00:03:42Then, I was one of the men in that farmhouse?

00:03:46Mm-hmm.

00:03:47Second day, one of their dive bombers got through and blew the house to bits.

00:03:51That afternoon, we attacked, smashed them back.

00:03:55When the medical corpsmen searched the ruins,

00:03:57they found that there'd been only four men in that house.

00:04:01Three of them were in such bad shape,

00:04:03they just collected their dog tags and buried them.

00:04:07Fourth man was you.

00:04:09Then, my dog tag was missing?

00:04:13No, not missing, exactly.

00:04:16It had been blown off, you know.

00:04:18Just as theirs had been blown off then.

00:04:20I got the four of them right here.

00:04:23All you have to do is take a look at them.

00:04:25When you see your own name, you'll know it.

00:04:27Paul Gregor.

00:04:31That doesn't mean anything.

00:04:37Carl Gronowski.

00:04:39Joseph Loring.

00:04:50Loring.

00:04:54Peter

00:04:55Amnison.

00:05:00Amnison.

00:05:03Peter Amnison.

00:05:05Amnison.

00:05:05None of them means a thing to you.

00:05:10Not a thing.

00:05:12Well, now, don't let it worry you.

00:05:14We'll get a message through to Washington

00:05:16and get all available information on these men.

00:05:19Height, weight, the works.

00:05:21In the meantime, as I said before,

00:05:24don't let it worry you.

00:05:25Don't let it worry you.

00:05:48Major Williams will see you now.

00:05:58At ease.

00:05:59How tall are you?

00:06:00About 5'11"?

00:06:01Yes, sir.

00:06:01Weigh about 180.

00:06:04Yes, sir.

00:06:04McGregor was 5'10 1⁄2.

00:06:07Loring and Granoffsky were 5'11.

00:06:09Anderson was 6 feet.

00:06:12They were all within a few pounds of what you weigh.

00:06:14I'm afraid we don't know any more than we did.

00:06:17We'll have to let the whole thing go until we land.

00:06:20Then we'll forward your fingerprints

00:06:22and the army will get all the dope it can.

00:06:24You may be sure of that.

00:06:25Yes, sir.

00:06:26I have your travel orders here.

00:06:29We land in a couple of days.

00:06:31These will take you to a hospital

00:06:32where we'll find out who you really are.

00:06:36Meantime, we don't want to call you by a number.

00:06:38We'd better find you a name.

00:06:40Yes, sir.

00:06:41How about

00:06:49John?

00:06:51Johnny?

00:06:52Okay.

00:06:54Johnny what?

00:07:03Johnny March.

00:07:05How's that, sir?

00:07:07Good.

00:07:11What is it, Johnny?

00:07:25About those four men, sir.

00:07:27If I'm one of them,

00:07:29could I have a list of their names and addresses?

00:07:31I think if I study them...

00:07:35Certainly.

00:07:36Take this along.

00:07:39Work over it, Johnny.

00:07:41Thanks.

00:07:41Good news.

00:07:57How are you?

00:08:08How about a smoke?

00:08:13No, thanks.

00:08:14The young folks roll on the little cabin floor

00:08:20All merry, all happy and bright

00:08:24By and by our times come a-knocking at the door

00:08:29Then my old Kentucky home

00:08:33Good night

00:08:35Oh, baby

00:08:36I'm sorry, Moose.

00:08:41Well, let's try it again, fellas.

00:08:43Oh, wait

00:08:44I hate to have to say this, chum, but as a singer, you're strictly off on a cattle boat.

00:08:56Sammy?

00:08:57Yeah?

00:10:17Hey, Pablo, where's the guy I was sitting with?

00:10:19When the train stopped, he jumped off.

00:10:21He got off the train? Why didn't you stop him?

00:10:23Stop him? Why should I?

00:10:25I bet he's going AWOL.

00:10:27Who's going AWOL, soldier?

00:10:29Huh? You heard what I said.

00:10:31Who's going AWOL?

00:10:33I don't know what you're talking about.

00:10:35All I said is, all is well, all is well.

00:15:20I don't know, Johnny.

00:15:22Johnny, it's been so long I've forgotten what it means to have a good time.

00:15:29I guess...

00:15:31I guess I am having a good time.

00:15:35Should I be?

00:15:36Of course you should.

00:15:37Mac would be the first one to want you to.

00:15:40I don't know.

00:15:42Mac didn't have much time for fun during the six months we were married.

00:15:45Six months?

00:15:46Didn't Mac tell you?

00:15:47He owned a fleet of trucks and his work kept him so busy on the road that we hardly had time to get used to each other when...

00:15:57Oh, there are the Bartlets.

00:15:58Mr. Bartlet gave Mac his first job.

00:16:01Do you want to ask them to sit down?

00:16:02Let's.

00:16:04Hello, Mrs. Bartlet.

00:16:06Mac!

00:16:07Sally!

00:16:08When did he get back?

00:16:11Oh, Sally.

00:16:12I'm sorry.

00:16:13Perhaps you'll excuse us.

00:16:14We're having dinner with the...

00:16:16Over there.

00:16:17Come, Martha.

00:16:27You see, Johnny, I shouldn't have come here.

00:16:30Don't let a thing like that body...

00:16:31It's no use.

00:16:32You'd better take me home.

00:16:35All right, Sally.

00:16:35All right.

00:16:36All right.

00:16:42I'm sorry about what happened tonight, Sally.

00:16:49Don't worry, Johnny.

00:16:51I'll see you in the morning.

00:16:52Don't go.

00:16:54I want to talk.

00:16:56I don't feel like talking now.

00:16:58Oh, you've got to snap out of this.

00:17:00I tried to.

00:17:01And you saw what happened.

00:17:03Sure, I saw what happened.

00:17:05I saw you quit.

00:17:06Quit without a fight.

00:17:08And now what do you want to do?

00:17:09You want to move out of town.

00:17:11Give up your friends.

00:17:12Give up your home.

00:17:14Because it reminds you of Mac.

00:17:16Sally, it should remind you of Mac.

00:17:17He fought for this.

00:17:18He gave his life so that you could live here.

00:17:21Oh, please, Sally, listen to me.

00:17:23You can't stop living just because you were hurt.

00:17:26These surroundings are part of you.

00:17:27Part of your life.

00:17:29You've got to love them again.

00:17:30The pictures that Mac helped you hang.

00:17:33And the chair next to the fireplace where he always smoked his pipe.

00:17:38Mac and his pipe.

00:17:39He never was without it, was he?

00:17:42Oh, that isn't the point.

00:17:43I'm just trying to show you.

00:17:45Answer me, Johnny.

00:17:46Answer me.

00:17:50You lied to me.

00:17:52You never knew Mac.

00:17:55He never smoked a pipe in his life.

00:17:58Oh, please, Sally.

00:17:59You never lived there.

00:18:17Oh, please, Jerry.

00:20:18A good thing.

00:20:20That's because you knew my husband so well, isn't it?

00:20:23You and he were buddies.

00:20:25I was sitting on the front porch writing you a note when I heard the garage doors open.

00:20:29I don't have to give you that note now because I'm going to tell you about it.

00:20:32You're not going to tell me anything.

00:20:34I've heard enough from you already.

00:20:37Sally, you've got to listen.

00:20:38Oh, no, I don't.

00:20:39Please, Sally.

00:20:40Why don't you go home?

00:20:44Home?

00:20:47I thought this might be my home.

00:20:50It's a laugh.

00:20:51What are you talking about?

00:20:53What are you talking about?

00:20:55You think I'm a phony, don't you?

00:21:19But I had to come here, Sally.

00:21:22I had to find out something.

00:21:25See, I've got a smashed up life to rebuild and so have you.

00:21:30What have you got to rebuild?

00:21:34You came back.

00:21:36All you have to do now is pick up where you left off.

00:21:39It'd be swell if I knew where I left off.

00:21:43Meaning?

00:21:44Meaning there really isn't any such person as Johnny March.

00:21:50He might have been Paul McGregor.

00:21:52And now, he may be Joseph Loring of Chester, West Virginia,

00:22:01Carl Gronowski of Chicago, Illinois,

00:22:04or Peter Anderson from Knoxville, Iowa.

00:22:08Sounds all mixed up, just like I am.

00:22:12See, it started in France, just after the invasion.

00:22:17And your next stop is Chester, West Virginia?

00:22:20Yeah.

00:22:22When do you think he'll be showing off?

00:22:24Tomorrow.

00:22:26The sooner I learn about my past,

00:22:28the sooner I can start my future.

00:22:33Johnny.

00:22:36This isn't easy to say, but...

00:22:39Thanks.

00:22:41For everything.

00:22:42For everything.

00:22:52Better come in and get ready if you want that lift to New York.

00:22:54Stan will be here in a few minutes.

00:22:56All right.

00:22:59So, sir.

00:23:15Thanks.

00:23:17Thanks.

00:23:18Thanks.

00:23:18You're welcome.

00:23:19You're welcome.

00:23:19Thanks.

00:23:20Thanks.

00:23:20Maybe.

00:23:21ael.

00:23:21Maybe.

00:23:21You're welcome.

00:23:23We're welcome.

00:23:23Thanks.

00:23:24Thanks.

00:23:24Remember them?

00:23:24Well, I guess this is goodbye, isn't it?

00:23:50I guess it is.

00:23:54We'd better go, Johnny.

00:24:24We'd better go, Johnny.

00:24:54Daddy!

00:24:55Oh, Daddy, I'm so glad you're so glad.

00:25:01Daddy!

00:25:02Oh, Daddy, I'm so glad you're so glad.

00:25:08You are my daddy, aren't you?

00:25:09They told me you wouldn't come, but I knew different.

00:25:15Of course you did.

00:25:16Where is your mother?

00:25:17Is she home?

00:25:18No, she's working at the hospital.

00:25:19Will she be home soon?

00:25:20In a little while.

00:25:21And, oh, Daddy, I'm so glad you've come back.

00:25:26Say there, son.

00:25:27Take it easy.

00:25:28Take it easy.

00:25:29I'm right now.

00:25:30I'm right now.

00:25:31I'm right now.

00:25:32You haven't told me how much I've grown, Daddy.

00:25:33Haven't I grown a lot?

00:25:34Haven't I grown a lot?

00:25:35Oh, you're positively enormous.

00:25:36Enormous?

00:25:37Oh, you're positively enormous.

00:25:38Enormous?

00:25:39I haven't ruined that word yet.

00:25:40It's a lot of man.

00:25:41You're not a man.

00:25:42Oh, you're a man.

00:25:43Oh, you're a man.

00:25:44I'm sorry, Daddy.

00:25:45I'm so glad you've come back.

00:25:46Oh, Daddy, I'm so glad you've come back.

00:25:49There, son.

00:25:50Take it easy.

00:25:51I'm right now.

00:25:55You haven't told me how much I've grown, Daddy.

00:26:00Haven't I grown a lot?

00:26:02Oh, you're positively enormous.

00:26:06Enormous?

00:26:08I haven't roomed outward yet.

00:26:12What's it mean?

00:26:15It means you've grown so big I...

00:26:17I doubt if I'd recognize you.

00:26:27You...

00:26:29You haven't told me how your mother is.

00:26:31Pretty well, I suppose.

00:26:33She used to cry a lot at night and wake me up.

00:26:35But now I have my own room.

00:26:38Daddy? Daddy?

00:26:42Shh!

00:27:08Just like you left it, isn't it, Daddy?

00:27:12Just like you left it, isn't it, Daddy?

00:27:18Just like you left it, isn't it, Daddy?

00:27:24Will you work here all the time, not just nights?

00:27:26Why do you ask that?

00:27:28Well, Mommy said you did your best work here.

00:27:32She did?

00:27:34You see her pictures, aren't they, Daddy?

00:27:36You see her pictures, aren't they, Daddy?

00:27:38Say, this is all right.

00:27:40Looks good, isn't it?

00:27:42Hmm?

00:27:43When nobody was here, Daddy, I used to look at these pictures.

00:27:46You did?

00:27:47Which one do you like the best?

00:27:48I like this one.

00:27:50I like this one.

00:27:51I'm building a house just like it.

00:27:52You are?

00:27:53It's a real pretty one, isn't it?

00:27:54You bet it is.

00:27:55I'd like to live in a house like that.

00:27:56You would?

00:27:57Well, I'm building a house just like it.

00:27:59You are?

00:28:00It's a real pretty one, isn't it?

00:28:01You bet it is.

00:28:03I'd like to live in a house like that.

00:28:04You would.

00:28:05I'd like to live in a house like that.

00:28:06I would.

00:28:07I'd like to live in a house like that.

00:28:09You would.

00:28:10kid? Which one do you like the best? I like this one. I'm building a house just like it. You are? It's a real pretty one, isn't it? You bet it is. I'd like to live in a house like that. You would? Of course, I never touch it. Without, I wash my hands real careful first, and I dried them real good, too. Let's look at the rest of the pictures, Daddy. You bet, son.

00:28:36Designed for living. Fascist style. Condemnation proceedings to take precedence over all other work. What does it mean, Daddy? It's very simple, son. A lot of things had gone wrong because a lot of people thought wrong, and we had to straighten out their thinking for them and fix the wrong things they had done. So little boys like you would have a place like that to play in, houses like that to live in.

00:29:07Like you have to get all the weeds out of the garden before I can grow things? Roger. And did you do it, Daddy? Did you fix all the bad things? Well, it isn't a job anyone can do by himself. I helped a little, I hope. You see, it was a big job, and many people helped. But it'll take a long time before all the bad things are fixed.

00:29:27Daddy? Daddy? Daddy? Where are you?

00:29:56Is that your mother?

00:29:58It's Miss Carew. She takes care of me when Mommy's in the hospital. I don't like her very much, Daddy.

00:30:04You'd better answer her.

00:30:05Daddy? Do you know Daddy?

00:30:07I'm here, Miss Carew, and Daddy's workshop. Daddy's here, too.

00:30:11What?

00:30:13Daddy, Lori.

00:30:14Who is this man?

00:30:16He's my Daddy.

00:30:18Who are you?

00:30:19He's my Daddy. I tell you, he is. He is.

00:30:23Tell her, Daddy.

00:30:24It's a strange situation, Miss Carew. And a difficult one to explain. You see, Tati and I were talking it over, and we weren't quite through, so if you could give us a few more minutes together.

00:30:35But I don't see why...

00:30:36I assure you it'll be all right.

00:30:38Well, a few minutes, then.

00:30:41Yeah, there's nothing to cry about. You're a big boy.

00:30:49But why did you tell me you were my Daddy?

00:30:52Well, it's like this, Tati.

00:30:54Your Daddy sort of sent me to you.

00:30:57Well, he was one of the finest and bravest men in the whole world.

00:31:01And I want you to always remember that.

00:31:04He was a good soldier, and good soldiers don't cry.

00:31:06And you've got to be a good soldier. You have a job.

00:31:12Roger.

00:31:13That's a good one.

00:31:15I must go.

00:31:16Don't go. I want you to stay.

00:31:19I have to go, Tati.

00:31:21I've got a job to do, too.

00:31:23Come on, fella.

00:31:24Come on.

00:31:24Come on, fella.

00:31:54Good-bye, Tati.

00:32:04Good-bye, Tati.

00:32:17Come on, Tati.

00:32:24Come on, Tati.

00:32:37Come on, Tati.

00:32:38Are you looking for someone?

00:32:42Are you looking for someone?

00:32:48Are you looking for someone?

00:32:54Sort of.

00:32:55Can I help you?

00:32:57I'm afraid not.

00:32:59Thanks, Annie.

00:33:18Yes?

00:33:42I'm sorry to bother you, but I'm looking for the Granovskis.

00:33:46Granovskis?

00:33:46They don't live here anymore.

00:33:48Oh.

00:33:49We don't know them.

00:33:50One of them went into the army, and his brother moved away just before he came in here.

00:33:56I wonder if by any chance you'd know why they moved him.

00:34:00Leo, come here a minute.

00:34:03I'm sorry to put you through all this trouble.

00:34:05Now what is it?

00:34:06Always you got some...

00:34:09A fine thing, Maria.

00:34:10Keeping a soldier standing outside our door.

00:34:12Where's your manners?

00:34:13Ask him in.

00:34:14I just wanted some information.

00:34:16I'm looking for the Granovskis.

00:34:18Well, there is only one of them left.

00:34:20That is Joe, the younger one.

00:34:22He works by Frank Siracos on Rush Street.

00:34:27530, I think the number is.

00:34:28Did you know him?

00:34:29Well, I met the young one once or twice.

00:34:32Carly Alda was in the army.

00:34:34Took care of his brother for a long time.

00:34:36And then besides, he had La Chancelenza.

00:34:38What is that?

00:34:40I don't know how you say it.

00:34:42It means like healing hands.

00:34:44He used to take care of things that are sick.

00:34:47Dogs, cats, birds.

00:34:50I remember we had a man like that in the old country.

00:34:53In our village, we thought he was better than any doctor.

00:34:56I see.

00:34:57Well, thank you very much.

00:34:59You're welcome.

00:34:59Maybe you'd like to fix a cup of tea for you

00:35:02and a nice piece of comb with me.

00:35:04Thank you, but I'm sort of in a hurry.

00:35:07Goodbye.

00:35:08So long, soldier.

00:35:09Goodbye, soldier.

00:35:10Goodbye, soldier.

00:35:10What will it be, friend?

00:35:32Looking for Joe Granowski.

00:35:35Is he around?

00:35:36Yeah.

00:35:37He's in the back room through there.

00:35:40Thanks.

00:35:52Sixth and higher layer.

00:35:54Indian summer.

00:35:55Colombo.

00:35:56Gadget.

00:36:07Looking for someone, soldier?

00:36:09Yes.

00:36:10Joe Granowski.

00:36:12Over there.

00:36:12First window.

00:36:13But he's kind of busy right now.

00:36:14Okay.

00:36:32Attention please, attention please, the fourth at Bimlico, the fourth at Bimlico, scratch

00:36:49number three, scratch number three.

00:36:52Hey, wait a minute, what's the idea?

00:37:02There isn't any idea, I just...

00:37:05Did you know his brother by any chance?

00:37:09Sure I did, he worked for me two years before he went in the army, why?

00:37:13Hey, wait a minute, was you a friend of Carl's?

00:37:16In a way, in France.

00:37:19Hey, Joe, Joe, come here a minute.

00:37:22Anything the matter, boss?

00:37:26Uh-huh, I want you to meet up with, uh, what'd you say your name, what soldier?

00:37:31March, John March.

00:37:33I'm Frankie Sirocco, and this is Joe Kornowski.

00:37:36Hello, Joe.

00:37:37He was with Carl in France.

00:37:39You were with Carl?

00:37:43Hello, Frankie, how's Trix?

00:37:46Hi, Rox.

00:37:47Hello, boys.

00:37:48Hi.

00:37:49Hello, Mr. Donnelly.

00:37:50I'd better get back to the window and do it.

00:37:53Stick around, kid.

00:37:54Boys can get along without you.

00:37:55But the last race is...

00:37:56I said stick around.

00:37:58Something I want to talk to you two about.

00:38:00But it can wait till the customers leave.

00:38:03Donnelly's her name.

00:38:04Rox Donnelly.

00:38:05John March.

00:38:06Oh.

00:38:07This is indeed a pleasure, Mr. March.

00:38:10Well, Frankie, while we're waiting, how about a little liquid refreshment, huh?

00:38:13Sure, Rox.

00:38:14What'll it be, soldier?

00:38:16I'll have beer.

00:38:17I'll have a straight bourbon.

00:38:18Same here.

00:38:19Wait a minute.

00:38:20Wait a minute.

00:38:23Give Mr. March his beer.

00:38:24Me and the boys will have three milks.

00:38:26Now, wait a minute, Rox.

00:38:27Just because your liver's kicking up...

00:38:29Shut up.

00:38:29What's it all about?

00:38:30Stay no attention to these characters, Frankie.

00:38:33They're beefing on account of giving a little blood.

00:38:35Who's beefing about giving blood?

00:38:37They wouldn't let me in the army on account of this liver of mine,

00:38:39so I had to find other ways to help out.

00:38:41Giving blood is one of them.

00:38:42And Rox Donnelly don't do nothing halfway.

00:38:45When me or my boys gives blood,

00:38:47it's nothing but the finest quality and in an A1 condition.

00:38:50So for one week before we give,

00:38:52all alcoholic beverages are strictly out.

00:38:54I said three milks.

00:38:56Hey, Jay.

00:38:57Sit down, Johnny.

00:38:59One beer and three milks.

00:39:01Okay, boss.

00:39:05Well, Rox, what's on your mind?

00:39:08Oh, nothing very much.

00:39:09Just the 6,000 bucks you owe me.

00:39:11What are you talking about?

00:39:13Well, unless I've been very badly misinformed,

00:39:15Green Gremlin comes in at 5 to 1 in a fourth race last Tuesday

00:39:18with a thousand bucks of mine on her nose.

00:39:21Here's a slip.

00:39:26Joe, get me last Tuesday's book.

00:39:28There's no need to, Frankie.

00:39:31It's not in there.

00:39:32Well, you can say that again.

00:39:34But what I want to know is...

00:39:36Hey.

00:39:38Wait a minute.

00:39:39That's right.

00:39:40I did it.

00:39:41Rox let me on the street

00:39:42and gave me the money to put on Green Gremlin.

00:39:45I needed that money.

00:39:47And I had a hot tip on another horse.

00:39:49So I gave Rox the slip.

00:39:53Never entered it in the book

00:39:54and put the dough on my horse.

00:39:58But Green Gremlin won.

00:39:59Oh, you dirty double-crossing,

00:40:01lumpy-digger.

00:40:01You must take your hands off me.

00:40:03Oh, the soldier's right, Frankie.

00:40:05Rough stuff ain't gonna get you no place.

00:40:07I put down a grand and my horse won.

00:40:10I don't care who pays me,

00:40:11but I want the six grand that's coming to me

00:40:13and I want it now.

00:40:14Keep your shirt on.

00:40:15You'll get your dough.

00:40:16This is what I get

00:40:17for getting mixed up

00:40:18with a guy who's...

00:40:19Look out!

00:40:20Look out!

00:40:23Shut that door!

00:40:29Somebody turn on the lights.

00:40:34He's been hit twice

00:40:35in the shoulder and the chest.

00:40:36Somebody get an ambulance, quick.

00:40:41All an ambulance.

00:40:46Who is this character?

00:40:48Danny Parvich.

00:40:49One of Red Nose Monkeys.

00:40:50Why would Spade be sending a guy around

00:40:52to put the heat on Joe?

00:40:53He wasn't at the Joe.

00:40:55Me.

00:40:57You see, Frankie,

00:40:57I ain't been making any secret

00:40:58how I felt about that dough you owe me.

00:41:00Must have given Spade an idea.

00:41:02He figures if he can work this deal,

00:41:03it'll look like you and me

00:41:04had an altercation and you plugged me.

00:41:07Well, boys,

00:41:07guess we got a job to do.

00:41:08Let's get going.

00:41:09Okay.

00:41:10Oh, uh...

00:41:11You better bring little Rollo.

00:41:12We may need him.

00:41:13It'll be a pleasure.

00:41:14Come on, unconscious.

00:41:17How do you feel, Joe?

00:41:20Not so good.

00:41:22Take it easy.

00:41:23The ambulance will be here

00:41:24in a few minutes.

00:41:25Well, I've always wanted to

00:41:26ride in an ambulance.

00:41:30Only...

00:41:31Only what, Joe?

00:41:32Would you

00:41:33do me a favor?

00:41:36Sure, I will.

00:41:37Just in case...

00:41:39in case things don't

00:41:41work out so good.

00:41:43Will you come to the hospital

00:41:46with me?

00:41:47You bet I will.

00:41:48I don't get it.

00:41:50I can't figure the angle.

00:41:52Can't figure what angle?

00:41:53Well, Joe ain't crooked.

00:41:54I'll swear to that.

00:41:55But this deal that he's

00:41:56trying to pull at me

00:41:57is more than I...

00:41:57How's the kid?

00:41:58Rest him easy.

00:41:59That's doctor talk

00:42:00for a guy being out

00:42:01like a light.

00:42:02But they'll call us

00:42:02when he comes to.

00:42:04Hey, Rox.

00:42:05What's with the glim?

00:42:06Uh-oh.

00:42:07I guess I bumped

00:42:08into a door.

00:42:10I don't suppose

00:42:10nothing was happening

00:42:11to Spade Reynolds

00:42:12while all this was going on.

00:42:13Reynolds.

00:42:14I don't think

00:42:15I ever heard of the gentleman.

00:42:19Mr. Marge?

00:42:20Yes.

00:42:21You can come in

00:42:21for a few moments now.

00:42:22We just finished

00:42:23getting the information

00:42:24for the police reports.

00:42:25He's been asking for you.

00:42:26Thanks.

00:42:27Uh, how about us?

00:42:28Well, he's not very strong yet.

00:42:31But I guess

00:42:31it'll be all right.

00:42:38Well, Joe?

00:42:44Looks like everything's okay.

00:42:46Yeah.

00:42:47Just my luck.

00:42:49Say, look here, kid.

00:42:50There's something

00:42:50I gotta know.

00:42:51Was you aware

00:42:51of the fact that Spade

00:42:52had a guy looking for me?

00:42:53No, not till I saw

00:42:54a guy standing there

00:42:55with a gun in his hand.

00:42:56Well, then why did you yell?

00:42:57If you'd have kept

00:42:58still and let him

00:42:58burn me down,

00:42:59you wouldn't have to

00:42:59worry about the six grand.

00:43:01Why did I do it?

00:43:03I guess it's just

00:43:04that I'm a sucker.

00:43:05You think a guy

00:43:06that thinks enough

00:43:07of something to stop

00:43:08lead as a sucker?

00:43:09Don't you?

00:43:11I'm just wondering

00:43:13about your brother.

00:43:14You keep him out of this.

00:43:15Carl took care

00:43:16of both of us

00:43:17until he went in the army.

00:43:19Just before he left,

00:43:20he told me

00:43:20he was fighting

00:43:21for a right.

00:43:23His right to become

00:43:23a doctor

00:43:24so he could help me.

00:43:26And look what

00:43:27it got him.

00:43:29I figured one chump

00:43:30like that in the family

00:43:31was enough.

00:43:32Well, if you had

00:43:33it figured out that way,

00:43:34why did you look out

00:43:34for me, a guy who just

00:43:35tried to double cross?

00:43:36I just told you why.

00:43:38Because I'm a sucker.

00:43:40A chump.

00:43:41If you hadn't

00:43:42stopped them bullets,

00:43:43Rocks would have been

00:43:43colder than a pair

00:43:44of Eskimos ankles.

00:43:46And then nobody

00:43:47would have owed

00:43:47nobody nothing.

00:43:49Right, Rocks?

00:43:51Right.

00:43:52And as far as I'm concerned,

00:43:53if I may be permitted

00:43:55to borrow your phrase

00:43:56to my good friend Frankie,

00:43:57that's the way it is.

00:43:58To don't nobody

00:43:59owe nobody nothing.

00:44:00Check.

00:44:00And when you get

00:44:01out of here, Joe,

00:44:02your old job

00:44:03will be waiting for you.

00:44:04You better throw in

00:44:05with me, kid,

00:44:05where you'll be

00:44:06appreciated.

00:44:08What's the matter, Joe?

00:44:10I don't feel so good.

00:44:11Did I say something wrong?

00:44:13No, Rocks.

00:44:14I think Joe wants

00:44:15to do something different.

00:44:17What do you mean?

00:44:18I think he might

00:44:19want to be a dot.

00:44:21How did you know that?

00:44:23Well, that's what

00:44:24Carl wanted.

00:44:25I figured you'd want

00:44:26to take up

00:44:26where he left off.

00:44:28Yeah, but...

00:44:30Oh, how could I?

00:44:32College and medical school,

00:44:34that takes a lot of money.

00:44:35Well, don't worry

00:44:36about that, young fellow.

00:44:37That'll be my department.

00:44:38And say, listen,

00:44:39while you're studying

00:44:40all that stuff,

00:44:40will you learn

00:44:41something about livers?

00:44:42Like any right-thinking

00:44:43businessman, I've got to

00:44:44figure on getting

00:44:44some return on my investment.

00:44:45And that's a funny thing

00:44:46about my liver.

00:44:47I'm sorry,

00:44:47but you'll have to go now.

00:44:49Oh, yes, miss.

00:44:50Yeah.

00:44:50So long,

00:44:51I'll be seeing you.

00:44:52Be seeing you.

00:44:56Goodbye, Joe.

00:44:57Goodbye.

00:45:00I want you to know...

00:45:03Don't try to talk anymore.

00:45:07So long.

00:45:17Where are you going

00:45:17from here, Johnny?

00:45:18I'm going...

00:45:19Home.

00:45:21Where's that?

00:45:26Knoxville Isle.

00:45:27They ain't leaving

00:45:27tonight, are you?

00:45:29Yeah, just as soon as I

00:45:29got a bite to eat.

00:45:30Well, how about

00:45:31having dinner at my place?

00:45:32Well, I...

00:45:32You've got to eat someplace.

00:45:34I'm going to throw a party.

00:45:35I want you to meet

00:45:36my girlfriend anyway.

00:45:37Bring them along, Frankie.

00:45:37Okay, Rox.

00:45:38Okay.

00:45:52Ladies and gentlemen,

00:45:54I wish to propose a toast

00:45:55to Rox Darnley.

00:45:57Here's to your good health,

00:45:58Rox.

00:45:59Thanks.

00:46:00And aren't we glad

00:46:00you've still got it?

00:46:02Wanda, I want you

00:46:03to meet Johnny March.

00:46:08Johnny, I want you

00:46:09to meet Wanda.

00:46:10Hello.

00:46:10And make sure he

00:46:11enjoys himself.

00:46:12See you later.

00:46:15Hello.

00:46:16I've been watching

00:46:17you, soldier.

00:46:19Would you like a light?

00:46:20Please.

00:46:24And I get the general idea

00:46:25that you're not having

00:46:26such a good time.

00:46:28Tell you the truth,

00:46:29I was just leaving.

00:46:30Oh, stick around.

00:46:31I was getting a little

00:46:31bored myself.

00:46:33Rox tells me you just

00:46:34got back from overseas.

00:46:36Yes, I did.

00:46:38Well, after what

00:46:39you've been through,

00:46:39doesn't this sort of thing

00:46:41make you just a little sore?

00:46:42Well, parties are the thing

00:46:45that guys overseas

00:46:46dream about.

00:46:48What else do they

00:46:49dream about, soldier?

00:46:51Well, this isn't exactly

00:46:53the place to talk

00:46:54about dreams.

00:46:56I can do something

00:46:57about that.

00:46:58Come on.

00:46:59Come on.

00:47:22Come on.

00:47:23Tell me about those dreams.

00:47:25Well, then.

00:47:26They're not easy

00:47:27to tell.

00:47:29Well, we have

00:47:29plenty of time.

00:47:30Or have we?

00:47:32How long

00:47:32are you going to be

00:47:33in Chicago?

00:47:34Not long.

00:47:35Well, that's too bad.

00:47:38Why?

00:47:39Because I like you.

00:47:42You don't even know

00:47:43who I am.

00:47:44Well, is that necessary?

00:47:47Well, it'd be

00:47:47kind of nice

00:47:48if one of us knew.

00:47:49Well, I don't get that

00:47:52one at all.

00:47:53Well, look, Miss Wanda,

00:47:55I'm not trying to be

00:47:56mysterious.

00:47:58Come on, soldier.

00:47:59There's a girl

00:48:00somewhere, isn't there?

00:48:02Why do you say that?

00:48:05There's a telephone

00:48:05out there.

00:48:06Why don't you go

00:48:06call her up?

00:48:08Well, I'm in Chicago

00:48:10and she's in Connecticut.

00:48:11Rox won't mind.

00:48:13He can afford it.

00:48:16Maybe this has been

00:48:17said before, but

00:48:18women are funny.

00:48:21Come on, don't give me

00:48:22any more arguments.

00:48:23Go on to Mary Foner.

00:48:24Operator, I want

00:48:49Mrs. Sally McGregor

00:48:50at Bridgeton, Connecticut.

00:48:53That's right, Bridgeton.

00:48:54B-R-I-D-G-E-T-O-N.

00:49:09Hello?

00:49:10Hello, ready

00:49:11with your party?

00:49:13Hello, Sally.

00:49:15Who is it?

00:49:16Johnny.

00:49:17Johnny March?

00:49:19Where are you?

00:49:20Chicago.

00:49:21Have you found

00:49:22out anything?

00:49:23No, but there's

00:49:24only one more name

00:49:24left on the list

00:49:25and that must be it.

00:49:26You mean Anderson

00:49:28in Knoxville, Iowa?

00:49:29Sally, you remember.

00:49:32I remember lots

00:49:33of things, Johnny.

00:49:34Sally, would you...

00:49:37would you come out

00:49:38to Knoxville

00:49:38to me and be there?

00:49:39But, Johnny, I...

00:49:41I didn't want to have

00:49:42to say it exactly

00:49:43this way, but...

00:49:44I don't have to tell you

00:49:45that I love you, do I?

00:49:47You know that already.

00:49:49You must have known

00:49:50it the day I left.

00:49:51But, Johnny, darling,

00:49:53you're forgetting

00:49:53something, aren't you?

00:49:55A kind of important

00:49:56something.

00:49:58You don't even know yet

00:49:59whether you're married

00:50:00or not.

00:50:01I can't be.

00:50:02Why not?

00:50:03Well, I just can't be.

00:50:04It wouldn't be right.

00:50:06Well, if you're

00:50:06Ronnie here, I could tell you

00:50:07or maybe I wouldn't

00:50:08have to tell you.

00:50:09This isn't a magazine

00:50:10story, Johnny.

00:50:12In real life,

00:50:13things don't always

00:50:14work out the way

00:50:15they're supposed to.

00:50:16I know.

00:50:17I guess you're right.

00:50:18I'll have to go see.

00:50:20It's the best way.

00:50:22Then when I get home,

00:50:23I'll call you again.

00:50:26I'll be waiting, Johnny.

00:50:28Bye.

00:50:29Bye.

00:50:32Is everything okay?

00:50:46It's fine to be.

00:50:47That's great.

00:50:49I'm like one of those

00:50:50Kipling characters

00:50:51who can fix things

00:50:52for everybody

00:50:52but themselves.

00:50:55You don't want

00:50:55to go back in there,

00:50:56do you?

00:50:57I don't want to

00:50:58seem ungrateful,

00:50:59but I've got a long

00:50:59way to go.

00:51:01So I'd better get going.

00:51:02Well, then don't bother

00:51:02to say goodbye.

00:51:04The library's in there.

00:51:05The elevator's

00:51:06across the hall.

00:51:16Good luck, soldier.

00:51:17So long.

00:51:18All right.

00:51:18Thank you, sir.

00:51:20Thank you, sir.

00:51:23Thank you, sir.

00:51:24Thank you, Mr.

00:51:25Oh, my God.

00:51:55Oh, my God.

00:52:25Oh, my God.

00:52:55He had a son about your age.

00:52:57For a long time, he was missing in action.

00:52:59Last week, we got official notice.

00:53:02Hobo's the one that's to blame.

00:53:04He was Peter's dog.

00:53:06And when I saw him jumping on you,

00:53:09I forgot he acts like that towards every soldier.

00:53:12Thanks, Dad.

00:53:20You look tired, boy.

00:53:22Have you come a long way?

00:53:25I have come a long way.

00:53:27We were just going to sit down for supper.

00:53:30You'll stay and have a bite of swancho.

00:53:32Well, I...

00:53:32Of course, you will.

00:53:34Sit right there.

00:53:35Yeah.

00:53:35I'll have supper ready in a minute.

00:53:38Dad, call Harry.

00:53:41Yes, Mother.

00:53:48Harry!

00:53:48Supper!

00:53:55Serve the stew, Dad.

00:53:56Hello, Harry.

00:54:10Hello.

00:54:11This is...

00:54:12You didn't tell us your name, son.

00:54:14John March.

00:54:16This is Johnny March.

00:54:17And this is Harry Parker.

00:54:19Hello, Harry.

00:54:21Harry works for us.

00:54:25All right, Dad.

00:54:28Dear Lord,

00:54:29inasmuch of this food of which we are about to partake

00:54:31comes to us out of thine infinite loving kindness.

00:54:35Grant that for what we are about to receive,

00:54:37we shall be truly grateful.

00:54:39Amen.

00:54:40Amen.

00:54:40Yeah.

00:54:41Truly grateful.

00:54:43For nothing.

00:54:44Harry.

00:54:44I've always been one for speaking what was in my mind,

00:54:46and I ain't gonna stop doing it now.

00:54:48I've told you you have nothing to worry about, haven't I?

00:54:50Chuck Walters will pay you more than I'm paying you now.

00:54:54Please, Dad.

00:54:55We have a guest.

00:54:56I'm sorry.

00:54:57Don't let me stop.

00:54:59Mother's right.

00:55:00It's just that, well,

00:55:02we don't have much company.

00:55:04And I guess I've let my manners get sort of rusty.

00:55:06I should say you'd have a lot of guests

00:55:08if you invited everybody as casually as you did me.

00:55:11Especially not knowing anything about me or who I am.

00:55:14You wear the same uniform our boy wore, son.

00:55:17That's enough for Dad and me.

00:55:19You knew Peter, didn't you?

00:55:22Yes.

00:55:22I was with him in France when he was killed.

00:55:28But you knew about it.

00:55:41Mr. Anderson told me.

00:55:42Yes, we knew.

00:55:45We received a telegram last week.

00:55:47It's just that Peter and his father were so close.

00:55:51I knew you had something to do with Peter.

00:55:54I was afraid to say it, but I knew.

00:55:57And when it came, was it quick?

00:56:04He didn't suffer a single instant.

00:56:06I knew how difficult it must be for you to talk about it.

00:56:15Especially when you're so tired.

00:56:19Would you like to go out and sit on the porch for a while with Dad?

00:56:22Or would you rather go to your room?

00:56:25My room?

00:56:26You're staying overnight, aren't you?

00:56:28To tell you the truth, I hadn't planned on...

00:56:31Are they expecting you someplace else?

00:56:34No.

00:56:35Then you will stay, won't you?

00:56:38As a favor to us.

00:56:40I'd love to, thanks.

00:56:41Good.

00:56:42Now finish your supper, then I'll look after Dad.

00:56:52I guess the Andersons were pretty cut up when they...

00:56:55Heard about the death of their son, weren't they?

00:56:57Yeah, she's quieter down a bit now...

00:56:59But Anderson ain't been the same since it happened.

00:57:02He just don't seem to give a hoot about anything anymore.

00:57:05That's why he's getting rid of the place.

00:57:07Selling out?

00:57:08Yeah.

00:57:08Tamara, lock, stock and barrel.

00:57:11They're moving in the town.

00:57:12Mrs. Anderson don't want to go.

00:57:14Neither do I.

00:57:15We've argued with him for hours at a time, but it don't do no good.

00:57:20Certainly in a hurry, wasn't he?

00:57:22He says the sooner the better.

00:57:24That's of course everything about the place reminds him of a boy.

00:57:29Finished, son?

00:57:30Yes, thanks.

00:57:31How's Mr. Anderson?

00:57:32He's all right.

00:57:33He isn't as young as he used to be.

00:57:34And things upset him more, son, how?

00:57:37I've certainly caused a lot of trouble around here, haven't I?

00:57:39First you, and then Mr. Anderson.

00:57:41Just don't you give it another thought.

00:57:43We're glad you came.

00:57:45For a lot of reasons.

00:57:46I'm thinking you need a little rest, Johnny.

00:57:49Thanks.

00:57:50I am sorry.

00:57:50This was Peter's room.

00:58:04He was the proudest kid in the country.

00:58:22The day he won that 4-H prize.

00:58:34Rest well, son.

00:58:35By the way, I don't think I know your name.

00:59:05By the way, I don't think I know your name.

00:59:08I'm Sally McGregor.

00:59:11Paul was my husband.

00:59:13Who are you?

00:59:14I'm Sally McGregor.

00:59:16Paul was my husband.

00:59:19Who are you?

00:59:20But why did you tell me you were my daddy?

00:59:23But why did you tell me you were my daddy?

00:59:25What'd you say your name was, soldier?

00:59:27What'd you say your name was, soldier?

00:59:31It's Johnny March.

00:59:32It was Johnny March.

00:59:34It was Johnny March.

00:59:36It was Johnny March.

00:59:38It was Johnny March.

00:59:39It was Johnny March.

00:59:40It was Johnny March.

00:59:42It was Johnny March.

00:59:43It was Johnny March.

00:59:44It was Johnny March.

00:59:45It was Johnny March.

00:59:46It was Johnny March.

00:59:47It was Johnny March.

00:59:48It was Johnny March.

00:59:49It was Johnny March.

00:59:50It was Johnny March.

00:59:51It was Johnny March.

00:59:52It was Johnny March.

00:59:53It was Johnny March.

00:59:54It was Johnny March.

00:59:55It was Johnny March.

00:59:56It was Johnny March.

00:59:57It was Johnny March.

00:59:58It was Johnny March.

00:59:59It was Johnny March.

01:00:00It was Johnny March.

01:00:01It was Johnny March.

01:00:02This thing's time to get you down, hasn't it?

01:00:21It's a little hard to have people walking around your house and pawing your things.

01:00:26I know now I made a mistake.

01:00:28I guess I'll just sit up here out of the way, until it's over.

01:00:48All right, folks, let's have it a little quiet, please.

01:00:51I guess you all know why we're here, without any long palaver for me.

01:00:54All I need to remind you is that we're selling the Anderson Farm,

01:00:57the finest farm in the county, the best equipment, the best furniture,

01:01:00and the finest collection of livestock for 100 miles around.

01:01:03And we'll start with the house furnishings piece by piece,

01:01:06and when they're disposed of, we'll move on to the farm equipment.

01:01:09Just a minute, please.

01:01:10What do you want? This auction has to get started.

01:01:13I'd like to say a word to these folks before this sale takes place.

01:01:16We ain't got any time for that now.

01:01:18Ladies and gentlemen, what I was about to say...

01:01:20Let's hear what the soldier has to say, Sid.

01:01:22Thanks.

01:01:22It's just that I don't think this auction should be held.

01:01:25I know that Mr. Anderson decided to sell this farm.

01:01:28But when he made that decision, he wasn't himself.

01:01:32I think you all know the reason why.

01:01:35You see, this just wasn't a farm to him.

01:01:38It was something far more precious,

01:01:39something that he and his son had built together.

01:01:42Now that son is gone.

01:01:43But as long as this farm endures,

01:01:46something of that boy will remain to give hope and consolation to two hearts.

01:01:51His father's and his mother's.

01:01:54Mr. Anderson doesn't see it that way now, but he will.

01:01:59For there isn't anything more important in the whole world

01:02:01than the love of a mother and a father for a boy that's gone.

01:02:05Unless it's the happiness they may still find

01:02:07in keeping faith with that boy's ideals.

01:02:09Especially when keeping faith with those ideals means

01:02:13helping to feed the millions of hungry kids

01:02:16that are waiting for the things this farm can produce.

01:02:19Very good.

01:02:20Very good indeed.

01:02:21But this sale is going to go through just the way we planned it.

01:02:23And now, folks, I want to call your attention to this beautiful chair over here,

01:02:26trimmed in solid golden oak.

01:02:28I saw the invoice on this myself,

01:02:30and I don't mind telling you,

01:02:31the Anderson's paid a pretty penny for it.

01:02:32Yes, sir.

01:02:33Made by the best manufacturers in Grand Rapids.

01:02:36Who'll make the end offer?

01:02:36It's in first-class condition.

01:02:37Come, come, Len. How about you?

01:02:39You could use this chair over there.

01:02:55Don't cry, Mrs. Anderson.

01:02:57Nothing's going to be so.

01:02:59You're going to stay right here where you belong.

01:03:01Come.

01:03:07I guess I don't have to tell you that I'm grateful for what you did.

01:03:20You've both been very kind.

01:03:22I just want to say that...

01:03:23I'll get it.

01:03:27Johnny, it's for you.

01:03:41For me?

01:03:42Yes.

01:03:49Hello.

01:03:49I'll be right over.

01:03:56Mr. Anderson, can I borrow your truck for a little while, please?

01:03:59Sure, son.

01:04:02It's in the driveway.

01:04:04Thanks.

01:04:04Bye.

01:04:06Bye.

01:04:06Goodbye.

01:04:06Bye.

01:04:07Bye.

01:04:08Bye.

01:04:08THE END

01:04:38Sally!

01:04:59Oh, Sally.

01:05:01Johnny, is everything all right?

01:05:04You mean do I still love you?

01:05:05You know I do.

01:05:06I know, but have you found out who you are?

01:05:09You're Peter Anderson?

01:05:10No, I'm not, but don't make that upset you, honey.

01:05:12It doesn't matter now.

01:05:14It doesn't matter.

01:05:16But it does.

01:05:19Yes.

01:05:20It does matter.

01:05:22It does matter who I am, doesn't it?

01:05:24You said it, bub.

01:05:26You speaking to me?

01:05:27I'm speaking to the guy that was driving that jalopy over every part of the road in which he don't belong.

01:05:32Who cut every curve and disregarded every intersection.

01:05:36You know what the score is.

01:05:38We'll start with your driver's license.

01:05:40Driver's license.

01:05:41I don't have any, at least with me.

01:05:48You're making it swell for yourself, aren't you?

01:05:50Suppose we go see the judge now and you can tell your story to the both of us at the same time.

01:05:54Please, not now.

01:05:55I just got here a couple of minutes ago and came all the way from Connecticut and I...

01:05:59Anything the matter, officer?

01:06:00No, at least nothing I can't handle.

01:06:02Just one of your boys driving without a license and violating every speed law in the book.

01:06:07Where are you from?

01:06:10I don't know.

01:06:11What do you mean you don't know?

01:06:12Let me see your papers.

01:06:14Papers?

01:06:15I haven't any.

01:06:16AWOL, huh?

01:06:17This is getting good.

01:06:20You guys will just keep your shirts on for a couple of minutes.

01:06:22I might be able to explain things.

01:06:24Maybe you won't have to.

01:06:25What's your name?

01:06:26Johnny March.

01:06:28That's what they call me.

01:06:30Uh-huh.

01:06:31I'm sorry, officer, but the Army has first call on this man.

01:06:35We've been looking for you for about a week.

01:06:37Looking for me?

01:06:39March, John.

01:06:41It says here you disappeared off the train on your way to a hospital without having been officially discharged.

01:06:46You better come along with us and talk to the CO.

01:06:48Please, may I come, too?

01:06:50Well, I don't...

01:06:51What I always say, there's a feminine touch that always gums things up good.

01:06:55Sorry, you better take the truck back to the Andersons.

01:06:57It's out in front.

01:06:59Come on.

01:07:00Thanks, officer.

01:07:01Okay.

01:07:07And I didn't think I was actually doing anything wrong, sir.

01:07:10Jumping off your train?

01:07:11Not notifying your commanding officer of your whereabouts for one week?

01:07:14See, I was just trying to establish my identity.

01:07:18That's the Army's job, not yours.

01:07:23Private March, you are AWOL.

01:07:25Until I receive further information regarding you, you will be confined to the guardhouse.

01:07:28Yes.

01:07:29Yes.

01:07:29Mrs. McGregor, I'd like you to meet Major Brown of the Medical Corps.

01:07:34Mrs. McGregor, I'd like you to meet Major Brown of the Medical Corps.

01:07:47How do I do?

01:07:48How do I do?

01:07:49How are you?

01:07:49Major Brown is a psychiatrist.

01:07:50Sit down, won't you?

01:07:56Mrs. McGregor, I'd like you to meet Major Brown of the Medical Corps.

01:08:00How do I do?

01:08:00How are you?

01:08:01Major Brown is a psychiatrist.

01:08:03Sit down, won't you?

01:08:05We sent for you, Mrs. McGregor.

01:08:09You found out who he is?

01:08:10Yes, we know who he is.

01:08:12But before we tell him, we'd like to try to make him find out for himself.

01:08:17It's better if he remembers.

01:08:19We asked you to come in so that when we question him, it won't appear in the nature of a test.

01:08:24Private March is here, sir.

01:08:26Send him in.

01:08:27Yes, sir.

01:08:35At ease.

01:08:36Thanks.

01:08:37Private March, just before you came in, we were having a little discussion.

01:08:40Perhaps you can settle it for us.

01:08:43Do you know the date of the Austrian succession?

01:08:461740.

01:08:47And how about the Council of Nicaea?

01:08:50That was 325 A.D.

01:08:53And do you happen to know just why you remember those dates?

01:08:57Well, after all, I should have.

01:08:59I was a professor of history.

01:09:03Sally, I...

01:09:05Then you do remember who you are?

01:09:08Yes, sir.

01:09:09And your fingerprints verify the report beyond doubt, Captain.

01:09:12Captain?

01:09:13Yes.

01:09:14Captain Aldrich flew his plane in over a farmhouse in which four American soldiers had been trapped,

01:09:19hoping to drop food and supplies to them.

01:09:21Just as he came over, a German dive bomber came in and blew the farmhouse to bits.

01:09:25Just how Captain Aldrich escaped when his plane exploded

01:09:28is more than the authorities can state at this time.

01:09:33Suppose we just check this report.

01:09:34Yes.

01:09:35Name?

01:09:36Charles Aldrich.

01:09:38Age?

01:09:3933.

01:09:41Next of kin.

01:09:42Orphan.

01:09:43Marital status.

01:09:47Single.

01:09:49That's all.

01:09:56Occupation.

01:09:59Occupation.

01:10:00He's a father, a brother, a son, a husband.

01:10:06He's a doctor, a farmer, an architect, a truck driver.

01:10:10He is all men.

01:10:12The principles they believed in and fought for are still living in him.

01:10:16From now on, it's going to be his job to stand for those things.

01:10:20Because when Johnny March came home, they came home too.

01:10:25The End
