Ei, where we can buy clothes? In shopping of clothes for men it must have some thing.
For the third consecutive day, the men of the Charlie Company… … they are trying to occupy this hill… … in one of the biggest fights that already we saw in the Vietnam.
This hill without name, to the side of a village without name… … dominated for the North Vietnamese army… Oh, that good, man! … it was a strategical objective.
Ei.
, Ru, is speaking of the South of Chu Lai, where they are our faces.
It must have 64 km, bad way there.
The decreases have been high here, but from above rumor is that… … this hill will be busy, does not matter what it costs.

Well, if to need any thing.
I am Frederick Danson with the Brigade of Infantry 196, to the south of Chu Lai.
It leaves to help me it.
It was with great the 1 red.
We were assigned to cover Cart 13… … the suppliment convoy falls in a nest of wasps.
NVA? VC Main Force.
The Lieutenant of the 1, asked for aerial attack stops helping in them, but… … the F100 had played abruptly in Napalm.
It wants to say, on our troops? It is.
When smoke finished, half of my team was being pocketed.
To another half it was running and crying out.
Its suits if had evaporated.
I gained a Medal of Value for my problem.
It delivers for a clerk, of the brigade.
It thought that it would be a good chance to leave in the photo.
Because they had made the attack so close? Surrounded battle, Surrounded call.
The observers had only said that they only erraram for 50 meters, this.
The least was what they had said in them.
What I go to make? To write my member of the house of representatives? I look at,… He does not know what to say, right? He is disturbing.
I find that I do not know what to say.
Except that, face, I feel.
My mother to see comes me… … of the Georgia.
but I will not see it… … because I do not want it sees that me thus.
I can? it has something that wants? I can bring some thing? It is, clearly, beauty.
What such a new face? it does not want its affection.
Then, because he does not leave daqui? He takes.
What it is, I do not want to hear, friend.
I only want to know if the face… Harold, it has name, face, and is.
Harold.
It goes to improve? They had given to the extreme unction 2 times to it.
It is.
, it if salute, that future finds that it has? What is looking at? I am looking at, what I can see.
I fulfilled with my duty.
Servile my intention.
E plays now me in the garbage.
How happened this? They had wounded how you? It happened when I committed the error dullest of my life.
I signed up myself.
Nothing after this it is my guilt.
It asked for you.
Asking as wild.
He does not listen to it, Danny.
Always expensive one rude, not? Always rude.
The war eats the faces rudes.
Is one face rude Danny? A machine killer? Not, I am alone an infantry soldier.
E I make optimum that I can to finish the work.
When I entered, was in wild condition and for a fight.
Too much dull to fear and nothing more.
But, vi that the only glory in the war is to survive.
Vietnam is a total different war.
Well more it is complicated of what I thought when I signed up myself.
This what they had said in them on Korea.
That it was a police action also, not a war.
Somebody forgot to inform the Chinese.
It is you for seeing good, son.
It can leave? I got an emergency pass.
When I can, to leave daqui? It is wild? it almost died.
The old soldiers never die, correct, Danny? E old, the cattle ones? It has something against the cattle tenders? You age one.
Not, I age a boy judging to be a cattle tender.
You know that she has a difference between being boy and to judge… … and to have fifty and as many years, and to judge to be a boy.
Where he is the cursed one, doctor? Father, we have that to speak.
It goes to speak until I die, I eat its mother tried to make? I only want to know because it did not say me what it happened.
E I want to know, if I go to live or to die.
It sees I do not wait that it understands nothing of this.
Together Jack and I have something.
I do not want to lose it.
It said how many times to you left my mother and me? Simply he left in them.
Aai, can be.
But it is very good on the inside.
It was a war hero, If he remembers? It to hear does not go me.
Danny, if does not want to surpass the past, ahead.
Jack is proud of you.
Everything that speaks is on you.
It is, good, it must have practiced to speak with me.
Because such and which are the things, I do not have idea who is this man.
Perhaps we can arrange this.
You to arrange! I made my part, not can say with it nor it with me.
To the devil with this.
I go to come back toward the war.
Where it went? Danny! Danny, how are you? What they make here? I found that they were in Bangkok.
Bangkok can wait.
It is.
, we find that it could need a small .
moral support i.
How he is its father? It is well.
It is certain that everything is well? I find that I am not certain of many things.
I came because he wanted that he knew imported its behavior… … but, they had been the feelings.
My old one if separated while I still suck in the chest.
The last thing that knew is that it lived with a girl in Rich Puerto.
It knows, Danny, Perhaps for the circumstances, you knows.
It is.
, Marcus, everything do not pass of of a bad film, as the Vietnam… … and everything will finish when to light the lights.
I only want to say that it must have talked more, to see what it wants.
After what it made my mother… … it preferred to rub the back one to be sagacious in a telephonic cabin.
It can wait? Off taximeter? Clearly, clearly.
Military? He is.

It is, it is, it needs something as: It lives fast, dies young e is a pretty corpse.
Certain, that such born to kill? What is this? an angel of the hell or something? I am a soldier.
This is in the face.
In money, without credit.
If to want extras, is more expensive.
Extras? The house has windows, wanted.
It sees what I made! Of alone the one looked at! It is yes, was with tiger skill.
If I had placed more sophisticated I would arrest, me.
Where they go, friends? Women, wine and music, Joe.
Women, wine and music.
She hears, as Sinatra always says: “What the night will be able to give to you” It wants to see my tattooing? It knows my grandmother created who me, the most important e that it taught to me: Nothing positive it can leave a negative thought.
It is this there.
It knows that it has that to come back, Danny.
It will have that to be sincere with it.
That difference this makes in last the six or seven disillusionments? It is in the blood.
It has that to respect this.
It knows, a thing is certain.
These people are not worried about no war.
You find that they import themselves if we are fighting and dying in the forest.
They do not have time of if worrying about all the people dying.
Very they are worried about its bronzed and the last steps of dance.
They know, on, in the hospital, has a room with friends of the Vietnam.
I spoke with two faces and I speak to you, sufficiently are hurt.
She sees, of the form that I see, if has a bullet with my name… … then I prefer that my family covers my military insurance… … before she comes back toward house without any vital part.

I find that already I finished.
You did not finish, because I did not answer its question.
He leaves to go me.
When I pull the trigger I feel an urgency.
The power to kill an Asian and the pain that I had when making it.
If I shoot with a M-16, in somebody, I only shoot.

But I have that to make, senão the bush, kills you to them.
Wide me! In the war, senhorita, us we do not ask for to be enclosed.

It is the war, Danny.
Drug, we have that to go.
I cannot, is alone that I cannot.
This does not want to say nothing, Danny.

I find, that after the Sergeant, you he is optimum of the squad.
Perhaps it has reason, could be better that the Sergeant.
Marcus, better that the Sergeant? It speaks serious? Better that the Sergeant? Without offending, Percell, but you are not better that the Sergeant.
He did not say that the Sergeant better, “perhaps” to be better that the Sergeant.
He is wild, what he walked smoking? Ei, ei, are not nervous.
Certain it says, me as he could be better that the Sergeant.
All good, all good.
