1944, December. 00:01:20.680 - 00:01:22.750
I was miles from the front, and a stranger to war. 00:01:22.840 - 00:01:25.513
Troops, fuel dumps, enemy units. 00:01:25.600 - 00:01:28.034

- I can take him, sir. - Funny. I had a feeling you'd say that. 00:01:40.880 - 00:01:44.077
- There isn't much movement today, sir. - So I see. Captain. 00:01:44.160 - 00:01:47.596
Oh, don't forget, sir. You wanted to send some of that champagne along as well. 00:01:47.680 - 00:01:51.639
Yes. Thank you for reminding me, Tom. 00:01:52.400 - 00:01:55.472
