Platoon (1986)
Platoon is a 1986 American war film written and directed by Oliver Stone, starring Tom Berenger, Willem Dafoe, Charlie Sheen, Keith David, Kevin Dillon, John C. McGinley, Forest Whitaker, and Johnny Depp. It is the first film of a trilogy of Vietnam War films directed by Stone, followed by Born on the Fourth of July (1989) and Heaven & Earth (1993). The film, based on Stone's experience from the war, follows a U.S. Army volunteer (Sheen) serving in Vietnam while his Platoon Sergeant and his Squad Leader (Berenger and Dafoe) argue over the morality in the platoon and of the war itself.

00:25:07 You fuck up in a firefight and I goddamn guarantee you a trip out of the bush.
00:25:13 In a party bag.

00:25:22 And that goes for you, ship of brains.
00:25:26 You don't sleep on no fucking ambush.
00:25:31 And the next sumbitch I catch a cop and Z's in the bush,
00:25:35 I'm personally gonna take an interest in seeing them suffer.
00:25:40 How shit you not?
00:25:43 Doc, tag him and bag him.
00:25:48 >> I didn't fall asleep, Sergeant.

00:27:08 Oh, you're back?
00:27:09 >> Yeah, it looks like it.
00:27:11 >> Hey, King, where'd you get those beers, boy?

00:35:27 >> Just no fucking way.
00:35:30 >> Yeah, I'm going now.

00:36:39 There's been a lot of movement near the Cambodian border.
00:36:42 Regiments of NVA moving across.
00:36:44 A lot of little firefights, ambushes.
00:36:47 We drop a lot of bombs, then we walk through the jungle
00:36:49 like ghosts in a landscape.
00:36:52 [crickets chirping]

00:42:49 >> Move it, Junior, let's go.
00:42:53 >> Tell 6 we need engineers.
00:42:55 This house is crawling with trash.
00:42:56 >> They're on their way.
00:42:57 Listen, the NVA out of here have been spotted in the village
00:42:59 half a click down the river.
00:43:01 >> We got to get there ASAP.
00:43:03 Also, leave four of your men here and the medic, okay?
00:43:06 >> All right.
00:43:07 >> Move it out.
00:43:09 >> Let's go.
00:43:32 >> Hold the flanks in.
00:43:33 Let's move.
00:43:37 >> Manny!
00:43:38 Manny!
00:43:39 >> Manny!
00:43:40 >> Manny!
00:43:41 >> Manny!
00:43:42 >> Manny!
00:43:43 >> Manny!
00:43:44 >> Manny!
00:43:45 >> Manny, where are you at?
00:43:48 [siren]
00:44:15 >> We had to get to the village before dark,
00:44:18 so we left the liaths with some men to keep looking
00:44:20 and wait for the engineers.
00:44:22 But it was King who found him about a thousand yards
00:44:24 downriver, not far from the village.
00:44:32 The end of the mystery.
00:45:01 >> Motherfuckers.
00:45:11 >> The village, which had stood for maybe a thousand years,
00:45:14 didn't know we were coming that day.
00:45:16 If they had, they would have run.
00:45:19 Barnes was at the eye of our rage,
00:45:21 and through him, our Captain Ahab,
00:45:24 we would set things right again.
00:45:26 That day, the village was in a state of panic.
00:45:30 That day, we loved them.
00:45:35 >> There you go, Sarge.
00:45:45 >> Yeah, you got it, Sarge.
00:45:48 >> Come, it's heaven hot.
00:45:49 Let's go.
00:45:54 >> Get that stupid look off your face.
00:46:00 >> Hey, piggy, piggy.
00:46:01 Hey, pig.
00:46:02 [gunshot]
00:46:08 >> You're gonna leave a hooch, it's perilous.
00:46:10 >> No, no, no.
00:46:11 >> Right on the right.
00:46:12 Watch your back.
00:46:13 Let's go.
00:46:14 Mushroom up.
00:46:15 >> Hey, hey, hey.
00:46:16 >> What do you got here, huh?
00:46:18 >> Let's go.
00:46:19 Mushroom up.
00:46:20 >> Get over there.
00:46:21 >> Come on, Sarge.
00:46:23 >> Come on, let's go.
00:46:24 >> Let's go, Junior.
00:46:26 Bring them in.
00:46:27 >> Get those people down here.
00:46:29 >> Get him on the floor.
00:46:31 >> Let's go, please.
00:46:33 >> Get over there, you fuckheads.
00:46:35 Move.
00:46:36 [gunshot]
00:46:38 Let them move.
00:46:42 [speaking foreign language]
00:46:52 >> Come on.
00:46:53 >> Put them in the pig pens.
00:46:57 >> Shut up, you pigs.
00:47:00 Shut up.
00:47:01 >> Give me your money, Pete.
00:47:04 >> Shut up.
00:47:07 >> Fire in the hole.
00:47:11 [gunshot]
00:47:14 [screaming]
00:47:24 >> Shut up.
00:47:26 Get them out of here.
00:47:28 >> Oh, fuck, we got one.
00:47:33 >> LaDai, LaDai, get the fuck out of the hole.
00:47:36 Move.
00:47:37 Get the fuck out of there.
00:47:38 Let's go.
00:47:39 Come on, motherfucker.
00:47:40 >> Be cool, be cool.
00:47:41 They're scared, man.
00:47:42 They're scared.
00:47:43 >> What about me, man?
00:47:44 What about me?
00:47:45 I'm sick of this fucking shit.
00:47:46 Come on, motherfucker, move.
00:47:49 Watch this fucker.
00:47:50 >> Fuckers don't want us here, man.
00:47:52 Who the fuck do you think they're fighting for, huh?
00:47:54 >> We got one more.
00:47:55 Hey, hey, LaDai, LaDai.
00:47:57 [speaking foreign language]
00:48:02 >> Well, well, what have we here?
00:48:06 >> One, two, three, four, mag 58, check the vacuum machine.
00:48:12 Two, four.
00:48:15 >> All right, they got enough rice here to feed a whole fucking machine.
00:48:22 Sergeant Warren, keep bringing that honcho over here.
00:48:25 Get out of there.
00:48:27 Junior, burn it.
00:48:29 >> What the fuck's the matter with you?
00:48:31 I wasn't going to hurt you.
00:48:32 Looked like I was going to fucking hurt you.
00:48:34 Why didn't you listen to me, huh?
00:48:36 Why?
00:48:37 Why didn't you fucking listen to me, fucking stupid?
00:48:39 You stupid asshole.
00:48:41 Get the fuck up here.
00:48:43 Come here, motherfucker.
00:48:44 Why are you smiling?
00:48:46 Why the fuck didn't you listen to me?
00:48:48 >> Do it, man, do it.
00:48:50 >> What are you smiling at, huh?
00:48:52 You want something to smile at, huh?
00:48:54 You want something to smile at?
00:48:56 Motherfucker.
00:48:57 Dance, motherfucker.
00:48:59 [gunfire]
00:49:00 >> Do it, man, do it.
00:49:02 >> Dance, motherfucker.
00:49:04 [gunfire]
00:49:09 >> One-legged motherfucker.
00:49:11 [crying]
00:49:18 >> Come on, let's go, man.
00:49:20 [crying]
00:49:25 >> Fucking pussy man.
00:49:27 He's laughing at you.
00:49:29 That's the way the gook laughs.
00:49:32 Yeah, sure you are.
00:49:34 You're real sorry, ain't you?
00:49:36 You're just crying your little hearts out about Sandy and Sal and Manny.
00:49:40 >> What's so funny, huh?
00:49:42 Let's go.
00:49:44 What do you say?
00:49:46 [crying]
00:49:52 [screaming]
00:49:54 [crying]
00:50:04 >> Holy shit, you see that fucking head come apart, man?
00:50:09 I never seen brains like that before, man.
00:50:14 I bet you the old bitch runs the whole fucking show, man.
00:50:18 She probably cut Manny's throat.
00:50:20 She probably cut my balls off if she had the chance.
00:50:24 >> Why don't we leave now?
00:50:25 Nobody saw a fucking thing.
00:50:27 You understand me, Terrell?
00:50:28 Not a fucking thing.
00:50:29 >> Come on, man, let's fucking do her, man.
00:50:31 Let's do this whole fucking village.
00:50:34 >> Scars on this gook, huh, so-so?
00:50:39 >> Get out of here, folks.
00:50:44 [speaking foreign language]
00:50:51 >> Where'd he get these wounds?
00:50:52 [speaking foreign language]
00:50:57 >> Says he was hit in a bombing raid.
00:50:59 >> That's deep for sure.
00:51:03 Ask him why his weapons were here.
00:51:05 [speaking foreign language]
00:51:09 >> Says they had no choice.
00:51:11 Says the NVA killed the old honcho when he said no.
00:51:13 Says all the rice is theirs.
00:51:14 >> Oh, bullshit, Lerner.
00:51:17 Who the hell is the gook we nailed on the riverbank?
00:51:20 [speaking foreign language]
00:51:27 >> He doesn't know.
00:51:28 He says that the NVA ain't been around in a couple of months.
00:51:31 Maybe he was a scout or something.
00:51:32 Sorry.
00:51:33 >> Yeah, sure, a scout.
00:51:34 What about the fucking rice and the weapons?
00:51:36 Who they for?
00:51:38 An LVC!
00:51:40 That cocksucker knows what I'm saying.
00:51:41 He understands.
00:51:42 >> Don't you, Pop?
00:51:43 >> Goddamn right he does.
00:51:44 >> You bick!
00:51:45 >> He's lying through his teeth.
00:51:46 Come on!
00:51:47 >> Waste the fucker, then see you talk.
00:51:49 [shouting]
00:51:52 [speaking foreign language]
00:51:57 >> He swears he doesn't know anything.
00:51:58 He hates the NVA, but they come when they want,
00:52:00 and they just take the place.
00:52:01 >> What's the bitch saying?
00:52:02 >> I don't know.
00:52:04 She's going on about why we killed the pigs.
00:52:06 They're farmers.
00:52:07 They got to make a living, all that kind of shit.
00:52:08 >> Jesus.
00:52:09 [speaking foreign language]
00:52:19 >> Shut up!
00:52:20 [speaking foreign language]
00:52:26 [gunshot]
00:52:27 [speaking foreign language]
00:52:31 [crying]
00:52:46 >> You tell him.
00:52:47 He starts talking, or I'm going to waste more of them.
00:52:50 Tell him, Mother!
00:52:52 [speaking foreign language]
00:53:06 >> Let's go for it.
00:53:07 Let's do the whole fucking village.
00:53:09 Come on, Satch, what the fuck are we waiting for?
00:53:12 [crying]
00:53:16 >> Let's go, all right?
00:53:17 [crying]
00:53:21 >> This is his daughter, right?
00:53:22 Right?
00:53:23 [crying]
00:53:32 >> You lie!
00:53:33 No, you lie!
00:53:34 You VC!
00:53:35 [speaking foreign language]
00:53:44 >> Burn!
00:53:48 Burn!
00:53:54 What the fuck do you think you're doing?
00:54:00 >> Stay out of this, fly ass.
00:54:01 This ain't your show.
00:54:03 >> You ain't a fighting squad, you piece of shit!
00:54:06 [shouting]
00:54:09 >> No, no, no!
00:54:10 [shouting]
00:54:16 >> Get him!
00:54:17 [shouting]
00:54:27 >> Come on, boy, break it up.
00:54:28 [shouting]
00:54:37 >> Break it up!
00:54:38 [shouting]
00:54:41 >> You're a dead liar!
00:54:42 I swear to fucking God you're dead!
00:54:44 You're gonna die, man, I'll be damned!
00:54:47 This shit won't wash, you fucking puke!
00:54:49 >> Break it up!
00:54:50 Break it up!
00:54:51 Shut up!
00:54:52 Break it up!
00:54:53 Listen up!
00:54:55 Captain says to torch this place, you hear that?
00:54:58 Torch this place!
00:55:00 Blow the weapons in place.
00:55:02 Round up all suspected VC and shake it up.
00:55:04 We ain't got much light left.
00:55:06 >> Lieutenant, why the fuck didn't you do something?
00:55:09 >> What are you talking about?
00:55:11 >> You know what the fuck I'm talking about.
00:55:14 >> No, I don't.
00:55:15 I don't know what the fuck you're talking about, Elias.
00:55:22 All right, move it out!
00:55:23 Let's go, you heard the lieutenant.
00:55:25 Move it out.
00:55:26 Taylor, let's go for Christ's sake.
00:55:28 Move it out!
00:55:29 Lease up the weapons and let's go!
00:55:30 Come on, Harold.
00:55:31 Move it.

00:59:00 >> I didn't see anything, sir.
00:59:01 >> I did.
00:59:02 >> That dink was reported to me as NVA by Sergeant Barnes, sir.
00:59:05 >> My report, sir, will include Lieutenant Wolf as being witness to the shooting.
00:59:09 >> All right, Elias.
00:59:11 Staff Sergeant Barnes?
00:59:13 >> Sir?
00:59:14 >> I want a full report from you on this when we get back to the CP.
00:59:17 >> You got it, Dyer-Weave, and I can throw in plenty of eyewitnesses if you want, sir.
00:59:22 >> Not now, goddammit, not now.
00:59:24 We'll get into this when we get back to the base camp, and I can promise you something.
00:59:29 If I find out there was an illegal killing, there will be a court-martial.
00:59:33 Right now I need every man in the field, and you two will cease fire.
00:59:39 Staff Sergeant Barnes, Sergeant Elias, you hear me?
00:59:42 >> Yes, sir.
00:59:43 >> Yes, sir.
00:59:44 >> Now, we're going back into that NVA bunker complex tomorrow, this time from the east.
00:59:48 You people get some rest and be back up here at the CP at 1900 for a briefing.
00:59:53 >> Yes, sir.
00:59:54 >> Yes, sir.
01:00:00 >> Come on, man.
01:00:02 You think these chucks give a fuck about you and me?
01:00:05 Just as well been you, Harold.
01:00:06 You got in Barnes' way.
01:00:09 And that bunny, that motherfucker's crazy.
01:00:13 He scares me, man.
01:00:15 He just scares me.
01:00:16 >> Look, the blood's getting too hung up on all this shit.
01:00:21 He's gooks a lot smarter than you think.
01:00:24 Barnes knows his shit, man.
01:00:26 They was NVA every last one of them.
01:00:29 Now, he's taken us this far, right?
01:00:31 He'll take us the rest of the way.
01:00:33 >> I don't know, Harold.
01:00:34 I mean, a Christian don't go around a village cutting off heads and shit.
01:00:38 Shit is really getting out of hand, man.
01:00:40 It's going way out of control.
01:00:42 Seems to me you don't seem to know the difference, the way you shoot up that shit all the time.
01:00:49 >> I don't know, brothers.
01:00:52 But I'm hurting real bad inside.
01:00:57 >> Don't worry about it, Sergeant.
01:00:58 Elias won't be able to prove a thing.
01:01:00 He's a troublemaker.
01:01:02 >> Elias is a water walker.
01:01:04 Like them politicians in Washington trying to fight this war with one hand tied around their balls.
01:01:10 Ain't no need or time for a courtroom out here.
01:01:15 >> Sarge?
01:01:16 >> Thanks, bud.
01:01:18 >> How'd it go there, bub?
01:01:20 >> Yeah.
01:01:22 Yeah, that way, Sarge.
01:01:24 Fucking Elias, man.
01:01:26 He's a fucking rat, that's what he is.
01:01:28 He's going to get everybody in this platoon in deep shit.
01:01:31 Somebody ought to frag his ass.
01:01:34 >> So what do you think there, bub?
01:01:36 Going to be an investigation or what?
01:01:39 Bub?
01:01:42 >> Neil, man, you worry too much.
01:01:44 Sarge will take care of it.
01:01:52 >> It's a beautiful night.
01:01:54 I love this place at night.
01:01:57 The stars.
01:02:01 There's no right or wrong in them.
01:02:03 They're just there.
01:02:06 >> That's a nice way of putting it.
01:02:13 Barnes has got it in for you, doesn't he?
01:02:15 >> Barnes believes in what he's doing.
01:02:19 >> And you?
01:02:25 >> 65, yeah.
01:02:29 Now?
01:02:33 No.
01:02:37 What happened today is just the beginning.
01:02:41 We're going to lose this war.
01:02:44 >> Come on.
01:02:46 You really think so?
01:02:49 Us?
01:02:51 >> We've been kicking other people's asses for so long, I figure it's time we got ours kicked.
01:03:06 Day by day, I struggle to maintain not only my strength, but my sanity.
01:03:11 It's all a blur.
01:03:13 I have no energy to write.
01:03:16 I don't know what's right and what's wrong anymore.
01:03:19 The morale of the men is low.
01:03:21 A civil war in the platoon.
01:03:23 Half the men with Elias, half with Barnes.
01:03:26 There's a lot of suspicion and hate.
01:03:29 I can't believe we're fighting each other when we should be fighting them.
01:03:34 Counting days and the six inches in front of my face, not much else.
01:03:40 Hope things are well, grandma.
01:03:42 Tell mom and dad I -- well, just tell them.
01:03:47 Chris.
01:04:09 >> Hey, big boy.
01:04:12 I know you thought you had that laundry gig all laid out.
01:04:14 Hell, I got to paint myself white just to get me one of them fucking jobs.
01:04:17 It's all right.
01:04:18 I got my request in for a circumcision.
01:04:20 I'm going to get my big ass out of this.
01:04:22 You going to become a rabbi?
01:04:24 What you going to do with that little flap, boy?
01:04:30 All right!
01:04:31 Move it on!
01:04:36 You're going to get malaria.
01:04:39 Yeah, I hope so.
01:04:41 Let's go!

01:05:34 >> They got RPDs, man.
01:05:35 It's an ambush.
01:05:36 They were just fucking waiting for us here.
01:05:38 >> Who's on point?
01:05:39 >> Lerner and Warren.
01:05:40 >> I know where he goes.
01:05:42 [gunfire]

01:06:45 [explosion]
01:06:47 Adjust fire. Over.
01:06:49 [explosion]
01:06:51 >> Lieutenant, they're going to get us.
01:06:53 >> I spotted a cut over there.
01:06:55 Let me get some men and roll up that plank.
01:06:57 I can work right up on it.
01:06:59 >> Give me the guns.
01:07:00 Look, Elias, I don't know.
01:07:01 We got four down up there.
01:07:02 What do you want me to do?
01:07:03 [gunfire]
01:07:05 >> Where the fuck is Red Platoon?
01:07:07 Tell those assholes to get up here!
01:07:09 >> Guys, what the fuck are you doing back here?
01:07:11 >> Listen, there's holes back here.
01:07:13 [gunfire]
01:07:14 >> Platoon's coming up here.
01:07:15 We're here.
01:07:16 >> Things get men in these holes.
01:07:18 They got us caught in a crossfire.
01:07:19 We'll shoot each other the shit.
01:07:21 >> Sounds pretty far off to me, Elias.
01:07:23 >> I've seen it happen.
01:07:24 >> Yeah, Drangon, 66.
01:07:26 >> They cut us to fucking pieces.
01:07:28 I need three men.
01:07:29 >> Turn your gun and take off.
01:07:31 >> Keep pouring off that cover fire.
01:07:34 I don't want to be stuck out there
01:07:35 with my ass hanging in the breeze.
01:07:38 >> You don't tell me how to run my way.
01:07:41 >> You go crying and rest fucking the brigade
01:07:43 on your own time, but out here you belong to me.
01:07:46 Now move!
01:07:48 >> Barnes.
01:07:49 >> Seth, get that asshole O'Neal up here.
01:07:51 I want to talk to him.
01:07:52 >> I'm trying, I'm trying, this is two.

01:10:19 >> Just hang in there.
01:10:20 >> Gator, he's coming with us.
01:10:23 >> First, don't go.
01:10:24 Don't--
01:10:25 >> You're gonna be okay.
01:10:27 >> Come on!
01:10:28 Doc!
01:10:29 >> Take care of him, man.
01:10:31 [gunfire]
01:10:33 >> Red light, red light.
01:10:34 Number Bravo 2, actual.
01:10:36 Adjustment follows.
01:10:38 >> Red.
01:10:39 [gunfire]
01:10:41 >> You ignorant asshole!
01:10:43 What the fuck warrant did you give him?
01:10:45 You waste a lot of people up there with your fucked-up fire mission.
01:10:49 You know that?
01:10:50 [gunfire]
01:10:52 You know that?
01:10:53 Ah, shit.
01:10:56 Red light, red light.
01:10:58 Red Bravo 2, check your fire.
01:11:01 Check your fire.
01:11:03 [gunfire]
01:11:13 >> They're coming.
01:11:18 >> Stag yourself across this line.
01:11:21 Pursuit anything that moves.
01:11:23 They'll be coming from over there.
01:11:25 >> Roger.
01:11:26 >> Any one of them gets through, you're two fucked.
01:11:30 >> Where the hell are you going?
01:11:32 >> Down by the river, about 100 meters.
01:11:35 In case they try to flank us.
01:11:37 Third platoon's coming up to our rear, so watch for them.
01:11:40 >> Hey, can I go with you?
01:11:42 >> No.
01:11:43 They move faster alone.
01:11:49 [gunfire]
01:11:52 >> Come here.
01:11:54 Let's let Artie do a little bit of the work here.
01:11:57 You tell everybody to pull back to the church.
01:12:00 We link up with third platoon.
01:12:02 You got that?
01:12:03 [gunfire]
01:12:04 >> What about Elias?
01:12:05 We can pull back if we cut off.
01:12:07 >> You're just whole ass too, lieutenant.
01:12:10 [gunfire]
01:12:11 >> I'll get him.
01:12:12 Two out for patrol.
01:12:13 Two out for patrol.

01:13:12 >> Where's Elias?
01:13:13 >> Sarge, there's a bunch of goose came through there.
01:13:15 We got three of them fuckers.
01:13:17 >> Hey, did you hear the Artie shift?
01:13:19 We're pulling back.
01:13:20 Now get your wounded man and get the fuck back to church.
01:13:22 Get going.

01:20:42 [music]
01:20:45 >> He killed him.
01:21:11 I know that he killed him.
01:21:12 I saw his eyes when he came back in.
01:21:14 >> You know the dinks didn't get him.
01:21:16 You got no proof, man.
01:21:18 >> Proof's in the eyes, man.
01:21:19 When you know, you know.
01:21:21 You were there, Ron.
01:21:22 I know what you were thinking.
01:21:23 I say we frag that fucker tonight.
01:21:25 >> I go with that.
01:21:26 Live or die.
01:21:28 >> I say let military justice do the job on him.
01:21:31 >> Come on, fuck the military justice.
01:21:34 Are you joking me?
01:21:35 Whose story you think they're going to believe?
01:21:37 O'Neal's?
01:21:38 Bunnies?
01:21:39 Wolves?
01:21:40 Shit, man, you try that, and Bon's will shove it right back up your ass
01:21:43 with a candle on it.
01:21:44 >> Well, then what do you suggest we do, huh?
01:21:46 >> I suggest you all watch your own asses.
01:21:49 Because Bon's going to be coming down on all of them.
01:21:51 >> You just going to forget about Elias
01:21:53 and all the good times we done had right in here?
01:21:55 >> Shit, you trying to cure the headache by cutting off the head?
01:21:59 Elias didn't ask you to fight his battles for him.
01:22:03 And if there's a heaven, and God, I hope there is,
01:22:07 I know he's sitting up there drunk as a fucking monkey
01:22:10 and smoking shit.
01:22:13 But he done left his pains down here.
01:22:15 >> You're wrong, man.
01:22:16 Any way you cut it, Barnes is a fucking murderer.
01:22:19 >> Right on.
01:22:20 >> Taylor, I remember when you first came in here,
01:22:24 telling me how much you admired the bastard.
01:22:27 >> I was wrong.
01:22:28 >> Wrong? You ain't never been right about nothing.
01:22:32 And dig this, you assholes, and dig it good.
01:22:36 Bon's been shot seven times, and he ain't dead.
01:22:39 Does that mean anything to you, huh?
01:22:42 Bon's ain't meant to die.
01:22:45 The only thing that could kill Bon's is Barnes.
01:22:49 >> Talking about killing?
01:23:04 >> You're one of the experts.
01:23:08 You all know about killing?
01:23:11 >> I'd like to hear about it, potheads.
01:23:14 You smoke this shit so as to escape from reality?
01:23:27 Me, I don't need this shit.
01:23:31 I am reality.
01:23:34 There's the way it ought to be, and there's the way it is.
01:23:44 The blast was full of shit.
01:23:51 The blast was a crusader.
01:23:55 Now, I got no fight.
01:23:58 But any man does what he's told.
01:24:01 And when he don't, the machine breaks down.
01:24:05 And when the machine breaks down, we break down.
01:24:10 And I ain't gonna allow that.
01:24:13 Many of you.
01:24:16 Not one.
01:24:19 Not one.
01:24:21 You all love lies.
01:24:40 You want to kick ass.
01:24:47 Yeah.
01:24:49 Well, here I am, all by my lonesome.
01:24:55 And ain't nobody gonna know.
01:25:00 60 boys against me.
01:25:08 Kill me.
01:25:16 Kill me.
01:25:18 I shit on all you.
01:25:37 You motherfucker!
01:25:44 Get this dick, dick! Come on!
01:25:46 Come on, man. Get him!
01:25:48 Fuck, get him!
01:25:50 Come on, boys! Come on!
01:25:52 Lacey Barnes, don't do it, man.
01:25:57 You go think you're Don LBJ, man.
01:25:59 Ten years, get unlisted, man.
01:26:01 Ten years, you climb the fucking walls, man.
01:26:05 Don't do it.
01:26:09 Don't do it.
01:26:11 Death?
01:26:32 Who you all know about death?
01:26:35 I don't know.
01:26:37 They sent us back into the valley the next day,
01:26:50 about 2,000 meters from Cambodia,
01:26:52 into a battalion perimeter.
01:26:54 It felt like we were returning to the scene of a crime.
01:26:57 [helicopter whirring]
01:27:01 [helicopter whirring]
01:27:29 Alpha Company had been hit hard the day before by a sizable force,
01:27:33 and Charlie Company had been probed that night.
01:27:36 There were other battalions in the valley.
01:27:38 We weren't the only ones,
01:27:40 but we knew we were gonna be the bait to lure them out.
01:27:43 Somewhere out there was the entire 141st NVA regiment.
01:27:47 [helicopter whirring]
01:27:56 [helicopter whirring]
01:27:59 I caught those motherfuckers trying to pull some shit
01:28:08 on Charlie Company last night.
01:28:10 They found maps on them, man.
01:28:12 Got a friend of the battalion.
01:28:14 Says they had every fucking foxhole they had fixed on it--
01:28:18 distances, tree lines, by claymores, everything.
01:28:22 This is bad, man.
01:28:24 I got bad vibes here.
01:28:26 I also heard we're in fucking Cambodia right now.
01:28:29 Cambodia? Man, you're kidding me.
01:28:32 Order to see me, sir.
01:28:34 Yeah, remove your--
01:28:37 Looks like you got Elias' squad now.
01:28:39 Squad, sir?
01:28:41 I know why you're still referring to this platoon in terms of squads.
01:28:44 All right, look, I want you to take those two holes,
01:28:47 right there and there.
01:28:49 You're tying it off with Barnes up here, King down there.
01:28:52 Begging your pardon, sir.
01:28:54 My two holes are far enough apart you can run a regiment through them
01:28:57 and never see it. I have five live bodies left, sir.
01:29:00 Look, I don't want to hear your problems, Ramucci.
01:29:02 You get Newman any day.
01:29:04 Meantime, you make do like everybody else, okay?
01:29:06 You didn't ask for this job. I don't want to hear it.
01:29:09 Oh, you don't want to hear it. Yeah, that's right.
01:29:11 I don't want to hear it, 'cause to tell you the truth,
01:29:13 I don't give a shit, okay?
01:29:15 I just don't give a flying fuck anymore.
01:29:18 Right.
01:29:21 [radio chatter]
01:29:23 I'm glad I ain't going with him.
01:29:27 Somewhere out there is the beast, and he hungry tonight.
01:29:32 What a fucking bummer.
01:29:35 Ten days in the wake-up, and I'm still dealing with this shit.
01:29:39 What's the matter with you, man?
01:29:44 How come you ain't writing nobody?
01:29:47 What about your folks?
01:29:49 That grandma you was telling me about?
01:29:52 Girl?
01:29:56 You got a mother and father, don't you?
01:30:00 There must be somebody.
01:30:02 Nah, there's nobody.
01:30:04 You been smoking too much of this shit, Jew.
01:30:09 You got to control that. Bring a man down.
01:30:13 I mean, when you first come out here to the bush,
01:30:16 you as green as ever.
01:30:19 You ever get caught in a mistake that you just can't get out of?
01:30:22 Can't.
01:30:24 Way out of anything, man.
01:30:26 Just keep your pecker hard and your powder dry,
01:30:29 and the worm will turn.
01:30:31 How many days you short?
01:30:36 Nah, it's not just me.
01:30:39 That's the way the whole thing works.
01:30:41 People like Elias get wasted.
01:30:43 People like Barnes just go on making up the rules any way they want.
01:30:47 So what do we do?
01:30:49 Sit in the middle and suck on it.
01:30:51 We just don't add up to dry shit, King.
01:30:54 Whoever said we did, man?
01:30:56 All you got to do is make it out of here.
01:30:59 And it's all gravy.
01:31:01 Every day, the rest of your life, gravy.
01:31:04 Oh, shit, super lifer.
01:31:10 Hey, King, collect up your shit.
01:31:13 Your order's just come through.
01:31:15 Don't fuck with me.
01:31:17 What, do you need a written invitation, for Christ's sake?
01:31:20 Cock sucker, oh, wow.
01:31:22 The lifers that made a mistake.
01:31:24 They cut me some slack, Taylor.
01:31:26 You get your figure to Rodriguez.
01:31:28 You got ten minutes to make the last fucking chopper out of here, man.
01:31:31 'Cause if you're not on it, I'm gonna be.
01:31:34 Taylor Francis is coming up.
01:31:36 That's great, King. I'm happy for you, man.
01:31:39 You're taking on home for me, okay?
01:31:41 I got my address. You know where you can get a hold of me any time, right?
01:31:45 I got a DD, man. I don't want to miss that chopper.
01:31:48 You okay? Yeah, man.
01:31:54 Remember now, take it easy.
01:31:57 Don't think too much. Don't you be no fool.
01:32:00 Remember, there ain't no such thing as a coward out here.
01:32:03 It don't mean nothing.
01:32:05 My man.
01:32:08 I'll walk you out, man.
01:32:10 Take it easy, King.
01:32:16 I'll take it any way I can get it, brother.
01:32:18 Hey, hey, later.
01:32:20 I'm pretty fucked up.
01:32:22 No, man, don't touch that.
01:32:24 I got to get a little chopper, man.
01:32:26 So what's the problem?
01:32:28 Lizzy can't walk.
01:32:30 Shit.
01:32:32 I'm gonna get you a little chopper, man.
01:32:34 Shit.
01:32:36 Martin, get your boots on.
01:32:40 And the next time I catch you spraying Skeeter repellent on your fucking feet...
01:32:48 I'm gonna court-martial your nigger ass.
01:32:51 Well, then court-martial me, motherfucker!
01:32:54 Bust my ass! Send me a fucking log bin!
01:32:57 You do your fucking work!
01:32:59 You white folks have got your last click out of junior!
01:33:03 O'Neal, get me that centipede.
01:33:06 Sarge?
01:33:08 Yeah, that long, hairy, red and black bastard I found in the ammo crate.
01:33:13 I'm gonna put it in this boy's crotch, see if he can walk.
01:33:17 I remember now.
01:33:19 Hey! Now hold up, man!
01:33:21 You just hold up and wait, all right?
01:33:23 Fuck it, I'll walk!
01:33:25 I'll fucking walk, man!
01:33:27 Fucking pussy, man. Hey, Sarge, I got to have him in my haul?
01:33:30 Yeah.
01:33:31 Uh, Bob? I'd like to speak to you a minute.
01:33:34 He's taking the boy.
01:33:41 I'd like to speak to you.
01:33:43 Bob?
01:33:44 Yeah, what is it?
01:33:45 Bob, I got a license, R&R. It's coming up in three days.
01:33:49 I was thinking about going to Hawaii, maybe see Patsy.
01:33:52 Hey, Bob, come on, I never asked you for a fucking thing over here.
01:33:55 I was thinking maybe...
01:33:56 Bob, to be honest with you, I was hoping you'd put me on that chopper with King out of here.
01:33:59 What do I say there, Chief Rooney?
01:34:01 No, I can't do that for you, Red.
01:34:03 We need every swinging dick in the field, and you know that.
01:34:05 Hey, Bob, come on, you can talk to me for Christ's sake.
01:34:07 All I'm asking you for is three fucking days here.
01:34:09 I am talking to you, Red, and I'm telling you no.
01:34:13 Get back in your foxhole.
01:34:15 Bob, I got a bad feeling on this one, all right?
01:34:19 I mean, I got a bad feeling.
01:34:22 I don't think I'm gonna make it out of here.
01:34:25 You understand what I'm saying to you?
01:34:28 Everybody got to die sometime, Red.
01:34:31 Goodbye, motherfuckers!
01:34:58 (helicopter whirring)
01:35:01 It was a fucking ambush.
01:35:12 I didn't even wait until later.
01:35:14 He's fucking coming now, man.
01:35:17 I fucking know.
01:35:24 You know, Junior, some of the things we've done, man,
01:35:28 I don't feel like we've done something wrong.
01:35:31 Sometimes, man...
01:35:34 you get this bad feeling.
01:35:37 I told the Padre the truth, man. I like it here.
01:35:42 You get to do what you want, nobody fucks with you.
01:35:45 The only worry you got is dying.
01:35:48 And if that happens, you won't know about it anyway.
01:35:51 So what the fuck, man?
01:35:53 Shit, I got to be in this hole with you, man.
01:35:56 Just know I shouldn't have come.
01:35:59 Don't you worry, Junior.
01:36:03 You're hanging with Audie Murphy here, my man.
01:36:06 Bravo 3, Bravo 3, Bravo 6, send me a grid, send me a grid, over.
01:36:11 We're pinned down, sir. We're pinned down.
01:36:13 We're under the fucking trees.
01:36:15 Okay, 3-Alpha, now, calm down, son.
01:36:17 I'll get you a fire mission ASAP. Smoke will be first.
01:36:20 Lieutenant's dead. Radio man looks dead, sir.
01:36:23 I don't know where the map is, Captain.
01:36:25 They're all around us, sir.
01:36:27 I can hear 'em talking goop.
01:36:29 Okay, 3-Alpha, now, spot that smoke and tell me where to shift.
01:36:32 Just calm down, son. Hang in there. We'll get you out.
01:36:35 Just tell me where the rounds hit, over.
01:36:38 [ Engine Revving ]
01:36:41 3-Alpha, 6, how about those rounds, son?
01:36:55 Can you adjust fire, over?
01:36:57 3-Alpha, 6, if you can't talk, son, just key your handset twice, over.
01:37:06 [ Gunfire ]
01:37:09 Shit.

01:38:12 RPG!
01:38:16 - Doc! - Yeah!
01:38:20 - Taylor, Francis. - Over here, man!
01:38:23 What the fuck's going on? Rodriguez has all just got nailed, man!
01:38:26 Okay, here. Here it is, man.
01:38:28 We got gooks in the fuckin' perimeter.
01:38:30 - Oh, that's it. - That's it.
01:38:32 That's 3-Alpha company. Anything behind you don't identify itself, fuckin' blow it away, okay?
01:38:37 Fuck. 2, airstrike's coming in.
01:38:40 They're gonna be laying snake and nape.
01:38:42 Don't get out of your fuckin' hole. Stay right here, man.
01:38:45 Fuck.
01:38:47 They're probing us.
01:38:54 They're gonna be going up and down this line all night trying to get through.
01:38:56 All right, stay here. Stay cool. I'll be right back.
01:38:59 [ Radio Chatter ]
01:39:03 [ Radio Chatter ]
01:39:06 Who is it?
01:39:21 Don't shoot! Don't shoot!
01:39:31 - 3-Alpha. - Over here, man. Hurry!
01:39:34 - Shit. - Water.
01:39:40 They're all over the place. 100 of 'em.
01:39:42 One went this way.
01:39:44 Hey, wait this out, man. We need to take a chance.
01:39:48 - I missed the CP. - Back there.
01:39:50 You guys get out of here! They're right on my ass. They ain't stopping for shit.
01:39:54 Hey, Taylor, man, let's deedy.
01:39:59 You go.

01:40:47 Now hold it. Hold it.
01:40:49 [ Gunfire Continues ]
01:40:52 [ Radio Chatter ]

01:41:19 [ Shouting ]
01:41:30 [ Shouting ]
01:41:38 - Fuck me. - Please.
01:41:42 [ Gunfire ]
01:41:45 Die, you motherfuckers!
01:41:58 [ Shouting ]
01:42:11 It's fucking beautiful!
01:42:13 [ Shouting ]
01:42:15 There you go! There you go!
01:42:17 Come on, motherfuckers!
01:42:26 Come on! You can do better than that!
01:42:33 They could be coming next!
01:42:35 Fuck's sake!
01:42:39 Get back here, you godless shit!
01:42:41 Let go! Let go!
01:42:46 Come on! Hit him!
01:42:48 Come on! Go!

01:43:26 All right, give me Bravo. Right away.
01:43:42 Charlie-Cone reports Hanahan and Primrosaur. Three holes are down. They need help.
01:43:45 Okay, get two squads from Alpha down there right away. Go! Go!
01:43:49 Where's that goddamn airstrike?
01:43:51 [ Grunts ]
01:43:53 Hey, you two, where the fuck you going?
01:43:55 [ Shouting ]
01:44:01 Eagle-Six, over.
01:44:05 Can't you get anybody?
01:44:16 I got six, but I got no contact. Can't raise fire.
01:44:18 Two Bravos to Charlie-Douglas. Get me six.
01:44:20 [ Shouting ]
01:44:22 Get him in!
01:44:24 They're coming through all over. I can't do anything!
01:44:30 Where's Barnes?
01:44:32 He's dead. I think they're all dead.
01:44:34 [ Shouting ]
01:44:36 Six, L-6, six!
01:44:38 Captain! Captain, we've been overrun. We're pulling back. Over.
01:44:41 Goddamn it, lieutenant! Where are you gonna pull back to?
01:44:44 They're all over the perimeter.
01:44:46 Now you be advised, you will hold in place.
01:44:49 And you will fight. That means you, lieutenant.
01:44:52 Bravo-Six out.
01:44:54 [ Shouting ]
01:44:57 [ Shouting ]
01:45:24 Be advised, we've got zips in the wire down here.
01:45:27 Roger, you guys. Bravo-Six, can't run in any closer.
01:45:30 We'll have to try and back and sneak a nape, but we're big on fuel.
01:45:34 For the record, it's my call.
01:45:36 Dump everything you've got left on my paws.
01:45:39 I say again, expend all remaining in my perimeter.
01:45:43 It's a lovely fucking war.
01:45:45 Bravo-Six out.
01:45:47 Roger, you guys. Bravo-Six, if you tell me it's your call,
01:45:52 get 'em in their holes down there. Hang tough, Bravo-Six.
01:45:55 We are coming concrete on.

01:50:38 You what? Huh?
01:50:40 Hey, Doc! We need a medic up here!
01:50:44 Come on, Elmo. Come on, Doc! We got one in here!
01:50:48 [ Panting ]
01:50:50 [ Gasps ]
01:51:02 Yeah, that must have been some fuckin' fight.
01:51:10 You alone here, man?
01:51:12 Yeah.
01:51:14 A bunch of freakin' faggots. They all left me.

01:52:13 Hey, Taylor, hey, you!
01:52:26 Hey, Francis.
01:52:28 Hey, man, how you doin'?
01:52:30 I'm okay. How you doin'?
01:52:32 Fine, man. Just fine. Hey, Dig it.
01:52:34 We two-timers, man. We gonna get outta here, boy.
01:52:37 We gonna get outta this hospital. We gonna get high, high, high.
01:52:40 Yes, sir. Turn on Neil.
01:52:42 How you doin'?
01:52:44 I'm just fine, sir.
01:52:46 Well, that's good, because you got second-quintet.
01:52:49 Yes, sir.
01:52:51 You ready?
01:53:02 Yeah.

01:53:50 [ Rumbling continues ]
01:53:53 [ Rumbling continues ]
01:54:17 [ Rumbling continues ]
01:54:20 I think now, looking back,
01:54:34 we did not fight the enemy.
01:54:37 We fought ourselves.
01:54:39 And the enemy was in us.
01:54:43 The war is over for me now,
01:54:46 but it will always be there, the rest of my days,
01:54:50 as I'm sure Elias will be,
01:54:53 fighting with Barnes for what Ra called "possession of my soul."
01:54:57 There are times since I've felt like the child
01:55:02 born of those two fathers.
01:55:05 But be that as it may,
01:55:09 those of us who did make it have an obligation to build again,
01:55:14 to teach to others what we know,
01:55:17 and to try with what's left of our lives
01:55:20 to find a goodness and meaning to this life.
