
420. Not for the brave
who died."
Copy !req
421. Say hi for me.
Copy !req
422. - What?
- Vera.
Copy !req
423. Tell her Runner
says Howdy do.
Copy !req
424. It's not a letter,
it's a poem,
Copy !req
425. - an ode.
- Hmm.
Copy !req
426. An epitaph
in celebration of our...
Copy !req
427. glorious victory
at Guadalcanal.
Copy !req
428. Must be tough
to write that poem.
Copy !req
429. I mean what the hell rhymes
with "Guadalcanal"?
Copy !req
430. How fucked are we now
on Guadalcanal?
Copy !req
431. Get your gear and stand by to stand by.
Copy !req
432. We're finally leaving
this shithole.
Copy !req
433. Clear the raft.
Copy !req
434. Man #2: Squad leaders, make sure
all your Marines
Copy !req
435. have all their gear
and all their equipment.
Copy !req
436. Jesus fucking Christ,
out with it.
Copy !req
437. First squad, pick up your gear.
Copy !req
438. As fast
as a bullet goes...
Copy !req
439. It's just a split second.
Copy !req
440. Manny steps to the left
instead of his right...
Copy !req
441. - He slows down...
- Yeah, but he didn't.
Copy !req
442. I mean he was
where he was and, you know...
Copy !req
443. he did what he did.
Copy !req
444. You don't ever
think about that?
Copy !req
445. You know me, John.
Copy !req
446. I try not to think.
Copy !req
447. If it happens,
it happens.
Copy !req
448. We should get moving.
Copy !req
449. Yeah.
Copy !req
450. No chow till 1400.
I'm sorry.
Copy !req
451. Hey, we heard
there was coffee.
Copy !req
452. Coffee?
Copy !req
453. Shit, I can get you guys
some coffee.
Copy !req
454. Milk and sugar?
Copy !req
455. So how bad was it?
Copy !req
456. 'Cause I heard
it was bad.
Copy !req
457. - From who?
- What do you mean?
Copy !req
458. I mean before
you got here,
Copy !req
459. had you ever even
heard of this place?
Copy !req
460. Guadalcanal?
Copy !req
461. Everybody's heard
of Guadalcanal
Copy !req
462. and the 1st
Marine Division.
Copy !req
463. You guys are
on the front page
Copy !req
464. of every newspaper
in America.
Copy !req
465. You're heroes back home.
