00:10They dug trenches, they fortified houses.

00:13They were ready.

00:15We wanted to go.

00:16We were just waiting on the edge of a knife.

00:18When are we gonna get to go?

00:20The order is, seize the city.

00:25RPGs, small arms fire from everywhere.

00:30Let's go, come on, come on.

00:32I told him that I wanted to go and he looked at me and said,

00:35Song, you're gonna die.

00:39The destruction is just horrible.

00:44The hardest thing about fighting this enemy is they're not afraid to die.

01:39You always want to reassure these men that they've done their duty because that memory is seared into their soul.

01:51They never forget it. None of us do.

01:54Foreign policy, I don't make it. I just deliver the last 600 meters of it.

02:06You always want to know everyone.

02:07There's something for them.

02:08I definitely want to know if they're going to be here.

02:09I'm sorry.

02:10I feel like you're loving to the Verdict.

02:14I don't need any of my power too.

02:16I can't see them.

02:17I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

02:18I know that many parts that have caught up in my arms,

02:20I can't see them on their feet,

02:23but they're going to be right now,
