This film contains very strong language and some violent scenes | 0:00:34 | 0:00:41 | |
Nice shot, Hamb. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
I drilled a little to the left. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
It's 15 feet from the goddamn hole. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
I miscalculated the wind by a couple knots. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
Give me a break. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
Well, you know, it's all a matter of degrees. | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
The difference between the big money and not making the cut is razor-thin. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
Well, I wasn't thinking about qualifying for the Masters. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
Kind of had my sights set on the NBA. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
HELICOPTER WHIRRS OVERHEAD | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
Well, your hook shot's working, Scotty. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
Nice shot. | 0:01:40 | 0:01:41 | |
What do you think I'm doing wrong here? | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
I think you're standing too close to the ball. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
Yeah. Pretty bad, huh? | 0:01:54 | 0:01:55 | |
After you hit it. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
..Yeah? | 0:01:57 | 0:01:58 | |
They want you at ops right away, sir. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
-MAN: -Russian tanks, 8-inch guns, and APCs. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:22 | |
Seventh Air Force intelligence has been indicating | 0:04:22 | 0:04:25 | |
the possibility of a North Vietnamese/VC offensive. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:28 | |
Now, these photos confirm it. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:30 | |
NVA troops moving down the Ho Chi Minh Trail, | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
south of the DMZ, near Quang Tri. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
Now, they'll combine with Charlie | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
and try to hit us hard, | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
probably in several places at once. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:46 | |
Glad you could make it, Colonel. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:49 | |
Sorry, sir. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
Strategic Air Command's putting everything it's got | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
in the air two days from now and will just clobber the hell out of them. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
If we don't stop their movement, | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
or at least slow it down to a trickle, | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
our ground troops are going to take heavy casualties. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
Now, our job remains the same, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
fly alongside the bombers, | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
throw down your electronic smoke screens, | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
jam the missile radars. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:15 | |
Sir, why don't we put our surveillance aircraft up there first, sir? | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
Have them fly the same route the big boys are going to fly on their scheduled run. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:21 | |
Missile reaction can be recorded, | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
launch sites plotted. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
Send the fighter jocks in there to just knock the hell out of them. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
I really appreciate you volunteering us for this flight, Hamb. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
Didn't think you had your sights set on being a full bird. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
I've got my sights set on a condo | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
on the seventh fairway at Tucson National. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
Six months from now, that's where the old lady and me will be. | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
That sounds awfully exciting(!) | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
You think that's exciting? | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
You should see the deck furniture. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
Ha! | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
Mark. Start your music. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
I've got a solid growl. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:23 | |
SAM on scope. I confirm a launch. | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
I got him. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
Goddamn it. I didn't think they had SAMs this far south. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
That's why we're here. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
Have to go back and give them the bad news. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
I've got another one. | 0:06:38 | 0:06:40 | |
SAM on scope. 2, salvo 3. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
They're changing frequencies. I've got one. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:46 | |
Hold it steady. Got two. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
-Got one visual. -Break left! | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
Break left! LOUD BUZZING | 0:06:51 | 0:06:53 | |
It's tracking us! It's locked! | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
We're hit! Everybody get out! | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
We're going down! | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
We're burning up! | 0:07:05 | 0:07:06 | |
Hit by SAM! Mayday! Mayday! | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
I've lost it. Crew eject! Crew eject! | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
I can't get out! | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
Red Scout One hit by SAMs! | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
Punch out, Hamb! | 0:07:17 | 0:07:18 | |
Come on, Scotty! Let's get out! | 0:07:18 | 0:07:19 | |
Right behind you! | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
Mayday! Mayday! | 0:07:21 | 0:07:22 | |
Punch out, Scotty! Somebody punch out! | 0:07:32 | 0:07:35 | |

This is FAC 02, call sign Birddog. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
Identify yourself. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
Bat 21. I'm the parachute above you, one o'clock. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
BEEPING | 0:08:16 | 0:08:18 | |
Have you in sight. Turn off your beeper, Bat 21, | 0:08:18 | 0:08:22 | |
or Charlie will get to you before the Jolly Greens. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
Will advise. Happy landings. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:27 | |
Roger. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Bat 21, get out of that paddy! | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
Hooches to the south. Head north to the tree line. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
Repeat, head north to the tree line. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
Repeat, tree line north. Roger that? | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
Negative. I want to wait for the choppers. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Negative. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
Let's get the basic relationship down here. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
I'm the lifeguard. You're the drowning man. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:36 | |
If you relax, I can bring you to shore. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
If you fight me, then I'll have to slap you around. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:41 | |
Now, get your ass in gear, mister! | 0:09:41 | 0:09:43 | |
Bat 21, Charlie's firing mortars from the south. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
Advise at tree line. Repeat, advise at tree line. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
PLANE APPROACHES | 0:10:48 | 0:10:50 | |
Birddog, this is Bat 21. I can't go any further. | 0:10:51 | 0:10:55 | |
Get the helis from this position. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:56 | |
-Copy, Bat 21. -What about the others? | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
Anybody else make it out? | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
None reported. We're still looking. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
Just stay calm. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
I'll try. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
Don't worry, Bat 21. We'll get you out. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:11 | |
But it's not going to happen today. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
All choppers busy evac-ing fire base at Quang Tri. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
Company of guns overrun by Charlie. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
Jolly Greens will pick you up in the morning. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
Say again, your last transmission. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
Repeat, Jolly Greens will pick you up in the morning. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
There will be no pick-up today. Copy, Bat 21? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
EXPLOSIONS IN THE DISTANCE | 0:11:41 | 0:11:43 | |
I copy, Birddog. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
OK, listen, Bat 21. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
I'm running low on juice. Have to return to base. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
Birddog, thanks for your help. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:55 | |
That's what I'm here for. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
Birddog, you going to be back? | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
That's the plan. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:01 | |
Birddog signing off. Keep your head down. See you later. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |

SITAR MUSIC PLAYS | 0:13:08 | 0:13:10 | |
HE CHANTS | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
How was your flight, sir? | 0:13:40 | 0:13:41 | |
Same old shit, bad movies and terrible food. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:46 | |
Don't you, uh... don't you think | 0:13:46 | 0:13:50 | |
you're pushing it a little, Captain? | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
You've almost doubled the base record. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:55 | |
The base record? Sheesh! | 0:13:55 | 0:13:57 | |
I'll pin a medal on my chest(!) | 0:13:57 | 0:13:58 | |
Would you check my right aileron? | 0:13:58 | 0:14:01 | |
It's sticking a bit, OK? | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
Yeah, I got to replace it, sir. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
How long will that take? | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
Well, I can borrow one from 453. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:15 | |
That's Anderson's ship. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:19 | |
The way he flies, Captain, he'll never miss it, sir. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:21 | |
Ha-ha-ha! I like your initiative, Sergeant. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:26 | |
Keep it up. | 0:14:26 | 0:14:28 | |
Well, we've pulled our share of pilots out of there, | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
but never a 53-year-old Lieutenant Colonel. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
A 53-year-old Lieutenant Colonel? | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
That's right. Navigator on that EB. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:41 | |
They just gave me crew codes | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
and no names and ranks. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
Well, I am told that Hambleton | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
is one of our top people. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:51 | |
He's an electronics countermeasure expert. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
I am told that the Communists | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
will have a dossier on him that thick. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
So, in the morning, when we get our birds back, | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
we're going to go in and get him. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:02 | |
Seventh Air Force does not want Charlie | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
getting their hands on him. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
We'll get him tomorrow then, sir. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:07 | |
In the meantime, I want you | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
to go back out there tonight. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:10 | |
But he's not going anywhere, Colonel. | 0:15:10 | 0:15:12 | |
I know, because I'm going to make damn certain he's secure. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
Then why don't you send Anderson? | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
Didn't he just get his pilot's licence? | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
You'd better watch it, Captain. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
Look, sir, I'm tired, I'm two weeks short, | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
and that area is pretty hot, | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
and I don't want to get shot down | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
on some public-relations mission, OK? | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
All right, then, I'll make it easy for you, Captain. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:38 | |
It's an order, and you damn well will carry it out. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:41 | |
Is that clear? | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
Yes, sir. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:47 | |
Thank you for the ride, sir. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |

THE OTHER MEN GROAN | 0:19:32 | 0:19:33 | |
Come on! Chickenshits! Chickenshits! | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
No way. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
OK. Hey, Clarky, pull up a chair, | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
before these pigeons are totally penniless. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:40 | |
Another time. I got to go back up again tonight. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
Going back up again? | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
Damn, putting in the hours. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
Yeah. Tell Walker. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:48 | |
I got to start carrying my sleeping bag with me. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:51 | |
OK... I got two pair. | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
Three sixes. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
I've got two pairs of sevens and your other six. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
Ha-ha-ha! | 0:19:58 | 0:19:59 | |
Damn! I thought you newspaper boys | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
would be a bit sharper than that. What rag do you write for again? | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
New York Times. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Oh, yeah, I picked one up once. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
You read, Ross? Probably stole it from some derelict in the park, | 0:20:09 | 0:20:12 | |
who was using it as a blanket. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:13 | |
I gave him a nickel! | 0:20:13 | 0:20:14 | |
I couldn't find the comics, so I returned it. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
Did you get your money back? | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
Yeah. I ended up finishing a pint of radiator fluid with the guy. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
It was about then I figured it was time to enlist, | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
and here I am, the best goddamn evac pilot in 'Nam! | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
Tell it, Ross. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:28 | |
Flying those choppers every day scrambles up your brains. You get facts confused. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:31 | |
Ross here thinks that it takes some skill | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
to keep one of those eggbeaters up in the air. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
Typical FAC pilot. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:36 | |
He labours under the misapprehension | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
that he is the most Sierra-Hotel cowboy in the Air Force. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
The real truth is, he flies | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
a fucking VW Microbus with wings. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
Well, this VW pilot | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
flies ten feet off the deck, | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
draws fire from SAMs down to eight-year-olds | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
with slingshots and pebbles. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:52 | |
Ha-ha-ha! A confirmation on that. | 0:20:52 | 0:20:55 | |
A lot of times, I've seen Clark | 0:20:55 | 0:20:56 | |
return here... You want one? | 0:20:56 | 0:20:58 | |
..with leaves in his teeth. | 0:20:58 | 0:20:59 | |
Because... | 0:20:59 | 0:21:00 | |
Two. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:01 | |
..us black folks ain't got no depth perception. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
So we gots to fly what we gets. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
MEN LAUGH | 0:21:06 | 0:21:07 | |
They won't let us fly fast aeroplanes! | 0:21:07 | 0:21:10 | |
You got to be particular in this man's Air Force. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
Now, right here, you are looking at a perfect flyboy profile. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
The kind of guy you can trust when the shit hits the fan. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
Boom. It's hit the fan, man! | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
See you later, Clarky. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:30 | |
Later, Clarky. | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |
Don't wait up for me, OK? | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
Take care. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
PLANE FLIES OVERHEAD | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
Birddog, Bat 21. Is that you? | 0:21:50 | 0:21:53 | |
Roger, Bat 21. It's me. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:56 | |
I need a visual reference, so I can stay in range. | 0:21:56 | 0:22:00 | |
You'll need one. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:02 | |
Got you, Bat 21. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
Positive contact. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
I appreciate you dropping by, Birddog. | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
That's what I'm here for. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
Charlie walked by my hole about an hour ago. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:46 | |
How many? | 0:22:46 | 0:22:47 | |
10 or 12. It seems to be quiet now. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:52 | |
Just stay calm. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
You'll be out of there in the morning. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
Birddog, could you do me a personal favour? | 0:22:58 | 0:23:02 | |
Shoot. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:04 | |
Get in touch with my wife. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:06 | |
I was supposed to call her tonight. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:08 | |
She'll be scared to death. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:10 | |
Her name is Gwen. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:11 | |
I know. I pulled your personal file. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
I got her address and number, | 0:23:13 | 0:23:15 | |
but I think you should let it ride for a day. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
She may not be too excited | 0:23:18 | 0:23:19 | |
about where you decided to spend the night. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
Yeah, we'll do it your way. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
I'm glad somebody's thinking clearly. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:29 | |
How long you been flying Oscar-Deuces? | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
Too long. Due to rotate soon. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:35 | |
You know, I'm probably the oldest captain in the Air Force. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
How old are you? | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Would you believe, 35 in June? | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
Ha-ha-ha! That's not very old. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
Shit. Sometimes, it is. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
Are you married, Birddog? | 0:23:51 | 0:23:53 | |
Yeah. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
Got a wife and kid back home. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
I've been thinking about my old lady a lot | 0:24:07 | 0:24:09 | |
since I've been down here. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
Funny how that works. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
She keeps bugging me that my mind | 0:24:16 | 0:24:19 | |
is someplace else when I'm with her. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:26 | |
Any news on the other crew members? | 0:24:26 | 0:24:29 | |
No. No other chutes were spotted. | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
We're still searching for the wreckage. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:33 | |
The jungle is hot. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:35 | |
Has anyone contacted Scott's wife? | 0:24:35 | 0:24:37 | |
Yeah. That's been taken care of. | 0:24:37 | 0:24:41 | |
THEY SPEAK VIETNAMESE | 0:24:41 | 0:24:43 | |
I feel like a real jerk. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
I'm the big expert on this deal, | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
and I get us shot down. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
Don't beat yourself up, Bat 21. It happens. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:56 | |
You OK for the night, Bat 21? | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
Yeah. No problem. Thanks for checking in. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
Then I'm RTB. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
Tuck yourself in. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:11 | |
Carpool will pick you up at first light. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
This is Birddog signing off, Bat 21. | 0:25:14 | 0:25:18 | |
ENGINES IN DISTANCE | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
Birddog, Birddog, this is Bat 21. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
Are you in the vicinity? | 0:27:30 | 0:27:32 | |
Roger, Bat 21. | 0:27:32 | 0:27:35 | |
Just about to give you a wake-up call. | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
Birddog, take a look at the intersection | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
of hollywood and vine. Rush-hour traffic. | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
Could be a problem for our Jolly Greens. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:44 | |
Roger, Bat 21. Stand by. | 0:27:44 | 0:27:47 | |
Let's put some hits on these guys. | 0:27:47 | 0:27:49 | |
I got a good visual. I'll call them. | 0:27:49 | 0:27:52 | |
You sure? You're pretty close to the action. You might get nicked. | 0:27:52 | 0:27:56 | |
I can see the crossroads from here. | 0:27:56 | 0:27:57 | |
About half a click south of the rice paddy. | 0:27:57 | 0:28:00 | |
Mark it. | 0:28:00 | 0:28:01 | |
You pulling rank on me, Bat 21? | 0:28:01 | 0:28:04 | |
I'll take my chances. | 0:28:04 | 0:28:06 | |
You got it. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:07 | |
Here you go. Enjoy the show! | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
MEN SHOUTING/MACHINE GUNS FIRING | 0:28:18 | 0:28:21 | |
Birddog to Crabtree, I marked my targets. What are you hauling? | 0:28:25 | 0:28:30 | |
Roger, Birddog. This is Crabtree, | 0:28:30 | 0:28:33 | |
coming in from the south | 0:28:33 | 0:28:35 | |
with a full load of snake and nape. | 0:28:35 | 0:28:37 | |
Roger, Crabtree. You see my smoke? | 0:28:37 | 0:28:39 | |
Uh...affirmative, Birddog. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
Waste the area, but remember, | 0:28:41 | 0:28:43 | |
we have a friendly in the vicinity. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:45 | |
Try not to ruin his day with a stray frag. | 0:28:45 | 0:28:48 | |
Don't worry, Birddog. | 0:28:48 | 0:28:50 | |
We can thread a needle if we have to. | 0:28:50 | 0:28:52 | |
Thread a needle, my ass. Shit. Ha-ha! | 0:28:52 | 0:28:56 | |
Birddog, on your next pass, | 0:29:44 | 0:29:46 | |
move just east of the intersection. | 0:29:46 | 0:29:48 | |
You got camouflaged tanks. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:51 | |
Roger, Bat 21. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:55 | |
Crabtree, tanks just east of intersection, | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
Missed on first pass. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:00 | |
Roger, Birddog. | 0:30:00 | 0:30:03 | |
MACHINE GUNS FIRE | 0:30:03 | 0:30:05 | |
We're Winchester, Birddog. Please assess damage. | 0:30:31 | 0:30:36 | |
Additional targets still appear active. | 0:30:36 | 0:30:38 | |
Copy, Crabtree. Return to base. Will advise. | 0:30:38 | 0:30:41 | |
MAN SHOUTS | 0:30:45 | 0:30:47 | |

Uh, Bat 21 from Birddog. | 0:31:13 | 0:31:17 | |
Uh, Bat 21? | 0:31:17 | 0:31:20 | |
Bat 21 from Birddog. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:24 | |
Do you copy, Bat 21? | 0:31:24 | 0:31:26 | |
Go, Birddog. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:30 | |
You intact? | 0:31:30 | 0:31:31 | |
Affirmative. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
Nice quarterbacking. | 0:31:36 | 0:31:37 | |
Maybe we ought to leave you in for the second half. | 0:31:37 | 0:31:40 | |
Negative. I've seen enough. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:42 | |
I guess it's different on the ground. | 0:31:42 | 0:31:45 | |
It's too damn close. | 0:31:47 | 0:31:49 | |
Bat 21, your pick-up may be delayed. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:52 | |
The area is still too hot. | 0:31:52 | 0:31:55 | |
Negative! Negative! It's got to be today, goddamn it! | 0:31:55 | 0:31:58 | |
I repeat, area's still too hot. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:01 | |
It's a war zone, goddamn it! What do you expect?! | 0:32:01 | 0:32:04 | |
Relax, Bat 21. We'll get you out at first light. | 0:32:04 | 0:32:07 | |
Jesus Christ! | 0:32:07 | 0:32:09 | |
Just stay calm. Birddog will deliver. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:13 | |
Negative, Birddog. Bat 21 has a plan. | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |
I worked it out last night. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:17 | |
Birddog would like to RTB, refuel, | 0:32:17 | 0:32:20 | |
and confirm before you move. | 0:32:20 | 0:32:22 | |
Negative, Birddog. Not enough time. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:24 | |
Bat 21! Bat 21! | 0:32:32 | 0:32:35 | |
Birddog would like to confirm before you move. | 0:32:35 | 0:32:38 | |
Negative. Bat's on the move. | 0:32:40 | 0:32:42 | |
Heading for the swanee. | 0:32:42 | 0:32:44 | |
Swanee? | 0:32:44 | 0:32:45 | |
Repeat, heading for the swanee, | 0:32:45 | 0:32:48 | |
Like in the song. "Swanee, swanee. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
"How I love you. How I love you." | 0:32:50 | 0:32:52 | |
Yeah, yeah, I know the song. | 0:32:52 | 0:32:53 | |
"Swanee, How I Love You." | 0:32:53 | 0:32:56 | |
Uh-huh. I think I broke the code, Bat 21. | 0:32:58 | 0:33:01 | |
But still do not advise. | 0:33:01 | 0:33:03 | |
Route takes you through too many unfriendlies. | 0:33:03 | 0:33:05 | |
Birddog has no way to track you. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:07 | |
I worked out a front nine to avoid the hazards. | 0:33:07 | 0:33:09 | |
Copy this. Add zero to yardage. | 0:33:09 | 0:33:13 | |
Holes three, six and eight at Shaw. | 0:33:13 | 0:33:16 | |
South one and 17 at Macdill. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:20 | |
Coming in on two, 12, 14, and 18 at Hickum. | 0:33:20 | 0:33:24 | |
How do you copy? | 0:33:24 | 0:33:26 | |
Copy, but I still don't know what the hell you're talking about. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:28 | |
Contact Colonel Douglass at Kerat Air Base for instructions. | 0:33:32 | 0:33:36 | |
I'm not sure this is a good idea, Bat 21. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:40 | |
Bat 21 is teeing off from the blue markers now. Out. | 0:33:40 | 0:33:45 | |
Uh, Bat 21, from Birddog. | 0:33:47 | 0:33:51 | |
Uh, Bat 21, Bat 21, from Birddog. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:55 | |
Bat... Oh, shit! | 0:33:55 | 0:33:57 | |
You want to tell me about it? | 0:34:14 | 0:34:18 | |
Hambleton's moving on me. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:19 | |
Where's he going? | 0:34:19 | 0:34:21 | |
I don't know. He gave me some kind of goddamned code, | 0:34:21 | 0:34:25 | |
after I decided it was too hot to pick him up. | 0:34:25 | 0:34:27 | |
-Yeah, I heard you brought in the flyboys. -Mm-mmm... | 0:34:27 | 0:34:30 | |
That was his idea. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
That's some kind of tough bastard. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:34 | |
Shit! | 0:34:34 | 0:34:36 | |
I mean, he must realise | 0:34:36 | 0:34:38 | |
they aren't always that accurate. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:40 | |
I've seen frags drop 30 feet in front of my windscreen. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:43 | |
Mm-hmm. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:44 | |
Wait, wait, wait. Where are you going? | 0:34:44 | 0:34:47 | |
Sit down and finish your beer. Sit down. | 0:34:47 | 0:34:49 | |
I got to go up again. I got to find him. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:52 | |
You're spending more time in the air than on Mother Earth. | 0:34:52 | 0:34:55 | |
You look like hell. | 0:34:55 | 0:34:57 | |
Well, I need the overtime. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:02 | |
You are going for a DFFC, aren't you? | 0:35:02 | 0:35:05 | |
A Distinguished Fucking Flying Cross. | 0:35:05 | 0:35:07 | |
Man, I must have vapour-locked, or something. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:10 | |
"FAC pilot saves Colonel!" | 0:35:10 | 0:35:14 | |
You're gearing up for the ceremony. A full dress parade, | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
a nice shiny medal to show the folks back home, | 0:35:16 | 0:35:18 | |
and a newfound respect in the military community. | 0:35:18 | 0:35:21 | |
Shit! Clarky, stick around. Come on. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:24 | |
We'll take a chopper up. | 0:35:24 | 0:35:25 | |
We'll shoot a few cows and have a barbecue. What do you say? | 0:35:25 | 0:35:28 | |
Ross, not tonight, yeah? | 0:35:28 | 0:35:31 | |
Don't you think you've got | 0:35:31 | 0:35:33 | |
a little obsessive behaviour going here? | 0:35:33 | 0:35:36 | |
Obsessive behaviour? Me, obsessive behaviour? | 0:35:36 | 0:35:39 | |
Man, I recall some of the crazy, lunatic shit | 0:35:39 | 0:35:41 | |
that you've done in your machine. | 0:35:41 | 0:35:42 | |
Maybe I like hauling those sorry dudes out of the bush. | 0:35:42 | 0:35:46 | |
Maybe I like to see their big, sloppy smiles when I drag them into the chopper, | 0:35:46 | 0:35:49 | |
because you just know they thought they were going to spend the rest of the war dodging punji sticks, | 0:35:49 | 0:35:53 | |
snakes, and gooks, and I hand them a camel and a candy bar, | 0:35:53 | 0:35:56 | |
and they smile like when they got laid for the first time. | 0:35:56 | 0:35:59 | |
I'm not into this death-and-destruction bullshit either, | 0:35:59 | 0:36:02 | |
or flying fucking medals. | 0:36:02 | 0:36:03 | |
You know, all I want to do is bring the old man back. | 0:36:03 | 0:36:08 | |
OK... Go on. Get him through the night. | 0:36:09 | 0:36:13 | |
I'll haul his ass out in the morning. | 0:36:13 | 0:36:16 | |
OK, Birddog? | 0:36:16 | 0:36:18 | |

No, no, no. Number 14 at Hickum. | 0:42:00 | 0:42:02 | |
Right, Hickum. | 0:42:02 | 0:42:05 | |
Yeah, the par four across the water. | 0:42:05 | 0:42:08 | |
That's the one. Hold the phone a minute. | 0:42:08 | 0:42:10 | |
Uh, Captain, | 0:42:10 | 0:42:12 | |
Uh...number 14 at Hickum, 390 yards. | 0:42:12 | 0:42:15 | |
Draw it in. | 0:42:15 | 0:42:17 | |
Don't forget to add the zero. | 0:42:17 | 0:42:19 | |
Come here, Clark. | 0:42:19 | 0:42:20 | |
Colonel, that puts our puzzle together. | 0:42:20 | 0:42:22 | |
Now let's hope the damn thing works. ..Right. | 0:42:22 | 0:42:26 | |
Yeah, I will keep you abreast of everything. | 0:42:26 | 0:42:29 | |
Right, I will. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:30 | |
And thank you. Mm-hmm. | 0:42:30 | 0:42:33 | |
What have we got, sir? | 0:42:34 | 0:42:37 | |
I got a lot to tell you about your boy. | 0:42:37 | 0:42:41 | |
Seems like Hambleton was flying | 0:42:41 | 0:42:42 | |
a pave-penny mission for a major bombing strike, Captain. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:46 | |
He came up with the idea himself, | 0:42:46 | 0:42:48 | |
and then he volunteers to go. | 0:42:48 | 0:42:50 | |
Right man for the job and all that. | 0:42:50 | 0:42:52 | |
Sounds like to me he must have written the damn manuals. | 0:42:52 | 0:42:54 | |
Wouldn't Charlie like to get | 0:42:54 | 0:42:56 | |
their hands on him, open him up? Shit. | 0:42:56 | 0:42:59 | |
It doesn't get any better. | 0:42:59 | 0:43:01 | |
The strike was scheduled for 07:00 hours tomorrow. | 0:43:01 | 0:43:04 | |
Their objective, carpet-bomb | 0:43:04 | 0:43:06 | |
this crossroads where Hambleton is | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
and everything around it for 8 kilometres. | 0:43:08 | 0:43:11 | |
HE SIGHS | 0:43:11 | 0:43:14 | |
That's what he was talking about. | 0:43:16 | 0:43:18 | |
Exactly. | 0:43:18 | 0:43:21 | |
He won't make it. | 0:43:24 | 0:43:25 | |
They're going to blast the whole goddamn area, huh? | 0:43:25 | 0:43:29 | |
I'm fucking blowing my brains out | 0:43:29 | 0:43:31 | |
trying to get this motherfucker home, | 0:43:31 | 0:43:32 | |
and they're talking about carpet-bombing! | 0:43:32 | 0:43:34 | |
Goddamn it, Captain... | 0:43:34 | 0:43:36 | |
Now, wait a minute... | 0:43:36 | 0:43:37 | |
Shut up, goddamn it! | 0:43:37 | 0:43:39 | |
I bought us 24 hours. | 0:43:41 | 0:43:44 | |
That's the best I could do. | 0:43:44 | 0:43:46 | |
Had to put my ass on the line to get that. | 0:43:46 | 0:43:50 | |
I told Seventh Air we'd get him out of there. | 0:43:50 | 0:43:53 | |
That's exactly what we're going to do. | 0:43:53 | 0:43:55 | |
Nice work, Colonel. | 0:44:01 | 0:44:03 | |
Let's don't start jumping up and down, | 0:44:03 | 0:44:05 | |
throwing babies in the air yet, Captain. | 0:44:05 | 0:44:08 | |
We'd better wait and see | 0:44:08 | 0:44:10 | |
if Hambleton's code works. | 0:44:10 | 0:44:12 | |
Hmm. You got any ideas? | 0:44:12 | 0:44:14 | |
Douglass knew what Hambleton | 0:44:14 | 0:44:16 | |
was talking about right away. | 0:44:16 | 0:44:18 | |
I mean, they're both golf fanatics. | 0:44:18 | 0:44:20 | |
They play three times a week. Hambleton's got a four handicap. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:23 | |
With all that in mind, come here. I want to show you something. | 0:44:23 | 0:44:26 | |
..Thank you, Howard. | 0:44:26 | 0:44:27 | |
Now...stay with me, Captain. | 0:44:29 | 0:44:31 | |
This gets pretty wild. | 0:44:31 | 0:44:33 | |
Hambleton wants to get here to the river, to the swanee, right? | 0:44:33 | 0:44:38 | |
Well, how's he going to do that? | 0:44:38 | 0:44:39 | |
I mean, he's not about to just tear ass out through there | 0:44:39 | 0:44:42 | |
and lose contact with you. | 0:44:42 | 0:44:43 | |
Hell, he's dead meat. | 0:44:43 | 0:44:44 | |
On the other hand, he can't get on the radio | 0:44:44 | 0:44:47 | |
and tell you where he's going. Charlie's got VHF too. | 0:44:47 | 0:44:49 | |
So he gives you an imaginary nine holes of golf. | 0:44:49 | 0:44:52 | |
When you lay those nine holes over our map, Captain... | 0:44:52 | 0:44:54 | |
there's what they look like. | 0:44:54 | 0:44:58 | |
Now we can track him, | 0:44:58 | 0:45:00 | |
now that we know where he is. | 0:45:00 | 0:45:02 | |
We know exactly where he comes out at the end | 0:45:02 | 0:45:04 | |
because he didn't pick those holes at random. | 0:45:04 | 0:45:06 | |
They come off three Air Force golf courses | 0:45:06 | 0:45:08 | |
he's played a hundred times, | 0:45:08 | 0:45:10 | |
knows them like the back of his hand. | 0:45:10 | 0:45:12 | |
Now, let's take these three | 0:45:12 | 0:45:13 | |
that come off Shaw Air Force base. | 0:45:13 | 0:45:15 | |
First hole, 410-yard par-four dogleg. | 0:45:15 | 0:45:18 | |
We add that zero Hambleton's talking about, | 0:45:18 | 0:45:20 | |
it reads 4,100 yards, | 0:45:20 | 0:45:22 | |
and the first green puts him right there. | 0:45:22 | 0:45:24 | |
Next green, here and here. | 0:45:24 | 0:45:26 | |
These two holes come off the front and back of Macdill. | 0:45:26 | 0:45:30 | |
These four finishing holes here, | 0:45:30 | 0:45:31 | |
according to Douglass, | 0:45:31 | 0:45:33 | |
are the holes Hambleton birdied | 0:45:33 | 0:45:34 | |
the last time he played Hickum | 0:45:34 | 0:45:36 | |
to shoot a one-under-par 71. | 0:45:36 | 0:45:38 | |
Pretty good score, huh? Ha-ha-ha! | 0:45:38 | 0:45:40 | |
Clever son of a bitch. | 0:45:40 | 0:45:43 | |
You play golf, Captain? | 0:45:43 | 0:45:44 | |
No, sir. Golf wasn't big in my neighbourhood. | 0:45:44 | 0:45:47 | |
All right. Well, all these holes are on these cards, | 0:45:47 | 0:45:50 | |
and this is a glossary of golf terminology. | 0:45:50 | 0:45:52 | |
Now, you're going to communicate with Hambleton | 0:45:52 | 0:45:55 | |
using these terms, because Charlie won't know | 0:45:55 | 0:45:57 | |
what in the hell you're talking about | 0:45:57 | 0:45:59 | |
until it's too late, anyway. | 0:45:59 | 0:46:01 | |
So get busy. Learn this. | 0:46:01 | 0:46:03 | |
That's the key to Hambleton's code. | 0:46:03 | 0:46:06 | |
Dogleg. | 0:46:09 | 0:46:11 | |
Dogleg. | 0:46:11 | 0:46:14 | |
Hmm. | 0:46:15 | 0:46:16 | |
Does Anderson know you borrowed his prop? | 0:47:22 | 0:47:24 | |
No, sir. | 0:47:24 | 0:47:25 | |
I'd love to be there when he tries to take off. | 0:47:25 | 0:47:27 | |
He's going to need a hell of a long runway, Captain. | 0:47:27 | 0:47:30 | |
Yeah. | 0:47:30 | 0:47:31 | |
Look, at the risk of being out of line, sir, | 0:47:31 | 0:47:34 | |
I think you look a bit overextended. | 0:47:34 | 0:47:35 | |
Now, in the best interest of the mission and your personal safety, | 0:47:35 | 0:47:39 | |
I put together this tape. | 0:47:39 | 0:47:40 | |
Some serious sounds, Captain. | 0:47:40 | 0:47:42 | |
They're guaranteed to keep you alert. | 0:47:42 | 0:47:44 | |
You're quite a man, Rumbaugh. | 0:47:44 | 0:47:48 | |
You just have a good flight, all right, sir? | 0:47:48 | 0:47:51 | |

Birddog, this is Bat 21. | 0:50:00 | 0:50:02 | |
I read you loud and clear. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:04 | |
MUSIC STOPS | 0:50:04 | 0:50:05 | |
Copy, Bat 21. It's good to hear from you. I thought I'd lost you. | 0:50:05 | 0:50:09 | |
It's good to hear your voice, Birddog. | 0:50:09 | 0:50:13 | |
I'm at the third fairway, | 0:50:13 | 0:50:15 | |
trying to get a fix on your position. | 0:50:15 | 0:50:17 | |
You broke the code. | 0:50:17 | 0:50:18 | |
I'm working on it. It's not an easy game to play. | 0:50:18 | 0:50:21 | |
Uh, what is your... | 0:50:21 | 0:50:23 | |
..lie? | 0:50:26 | 0:50:27 | |
Birddog, I'm 150 yards northwest of the third green. | 0:50:27 | 0:50:31 | |
I'll give you a signal, white one. | 0:50:31 | 0:50:35 | |
Got you marked. | 0:50:44 | 0:50:45 | |
Any problems? | 0:50:52 | 0:50:53 | |
I ran into an unfriendly a while back. | 0:50:53 | 0:50:56 | |
I had to do some backtracking. | 0:50:56 | 0:50:58 | |
You all right? | 0:50:58 | 0:51:00 | |
My landing gear's a little damaged, | 0:51:00 | 0:51:02 | |
but it's still serviceable. | 0:51:02 | 0:51:04 | |
I'm sorry to hear about that. | 0:51:04 | 0:51:07 | |
Listen, Birddog... | 0:51:10 | 0:51:12 | |
you got to get me out of here. | 0:51:12 | 0:51:15 | |
Affirmative. | 0:51:15 | 0:51:17 | |
I'm here to tell you the good news. | 0:51:17 | 0:51:19 | |
We bought 24 hours. Copy that? | 0:51:19 | 0:51:21 | |
You bet I copy. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:24 | |
You must have friends in high places | 0:51:24 | 0:51:26 | |
who want to see your face again. | 0:51:26 | 0:51:28 | |
That's nice to know. | 0:51:28 | 0:51:30 | |
Uh, Bat 21... | 0:51:30 | 0:51:33 | |
stay put and don't transmit. | 0:51:33 | 0:51:35 | |
I have business to take care of. | 0:51:35 | 0:51:37 | |

..I killed a man today. | 0:52:14 | 0:52:17 | |
Uh... Roger that. | 0:52:19 | 0:52:21 | |
He wasn't even a soldier. | 0:52:23 | 0:52:26 | |
He just kept coming. | 0:52:27 | 0:52:29 | |
I couldn't stop him. | 0:52:29 | 0:52:31 | |
Uh...I understand. | 0:52:34 | 0:52:37 | |
I didn't want to do it. | 0:52:38 | 0:52:42 | |
I never had to do anything like that before in my life. | 0:52:42 | 0:52:45 | |
I've always been sitting in an airplane | 0:52:46 | 0:52:48 | |
at 30,000 feet with a cup of coffee in front of me. | 0:52:48 | 0:52:52 | |
Look here, Bat 21, I never met you, | 0:52:54 | 0:52:56 | |
but you don't sound like a killer. | 0:52:56 | 0:52:58 | |
I'm sure you couldn't stop it from happening. | 0:52:58 | 0:53:00 | |
Now, the important thing is to put it behind you. | 0:53:00 | 0:53:04 | |
EXPLOSION | 0:53:06 | 0:53:08 | |

Yeah, Birddog, I'm here. | 0:53:29 | 0:53:31 | |
All right. | 0:53:31 | 0:53:33 | |
I want you to listen real hard. | 0:53:33 | 0:53:35 | |
I know you're hurting, but we have to deal with | 0:53:35 | 0:53:38 | |
getting you back to the clubhouse. | 0:53:38 | 0:53:40 | |
We're going to pick you up at first light. | 0:53:40 | 0:53:43 | |

The green will be our LZ. | 0:53:49 | 0:53:51 | |
That's a long goddamn hole. | 0:53:53 | 0:53:56 | |
Yeah. There's a few hazards, | 0:53:56 | 0:53:58 | |
but the green is safe. | 0:53:58 | 0:54:00 | |
EXPLOSIONS CONTINUE | 0:54:00 | 0:54:02 | |
Think you can make it, Bat 21? | 0:54:02 | 0:54:05 | |
Yeah, I should be able to play through. | 0:54:07 | 0:54:09 | |
Looking forward to buying you a drink. | 0:54:09 | 0:54:12 | |
I'll start the tab. | 0:54:12 | 0:54:15 | |

Uh, Bat 21, this is Birddog. Come in. | 0:56:15 | 0:56:18 | |
Birddog, Bat 21. Go ahead. | 0:56:22 | 0:56:25 | |
Are you still on course? | 0:56:25 | 0:56:27 | |
Birddog, yeah, I'm an easy chip shot | 0:56:29 | 0:56:32 | |
from the green, | 0:56:32 | 0:56:34 | |
except that there's a village right here in front of me. | 0:56:34 | 0:56:37 | |
Reconned yesterday. Area's safe. | 0:56:37 | 0:56:39 | |
We'll take another look. | 0:56:39 | 0:56:41 | |
OK, Birddog. | 0:56:41 | 0:56:44 | |
Shine up your medal, Clarky, | 0:56:55 | 0:56:57 | |
I'm bringing back your boy. | 0:56:57 | 0:56:59 | |
I'll personally alert Bat 21. | 0:56:59 | 0:57:03 | |
Bat 21, this is Birddog again. Come in. | 0:57:03 | 0:57:07 | |
Yeah, Birddog, I'm still here. | 0:57:07 | 0:57:09 | |
Not for long. I'm sending in my best man. | 0:57:09 | 0:57:11 | |
Get your flares ready, and don't pop the smoke | 0:57:11 | 0:57:13 | |

Hold what you got, Big Sky. | 0:58:04 | 0:58:06 | |
I'm going to send Birddog in to take a look. | 0:58:06 | 0:58:09 | |
Roger. | 0:58:09 | 0:58:11 | |
Talk to me, Birddog. | 0:58:24 | 0:58:27 | |
Looks quiet. | 0:58:27 | 0:58:29 | |
I'm going in for a closer look. | 0:58:29 | 0:58:33 | |
Here we go. Be right back. | 0:58:33 | 0:58:36 | |
It don't look like anybody's home. | 0:58:55 | 0:58:58 | |

Don't leave us, Ross! | 1:05:16 | 1:05:18 | |
Don't worry. I'll be back. | 1:05:18 | 1:05:20 | |
All right! | 1:05:20 | 1:05:23 | |
SHOUTING CONTINUES | 1:05:23 | 1:05:25 | |
Ross! Ross! | 1:05:28 | 1:05:30 | |
GUNFIRE | 1:05:30 | 1:05:32 | |
Goddamn you! | 1:05:32 | 1:05:35 | |
Birddog, they've got two of our men. | 1:06:24 | 1:06:27 | |
I think the rest of the crew is dead. | 1:06:27 | 1:06:30 | |
Uh, copy, Bat 21. Stand by. | 1:06:30 | 1:06:32 | |
Cobra Leader, Charlie has two of our airmen. | 1:06:32 | 1:06:34 | |
Can you identify? | 1:06:34 | 1:06:35 | |
Negative, Birddog. Can't make out from here. | 1:06:35 | 1:06:39 | |
We're holding our fire. | 1:06:39 | 1:06:41 | |
They shot my damn hydraulics out. | 1:06:41 | 1:06:45 | |
I'm not going to be able to put this thing down here. | 1:06:45 | 1:06:48 | |
I'm going down for a closer look. | 1:06:48 | 1:06:50 | |
Not advisable, Birddog. | 1:06:50 | 1:06:52 | |
It will be a quick pass. | 1:06:52 | 1:06:54 | |
GUNFIRE | 1:06:59 | 1:07:02 | |
Confirmed, two airmen. | 1:07:05 | 1:07:06 | |
One is pilot. | 1:07:06 | 1:07:09 | |
THEY SPEAK IN VIETNAMESE | 1:07:19 | 1:07:21 | |
You know what, Charlie? I don't follow your fucking drift. | 1:07:23 | 1:07:25 | |
I took Spanish in school. No comprendo. | 1:07:25 | 1:07:28 | |
HE SHOUTS IN VIETNAMESE | 1:07:28 | 1:07:30 | |
Get your fucking slimy fucking hands off me! | 1:07:30 | 1:07:34 | |
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about! | 1:07:36 | 1:07:40 | |
I don't understand you. | 1:07:40 | 1:07:43 | |
Birddog, they're trying to get him to tell where I am. | 1:07:43 | 1:07:47 | |
Copy, Bat 21. Just stay low. | 1:07:47 | 1:07:49 | |
GUNSHOT | 1:08:01 | 1:08:03 | |
Bastard! Motherfucker! | 1:08:03 | 1:08:05 | |
They just killed one of our men. | 1:08:19 | 1:08:21 | |
Was it the pilot, Bat 21? | 1:08:21 | 1:08:24 | |
I don't think so. It's me they want. | 1:08:24 | 1:08:26 | |
I'm going to give myself up. | 1:08:26 | 1:08:28 | |
Keep your ass down, Bat 21! Charlie doesn't bargain. | 1:08:28 | 1:08:31 | |
Nothing you can do about it. | 1:08:31 | 1:08:33 | |
Now, retreat double-time back into the trees. | 1:08:33 | 1:08:36 | |
Come on, fella. Come closer. | 1:09:00 | 1:09:01 | |
Come on. Come on, you motherfucker. | 1:09:01 | 1:09:03 | |
Come on. | 1:09:03 | 1:09:05 | |
Oh! | 1:09:05 | 1:09:07 | |
HE IMITATES AN EXPLOSION | 1:09:07 | 1:09:09 | |
Come on. | 1:09:10 | 1:09:11 | |
They're walking him out into the minefield. | 1:09:11 | 1:09:14 | |
Ah, Jesus! | 1:09:14 | 1:09:16 | |
Come on! | 1:09:19 | 1:09:21 | |
Hey, come on! | 1:09:59 | 1:10:02 | |
Agh! | 1:10:02 | 1:10:03 | |
ROSS SCREAMS | 1:10:05 | 1:10:07 | |
Aah! Aah! | 1:10:07 | 1:10:10 | |
Goddamn it! | 1:10:12 | 1:10:14 | |
Aah! | 1:10:23 | 1:10:26 | |
Motherfucker! | 1:10:40 | 1:10:41 | |
You lowlife... | 1:10:43 | 1:10:47 | |
I've got enough dead heroes for one day, Clark! | 1:11:02 | 1:11:06 | |
Get your ass out of there! | 1:11:06 | 1:11:09 | |
Oh, fuck. | 1:11:09 | 1:11:11 | |
You'll get Bat 21 back on the course! | 1:11:17 | 1:11:19 | |
Then rendezvous with me at Hilo-1-8-5. | 1:11:19 | 1:11:24 | |
I'm going to waste this whole goddamned area! | 1:11:24 | 1:11:27 | |
Four-square leader, hustle your ass over here. | 1:11:37 | 1:11:42 | |
One click north of Hilo-1-niner-6. | 1:11:42 | 1:11:45 | |
Gun emplacement in village. | 1:11:45 | 1:11:48 | |
Jolly Green down. Crew is dead. | 1:11:48 | 1:11:52 | |
Look for the smoke. | 1:11:52 | 1:11:55 | |
People are still in the village. | 1:11:59 | 1:12:01 | |
Charlie is using them for cover. | 1:12:01 | 1:12:03 | |
Stay off frequency, Bat 21. | 1:12:03 | 1:12:05 | |
Await instructions from Birddog. | 1:12:05 | 1:12:08 | |
Birddog. Birddog, people are in the village. | 1:12:14 | 1:12:18 | |
Repeat, civilians, women and children, in the village. | 1:12:18 | 1:12:22 | |
That's a confirmation. Will advise. | 1:12:22 | 1:12:24 | |
Cobra Leader, this is Birddog. | 1:12:26 | 1:12:29 | |
Village is still not clear. | 1:12:29 | 1:12:30 | |
Civilians still in area. | 1:12:30 | 1:12:32 | |
Stay off frequency. | 1:12:32 | 1:12:34 | |
Delay the strike. Repeat, delay strike. | 1:12:34 | 1:12:37 | |
Bat 21, get back on course. | 1:12:37 | 1:12:40 | |
Will connect with you at swanee. | 1:12:40 | 1:12:42 | |
Fuck the goddamn swanee. Delay the strike! | 1:12:42 | 1:12:44 | |
That was my friend laying in the mud | 1:12:44 | 1:12:46 | |
with his fucking head blown off! | 1:12:46 | 1:12:48 | |
Now, get back on course! | 1:12:48 | 1:12:49 | |
Now, do as I say! Back on course! | 1:12:49 | 1:12:52 | |
People keep dying all around me. | 1:13:52 | 1:13:55 | |
I'm through killing. | 1:14:00 | 1:14:02 | |
I'm through, goddamn it. | 1:14:03 | 1:14:06 | |
HE SIGHS | 1:14:51 | 1:14:53 | |
You called for me, sir? | 1:14:56 | 1:14:58 | |
Ahem... | 1:15:01 | 1:15:03 | |
Lost six people today, Clark. | 1:15:03 | 1:15:05 | |
Kids, all of them, just kids. | 1:15:05 | 1:15:08 | |
And I couldn't guarantee | 1:15:10 | 1:15:12 | |
we'd get him out of there | 1:15:12 | 1:15:13 | |
if we had another week. Damn it, it's too hot. | 1:15:13 | 1:15:15 | |
HE SIGHS | 1:15:15 | 1:15:18 | |
So, the strike is a go... | 1:15:18 | 1:15:21 | |
07:00 hours tomorrow. | 1:15:21 | 1:15:24 | |
They're going to level the whole area. | 1:15:24 | 1:15:27 | |
All we can do is hope and pray to God | 1:15:27 | 1:15:29 | |
Hambleton makes it to the river. | 1:15:29 | 1:15:32 | |
I, uh... | 1:15:32 | 1:15:34 | |
Did I ever call the Navy, | 1:15:34 | 1:15:37 | |
and, uh, they're going to send | 1:15:37 | 1:15:39 | |
a patrol boat up there. | 1:15:39 | 1:15:41 | |
Where are you headed? | 1:15:43 | 1:15:45 | |
I'm going to help him make it to the river, sir. | 1:15:46 | 1:15:49 | |
Planes are grounded, Clark. | 1:15:51 | 1:15:53 | |
We are not to go back in there | 1:15:53 | 1:15:55 | |
until the strike is over. | 1:15:55 | 1:15:57 | |
Our hands are tied. | 1:15:59 | 1:16:01 | |
Yes, sir. | 1:16:01 | 1:16:03 | |
HE SIGHS | 1:16:16 | 1:16:17 | |
Birddog, Bat 21. Over. | 1:17:02 | 1:17:05 | |
Birddog, Bat 21. How do you read? Over. | 1:17:06 | 1:17:10 | |
'Birddog, this is Bat 21. Come in. | 1:17:10 | 1:17:13 | |
'I'm on the sixth hole, Birddog. Do you copy? | 1:17:13 | 1:17:16 | |
'Birddog, this is Bat 21. | 1:17:16 | 1:17:19 | |
'Come in, Birddog.' | 1:17:20 | 1:17:22 | |
Thank you. | 1:18:25 | 1:18:27 | |
For me? | 1:18:42 | 1:18:44 | |
BOY SPEAKS IN VIETNAMESE | 1:18:47 | 1:18:49 | |
Definitely not a good idea, sir. It's a bad idea. | 1:21:02 | 1:21:06 | |
I trained in one of these things 15 years ago. | 1:21:06 | 1:21:08 | |
So, just refresh my memory. | 1:21:08 | 1:21:10 | |
You got three minutes. | 1:21:10 | 1:21:11 | |
Let's go, Rumbaugh. | 1:21:14 | 1:21:16 | |
All right. | 1:21:16 | 1:21:18 | |
OK. | 1:21:18 | 1:21:19 | |
This is your rotor speed. Keep it in the green. | 1:21:19 | 1:21:21 | |
This is your engine speed. | 1:21:21 | 1:21:23 | |
Keep it also in the green. | 1:21:23 | 1:21:24 | |
Red-line and you crash and burn. | 1:21:24 | 1:21:26 | |
All right, pedals. Pedals work the same as your ship. | 1:21:26 | 1:21:28 | |
The stick does not. It's cyclic. | 1:21:28 | 1:21:30 | |
It controls the angles of your blades, all right? | 1:21:30 | 1:21:32 | |
I can't believe you're taking the old man's ship. | 1:21:32 | 1:21:35 | |
All right, power. Power's controlled by your collective. | 1:21:35 | 1:21:38 | |
One thing you may have forgotten is, | 1:21:38 | 1:21:39 | |
when you increase power, you increase left pedal | 1:21:39 | 1:21:42 | |
to compensate for increased torque. Got it? | 1:21:42 | 1:21:45 | |
Yeah, um...yeah, it's coming back to me. | 1:21:45 | 1:21:49 | |
And what about autorotation? | 1:21:49 | 1:21:52 | |
Why? You planning on not coming back, sir? | 1:21:52 | 1:21:53 | |
Tell me anyway. | 1:21:53 | 1:21:56 | |
All right. Your engine quits. | 1:21:56 | 1:22:00 | |
You're falling out of the sky. | 1:22:00 | 1:22:01 | |
Now, all you've got left is the energy stored in your blades, OK? | 1:22:01 | 1:22:05 | |
Push the left... | 1:22:05 | 1:22:06 | |
No, push the right, the right pedal to the floor, | 1:22:06 | 1:22:10 | |
collective down, | 1:22:10 | 1:22:11 | |
keep your rotor speed in the green. | 1:22:11 | 1:22:13 | |
Keep it at about 80 knots and about 100 feet off the deck. | 1:22:13 | 1:22:17 | |
Begin to flare and then cushion it on down with the collective. | 1:22:17 | 1:22:20 | |
Now, you may start to spin, | 1:22:20 | 1:22:23 | |
but that's cool. Don't panic. | 1:22:23 | 1:22:25 | |
Key point being, he who hesitates... | 1:22:25 | 1:22:27 | |
You don't want to hesitate, all right? | 1:22:27 | 1:22:29 | |
All right. | 1:22:29 | 1:22:30 | |
Here's your checklist, your maps, all your golf shit. | 1:22:30 | 1:22:33 | |
All right. | 1:22:33 | 1:22:35 | |
Now, you got everything, right? | 1:22:35 | 1:22:36 | |
You understand all this? | 1:22:36 | 1:22:38 | |
Yeah. | 1:22:38 | 1:22:39 | |
All right. | 1:22:39 | 1:22:40 | |
Thanks for the lesson. | 1:22:40 | 1:22:41 | |
Just come back, all right? | 1:22:41 | 1:22:42 | |
Pedals! Pedals! | 1:22:58 | 1:23:01 | |
Collective! | 1:23:03 | 1:23:05 | |
Shit! | 1:23:05 | 1:23:07 | |
Up! Up! Up! | 1:23:07 | 1:23:09 | |
OK, all right. Torque, torque, torque. | 1:23:11 | 1:23:15 | |
Get it up! | 1:23:18 | 1:23:20 | |
You got it! You got it! Up! | 1:23:20 | 1:23:23 | |
Who's that crazy son of a bitch?! Is that Clark?! | 1:23:35 | 1:23:38 | |
I believe it is, sir. | 1:23:38 | 1:23:41 | |
All right, Captain! | 1:23:41 | 1:23:44 | |
We're looking at a court-martial now! | 1:23:44 | 1:23:46 | |
Rotor speed up. | 1:23:46 | 1:23:48 | |
Throttle friction. | 1:23:48 | 1:23:50 | |
Jesus Christ! | 1:23:53 | 1:23:56 | |
When he gets back here, Sergeant, | 1:23:56 | 1:23:58 | |
I'm throwing his ass in the stockade! | 1:23:58 | 1:24:00 | |
We don't have a stockade, sir. | 1:24:00 | 1:24:02 | |
I'll build one! | 1:24:02 | 1:24:04 | |
Son of a bitch! | 1:24:04 | 1:24:06 | |
Good luck, Captain. | 1:24:15 | 1:24:16 | |
All right, all right, all right, here I come. | 1:24:31 | 1:24:35 | |
Chopper Pilot, this is Bat 21. | 1:25:14 | 1:25:16 | |
This is Chopper Pilot, | 1:25:16 | 1:25:18 | |
above your signal on the ninth hole. | 1:25:18 | 1:25:20 | |
Is that you, Birddog? | 1:25:20 | 1:25:21 | |
Yeah, it's me. | 1:25:21 | 1:25:23 | |
Now, let's get you out of here. | 1:25:23 | 1:25:25 | |
50 metres east of you, there's a small field. | 1:25:25 | 1:25:27 | |
If I can get into it, I can make it happen. | 1:25:27 | 1:25:30 | |
Copy that, Bat 21? | 1:25:30 | 1:25:32 | |
I'm on my way, Birddog. | 1:25:32 | 1:25:34 | |
THEY SPEAK IN VIETNAMESE | 1:26:21 | 1:26:25 | |
Down! | 1:26:52 | 1:26:53 | |
-Let's go! -OK! | 1:27:10 | 1:27:11 | |
Hey! | 1:27:22 | 1:27:23 | |
Hang on! | 1:27:23 | 1:27:25 | |
Hurry up. | 1:27:38 | 1:27:39 | |
All right! | 1:27:47 | 1:27:49 | |
I'm glad to see you, Birddog. | 1:27:54 | 1:27:56 | |
Have a seat, Bat 21. | 1:27:59 | 1:28:02 | |
You'd better check the charts. | 1:28:07 | 1:28:10 | |
I had a hell of a time navigating here. | 1:28:10 | 1:28:13 | |
GUNFIRE | 1:28:15 | 1:28:18 | |
Jesus! | 1:28:18 | 1:28:19 | |
Shit! | 1:28:23 | 1:28:25 | |
You're losing oil pressure. | 1:28:30 | 1:28:33 | |
Jesus. | 1:28:33 | 1:28:35 | |
There's the river. | 1:28:39 | 1:28:41 | |
We got to make it from here. | 1:28:41 | 1:28:42 | |
I'm going to have to put this baby down, OK? | 1:28:42 | 1:28:45 | |
There's a clearing at 9 o'clock. | 1:28:48 | 1:28:50 | |
Cut into the woods! | 1:29:25 | 1:29:27 | |
GUNFIRE | 1:29:29 | 1:29:31 | |
Let's go! | 1:29:38 | 1:29:40 | |
It's the air strike. | 1:29:58 | 1:30:01 | |
It's right on time. | 1:30:01 | 1:30:04 | |
Jesus! | 1:30:04 | 1:30:05 | |
SHOUTING IN VIETNAMESE | 1:30:06 | 1:30:08 | |
Go! Move! | 1:30:14 | 1:30:17 | |
Oh, shit! Goddamn! | 1:31:26 | 1:31:28 | |
COUGHING | 1:33:16 | 1:33:17 | |
You know, I've been in the service... | 1:34:11 | 1:34:15 | |
most of my adult life. | 1:34:15 | 1:34:18 | |
It's the first time I ever saw any war. | 1:34:20 | 1:34:23 | |
Guess I was a little closer to the action. | 1:34:24 | 1:34:28 | |
Aah... | 1:34:28 | 1:34:30 | |
I've wanted to be a fighter pilot since I was a kid. | 1:34:30 | 1:34:34 | |
But they wouldn't let me out of the O-2. | 1:34:34 | 1:34:37 | |
Lucky for me. | 1:34:39 | 1:34:40 | |
You could have quit anytime. | 1:34:46 | 1:34:49 | |
Why'd you keep coming back? | 1:34:50 | 1:34:52 | |
Guess it's the stubborn side of me. | 1:34:54 | 1:34:56 | |
I started out just doing my job, | 1:34:56 | 1:34:59 | |
no different from you. | 1:34:59 | 1:35:01 | |
I hate being told I can't do something. | 1:35:03 | 1:35:05 | |
I guess that's why I'm still a captain. | 1:35:05 | 1:35:09 | |
Besides... | 1:35:11 | 1:35:13 | |
I started feeling what you were going through. | 1:35:13 | 1:35:16 | |
I heard it in your voice. | 1:35:18 | 1:35:20 | |
DISTANT RUMBLING | 1:35:27 | 1:35:29 | |
We're home free, Colonel. | 1:35:42 | 1:35:45 | |
Yeah. | 1:35:47 | 1:35:49 | |
HE SIGHS | 1:35:49 | 1:35:50 | |
Cut the Colonel crap, OK, Birddog? | 1:35:52 | 1:35:54 | |
It's Iceal Hambleton. | 1:35:54 | 1:35:57 | |
Iceal? | 1:35:57 | 1:35:59 | |
Ha-ha-ha! | 1:35:59 | 1:36:00 | |
Ha-ha-ha! | 1:36:00 | 1:36:02 | |
It's Hamb. | 1:36:02 | 1:36:04 | |
Yeah. Hey... Clark Bartholomew. | 1:36:04 | 1:36:07 | |
Bartholomew? | 1:36:07 | 1:36:09 | |
Clarky. | 1:36:09 | 1:36:10 | |
OK. | 1:36:10 | 1:36:12 | |
-MAN ON RADIO: -This is USPB-Niner-6. | 1:36:28 | 1:36:32 | |
We have your boys aboard. Injuries have been treated. | 1:36:32 | 1:36:34 | |
Will rendezvous with you at base Victor-4. | 1:36:34 | 1:36:36 | |

The drinks are on me. | 1:36:44 | 1:36:46 | |
Cobra Leader, over and out. | 1:36:46 | 1:36:49 |
