{14455}{14512}All right!|Make way, make way!
{14512}{14598}- I guess the drinks are on me.|- All right!
{14599}{14646}At ease!|Listen up.
{14688}{14779}Ladies and gentlemen,
{14781}{14893}the reason we're all here,|Colonel Hayes Hodges.
{15137}{15264}He's calling it a career after|32 years of distinguished service.
{15354}{15400}All right, all right.
{15427}{15496}Colonel, we got you a gift|and a surprise,
{15496}{15555}so don't act like|you're not coming up here.
{15557}{15615}Speech! Speech! Speech!
{15725}{15773}Speech! Speech!|Speech!
{15974}{16020}Hey, my man!
{16188}{16234}Good to see you.
{16236}{16321}You damn well better be. I came|halfway 'round the world for this.
{16551}{16597}Hey, get up here.
{16716}{16763}Speech!
{16811}{16892}The sword, Colonel.|You know the story, Hayes.
{16894}{16961}Marine Lieutenant Presley O'Banion|defeated the Barbary pirates...
{16963}{17016}on the shores ofTripoli|in 1805.
{17018}{17092}Out of gratitude, the pasha|gave him the Mameluke sword.
{17093}{17154}Marine officers have|carried one ever since.
{17156}{17211}It's the symbol|ofa warrior,
{17213}{17283}and you are a warrior.
{17285}{17371}The best I ever served with.
{17477}{17535}This man's been riding a desk|for the past 28 years,
{17536}{17597}but not because he wanted to.
{17599}{17665}He knows how to fight.|It's in his blood. Ah-ooh!
{17770}{17836}What are you|gonna do now, Colonel?
{17837}{17908}Well, uh... Well.
{17909}{17982}Heh! No more wars to fight,|no more trials to lose.
{18032}{18106}So I expect I'll do|some teaching at V.M.I.
{18108}{18182}I will recon the local restaurants|in a concerted effort...
{18183}{18275}to find out what civilians eat.
{18276}{18350}Of course, I intend to continue|serving my country...
{18352}{18403}by honorably depleting|the trout streams...
{18405}{18475}of the Southern United States|with my fly rod!
{18545}{18591}That's about it.
{18685}{18732}Let's get outta here.
{18846}{18924}- I missed you.|- Yeah, I missed you too.
{18926}{18980}How's the kid,|the smart Hodges?
{18982}{19080}You know, he studies more than|any two people. I never see him.
{19082}{19159}- You gotta fix that.|- Yeah.
{19211}{19268}- Got my orders.|- Oh, yeah? What?
{19269}{19351}Got command of the 24th|Marine Expeditionary Unit.
{19352}{19452}- Special Operations capable.|- Congrats. Huh! Congrats.
{19453}{19500}- Yeah.|- Outstanding.
{19500}{19566}All I gotta do is lash|'em together, take 'em to sea.
{19601}{19655}That's, uh... outstanding.
{19712}{19804}You ain't missin' nothin', Hodge.|It's a whole new ball game.
{19805}{19877}No friends, no enemies,|no front, no rear.
{19879}{19934}No victories, no defeats,|no Mama, no Papa.
{19935}{20010}- Yeah.|- We're orphans out there.
{20012}{20064}It's funny, you know?
{20066}{20129}One guy walks out through a swamp,|he gets to come home to a desk.
{20131}{20187}Another guy drives up a hill|and he gets to still be doin' it,
{20189}{20238}all over the flip|ofa goddamn coin.
{20239}{20286}You know, that's...
{20344}{20415}It's funny.
{20416}{20498}You gave good service|to the corps, Hodge.
{20499}{20594}To think otherwise|would be just plain crazy.
{20595}{20670}- You'd have gotten your command.|- Oh, yeah, sure.
{21465}{21512}What's up, John?
{21513}{21595}Terry, we've been ordered|to the Arabian Sea, Gulf of Aden.
{21597}{21661}This comes straight down Second|Division through General Perry.
{21663}{21709}The American Embassy in Yemen|is surrounded...
{21711}{21747}by a crowd of demonstrators.
{21748}{21782}The crowd isn't hostile,|but it's large enough...
{21784}{21860}to spook their government|into pulling their security forces.
{21862}{21941}Twenty-fourth Marine Expeditionary|Unit's gonna provide extra security.
{21942}{22013}We're gonna baby-sit, Colonel.|Just show our presence.
{22014}{22081}Remember, though, if it turns|hot, we're looking at an evac.
{22082}{22163}We got an ambassador and his family|there. Let me run you through this.
{22164}{22211}Here's your|potential L.Z.S.
{22212}{22286}Marines at the embassy advise we can|gain entrance through the back way.
{22287}{22350}Here's some stairs where you|can deploy your men to the roof.
{22351}{22402}These are your|over-watch positions.
{22403}{22456}I'll take them in|myself quietly.
{22457}{22538}One platoon, TRAP team,|put everyone else on Ready Five.
{22540}{22588}My thoughts exactly,|Colonel.
{24633}{24689}What's wrong, Mommy?
{24691}{24748}The people are upset|about some things, darling.
{24750}{24823}- Are they mad at Daddy?|- No, they're not mad at your daddy.
{24825}{24871}Why are they yelling?
{24873}{24977}They're trying to get attention|so that people will listen to them.
{25683}{25752}Sir, state security analysts|are asking for an assessment.
{25754}{25824}Assessment? We're getting the hell|out of here. That's the assessment.
{25826}{25886}The Sixth Fleet marines|are in the air, sir.
{25888}{25948}If they think I'm gonna|tough this one out, they're crazy.
{25950}{26016}Tell Mrs. Mourain to start packing.|We're going home.
{26017}{26071}Shall I indicate|we're ready to evacuate?
{26073}{26128}Ask them where the hell|are those helicopters!
{26129}{26173}The ambassador wants to know|where the choppers are.
{26175}{26227}You heard me.|Where the hell are the choppers?
{27696}{27749}Lock and load!|Lock and load!
{27750}{27807}Lock and load!|Lock and load!
{29424}{29514}We're gonna|take a betterlookbefore we go in.
{29849}{29940}Wagon Wheel, this is Red Man.|I'm over the embassy.
{29942}{30012}This ain 't no baby-sit.|It's ugly down there.
{30013}{30059}Red Man, Wagon Wheel.
{30060}{30106}Roger that.|Let's go for the evac.
{30107}{30180}Put it on deck.|We're going in the north side.
{31673}{31751}There! Go!
{31815}{31861}- Captain Lee!|- Yes, sir!
{31862}{31937}Nobody comes over those walls|or through those gates. Nobody!
{31939}{32029}One Alpha, secure all entries.|Tango and Bravo, on the walls!
{32031}{32128}- Move, move, move!|- Last man! Last man!
{32166}{32245}Pull back! Pull back!
{32385}{32434}Take cover!
{32565}{32641}You speak English?|- Yes!
{32642}{32728}Where's the ambassador?|He's topside! Go topside!
{32848}{32948}Take that corner!|Take that side! Move!
{33107}{33152}Aah!
{33178}{33238}Move, move, move!|Go, go!
{33275}{33331}Bravo Two, left!|Move, move, move!
{33333}{33402}Incoming sniper fire!|Stay down! Stay down!
{33473}{33526}Two blue, clear!
{33528}{33599}- Who's Mrs. Mourain?|- I'm Mrs. Mourain.
{33601}{33679}- Where's the ambassador?|- He's in there. Are we leaving?
{33681}{33743}The helos are outside, ma'am,|but that's up to the ambassador.
{33745}{33799}Stay away from|the windows, please.
{33837}{33883}Duck! Ow!
{33885}{33959}Aah! Colonel! Please!
{34011}{34096}My God! Are the helicopters here?|What kept you people so long?
{34098}{34172}We're ready to evacuate, unless you|want to stay and run the embassy.
{34174}{34248}I want to go right... now!|We called hours ago!
{34250}{34324}All right, sir, come to me.|Stay calm and come to me.
{34325}{34457}- Stay calm. Come to me. Stay low.|- We're like targets!
{34459}{34521}- We're sitting targets!|- Follow Sergeant Mac. Go!
{34652}{34731}Come on! Down there!|Down there! Right there!
{34843}{34908}Right there!|Down there! Down there!

{35669}{35724}- What's your name, son? Justin?|-Justin.
{35726}{35793}Come on, Justin! Come on!
{35795}{35855}- Justin, what's that you got there?|- A flashlight.
{35857}{35924}We're gonna ride in a helicopter.|Wanna bring that with you?
{35926}{36016}- Huh? Come on. Come on!|- Mommy!
{36018}{36083}Let's go, ma'am, go!|Go, go, go!
{36184}{36250}All TRAP Unit six,|stay low, stay low!
{36252}{36324}We got crap coming over the walls|and sniper fire at 100 meters. Over.
{36326}{36407}Stay low! Sit tight,|sit tight, sit tight!
{36689}{36760}Colonel, we got three marines hit!|One is K.I.A.
{36761}{36824}One Alpha says they're gonna|try to breach the front gate!
{36826}{36880}- Tell them to wait out!|- Roger that!
{37076}{37214}Put the missus on board|first. Get in there, Mr. Ambassador.
{37215}{37294}I'll personally recommend you...|Where's the belt?
{37295}{37378}- I'll personally recommend...|- Hold it!
{37379}{37499}Where are you going? What? Colonel!|Colonel, we can't wait here!
{37501}{37577}Come on! Let's get out!|Come on!
{37726}{37766}Let's go! Christ!
{37768}{37791}We're leaving|in just a few seconds.

{37909}{37990}- Sir, please! Look at me. Stay calm.|- Let's go!
{38737}{38793}She's free, sir!|Go!
{39004}{39066}Hope you know how|to fold this, sir.
{39067}{39123}Thank you, Colonel.|I'll never forget this.
{39124}{39192}Sir.
{39313}{39360}Go!
{40434}{40562}Krasevitch is hit!
{40615}{40724}Corpsman! Corpsman!|Shit!
{40726}{40792}Goddamn it!
{40794}{40840}Fuck!
{40981}{41027}Six, Red Man.
{41029}{41075}Engage hostile targets|as they appear.
{41077}{41160}Deadly force is authorized.|How copy? Over.
{41162}{41224}Red Man, Trans Six Actual.|Negative, negative!
{41226}{41291}Be advised, I have women|and children in my line of fire.
{41292}{41360}I got snipers in the buildings|at 400 meters. How copy? Over.
{41362}{41460}What is it about this order|you don't understand, Captain Lee?
{41461}{41532}Sir, are you ordering me|to fire into the crowd? Over.
{41532}{41597}Yes, goddamn it!|Waste the motherfuckers!
{41599}{41669}Six out.|Engage! Engage!
{41671}{41753}Open fire!
{42226}{42313}Cease fire!
{42314}{42365}Cease fire!
{42367}{42417}Cease fire!
{42419}{42485}Stay down! There may still be|snipers out there.
{42487}{42537}Cease fire!
{42539}{42629}- Cease fire, goddamn it!|- Everybody stay down!
{42631}{42742}There may still be snipers|out there. Stay down!
{42743}{42790}Get down!
{44147}{44194}- Sergeant Mac.|- Sir?
{44195}{44275}Contact all stations.|Mission complete.
{44277}{44379}Launch medevacs.|Dead and wounded out first.
{44381}{44427}Aye, Colonel.
{44429}{44540}All stations, this is RedMan.|Mission complete.
{44542}{44631}Move all medevacs to L.Z.|Howcopy? Over.
{45031}{45066}The FBI. investigation shows...
{45068}{45125}that all the bullet holes|in the embassy wall...
{45126}{45199}came from directly across|the way, from the snipers.
{45201}{45276}Any weapons or ammo found|among the dead or wounded?
{45278}{45365}No, sir. Nothing.|However, intelligence suggests...
{45367}{45425}this could have been|a terrorist operation.
{45426}{45473}Any proof?
{45474}{45553}This is a tape from|the embassy security system.
{45555}{45614}- Want me to thread it up?|- No. I don't want to watch videos.
{45616}{45673}I don't want to hear about|ammo casings in some building,
{45675}{45757}'cause here I got|83 dead people...
{45758}{45827}unarmed...|women, children, old men.
{45829}{45880}Another hundred or so|critically wounded.
{45882}{45987}Here I got an international|crisis of mega fucking proportions!
{45989}{46035}Bill, you know there have been|regular reports...
{46037}{46090}of a terrorist|plot against this embassy.
{46091}{46171}This was a regularly scheduled|protest. It was every week.
{46172}{46254}It was the usual bullshit about|American presence in the gulf.
{46255}{46351}Have you looked at these?|I mean, I'm just assuming you have,
{46352}{46443}since they're on the front page|of every newspaper in the world.
{46445}{46512}It's not that the rest of the|world wants to hold us responsible,
{46514}{46560}we are responsible!
{46607}{46674}We can't even have|the appearance of a cover-up.
{46675}{46748}That does not excuse us|from our duty, Mr. Sokal.
{46750}{46869}We sent Colonel Childers in there,|and the mission went to shit.
{46871}{46930}We can't go after the man|who carried out his orders...
{46932}{46988}and ignore the people|who issued those orders.
{46990}{47036}Childers ordered the slaughter...
{47038}{47094}of innocent women and children.|Get that straight right now.
{47096}{47128}I'll tell you|what we ought to get straight.
{47130}{47174}We lost three|United States Marines.
{47175}{47240}They lost 83!
{47242}{47315}Now, are we gonna go to war|with Yemen over it?
{47316}{47407}We're covering our ass all over|the Middle East right now, General.
{47408}{47470}Because of your man's|hot headed miscalculation,
{47471}{47573}we are in danger of losing embassies|in Saudi, Jordan and Egypt.
{47575}{47640}We're in danger|of losing our presence...
{47642}{47710}with every moderate|in the region.
{47712}{47766}Now they're gonna scream|"cover up".
{47768}{47846}The screaming will get so loud we'll|be sending Marines back over there,
{47847}{47928}and the body count of American|dead is gonna be higher than three.
{47972}{48061}I see where you're going|with this, Mr. Sokal.
{48063}{48117}Will you be needing me|anymore today?
{48151}{48199}No.
{48201}{48257}No, that's fine, General.|Thankyou.
{48258}{48309}Good day to you, sir.
{48626}{48706}Where do you think|you're going with that?
{48708}{48828}- You don't want to look at it.|- Nobody's lookin' at it.
{48830}{48888}Why should the United States|be held responsible...
{48889}{48982}for the actions of one man?
{48984}{49041}What if the crowd|had weapons?
{49043}{49103}What if this shows|they did fire first?
{49105}{49180}He could have fired over|their heads, this moron!
{49182}{49245}Didn't he know where he was?|The Middle East!
{49246}{49287}He could have isolated|on the snipers.
{49289}{49325}He could have|avoided confrontation.
{49327}{49382}He could have done|50 fuckin' things!
{49384}{49439}Instead, he destroyed a fragile|trust, put his own men in danger...
{49441}{49525}Fuck this guy!|Forget this tape.
{49526}{49621}I don't want to watch it.|I don't want to testify about it.
{49678}{49725}I don't want it to exist.
{50017}{50067}Good morning, sir.
{50096}{50143}Good morning, sir.
{50210}{50256}Aye, aye, sir.
{50258}{50340}As soon as it's time.
{50428}{50519}General, Colonel Childers|reporting as ordered, sir.
{50520}{50570}- Give us a minute, Skip.|- Yes, sir.
{50675}{50794}Colonel, it's my duty to inform|you that you've been charged with...
{50840}{50935}You know the drill.
{51020}{51066}This is the Article 32|investigation.
{51068}{51117}You're facing|a general court-martial...
{51119}{51186}and charged with violation|ofat least three articles...
{51188}{51249}everything from "breach of peace"|to "conduct unbecoming".
{51251}{51392}But the bottom line... 83 counts,|violation of Article 118, murder.
{51393}{51440}You issued an illegal order|to have your marines...
{51441}{51519}fire into a group|of innocent civilians.
{51521}{51578}Murder, sir?
{51673}{51762}I'm the convening authority, so I've|gotta get this B.S. out of the way.
{51824}{51891}Sign here, initial here.
{51985}{52094}You're not a flight risk, so there|won't be any pretrial confinement.
{52192}{52251}This court-martial convenes|in eight days...
{52252}{52372}by direct order of|the national command authority.
{52373}{52454}Do you want me to call|Bob Bennett or one of those guys,
{52456}{52514}or do you want to go|with base legal?
{52576}{52682}Terry, goddamn it,|we've been friends for20years.
{52774}{52850}You want to tell me exactly|what the hell happened out there?
{52899}{53013}I lost marines. The crowd|was hostile. They fired on us.
{53015}{53099}They fired first, sir.
{53100}{53170}I want you to know|I did everything in the world...
{53172}{53216}to keep this from happening.
{53216}{53283}It's just out|of my hands now.
{53569}{53616}Thanks a lot.
{53617}{53681}When's the last time you|actually caught something here?
{53713}{53780}Two years.
{53894}{53972}- I really need your help.|- I'll help. Anything you need.
{53973}{54030}You want me to take the stand?|I'll be a character witness.
{54032}{54085}No, you don't understand|what I'm asking.
{54111}{54183}I want you|to be my lawyer.
{54277}{54363}I'm a good enough lawyer to know|you need a better lawyer than me.
{54364}{54410}'Sides that, I'm short.
{54412}{54446}Two-nine plus one wake-up,|and I'm gone.
{54448}{54499}You need one of those|Washington cats.
{54500}{54599}I don't want some Starbucks|drinker who's never seen combat.
{54600}{54678}- I need somebody who's been shot at.|- Yeah, I've been shot at.
{54680}{54756}That's what I am...|a shot-up marine.
{54758}{54845}As a matter of fact,|that's all the hell I am.
{54847}{54910}No, wait a minute.|I'm also a weak lawyer.
{54936}{55011}I'm a very weak lawyer...
{55012}{55124}and the government is gonna come|at you with everything they've got.
{55347}{55420}Major, Bill Sokal. It's a pleasure|to meet you. Come on in.
{55421}{55468}Let me introduce you.
{55469}{55516}Gentlemen, this|is Major Mark Biggs.
{55517}{55569}He'll be prosecuting|the Childers court-martial.
{55570}{55628}The marines put the major|through Stanford Law,
{55630}{55713}and he owes them a couple of years|before he takes over the world.
{55715}{55761}You know General Lowry.
{55763}{55813}I'd like you to meet the general|of the Joint Chiefs of Staff,
{55815}{55884}General West, and the secretary|of Defense, Mr. Wyatt.
{55885}{55932}Have a seat.|Make yourself comfortable.
{55932}{56024}What I gather from our esteemed NSC|advisor and secretary of state...
{56026}{56078}is that we've got a trial|in two weeks.
{56080}{56159}- Seems awfully damned fast.|- Everyone in this room will agree...
{56161}{56226}it's in the national interest that|this trial be moved along quickly.
{56228}{56319}The Article 32 investigation|was complete and comprehensive.
{56321}{56362}It all seems to point|in one direction.
{56364}{56397}Has he got a lawyer yet?
{56399}{56469}He's requested a military|attorney, Colonel Hayes Hodges.
{56470}{56536}Second Marine Division, Lejeune.
{56538}{56579}Any relation to|General H. Lawrence Hodges?
{56580}{56608}His son.
{56609}{56673}Larry Hodges was one of this country's|most distinguished officers.
{56675}{56727}What do we know about|Colonel Hayes Hodges?
{56728}{56786}He's a guy who got|blown apart in Vietnam,
{56788}{56853}then went to Georgetown Law|and became a cynic.
{56854}{56901}Is that about right, Major?
{56902}{56953}He was 67th in his class|at Georgetown, sir.
{56955}{57023}He doesn't take too many cases,|doesn't win too many.
{57025}{57091}He apparently went through an ugly|divorce, had a drinking problem,
{57093}{57202}retiring in two weeks.|- Can we guarantee we get this guy?
{57204}{57265}Sir, if I may|say something?
{57292}{57342}I am not a hired gun.
{57344}{57379}I accepted this assignment...
{57380}{57437}'cause I believe in the merits|ofthe government's case.
{57438}{57491}I am not gonna stack the deck|against this guy.
{57493}{57561}I will try this case|on good evidence only.
{57563}{57618}I'm glad to hear it.
{58439}{58511}Hold your fire.
{58513}{58590}Set that weapon down over here.
{58667}{58757}We need|a couple of canteens up here.
{58903}{58965}Party incoming!|- You can go.
{58967}{59039}You can go, goddamn it!|Go on! Dee dee!
{59041}{59123}Get the fuck out of here|before I change my mind!
{59239}{59303}Looks like you're going back|to the world, baby.
{59304}{59405}- Doc!|- Twenty meters out. Left!
{59406}{59487}- Right there.|- Anybody else?
{59975}{60022}I got you now!
{60060}{60106}- Hey, buddy!|- Hi, Mom.
{60156}{60202}He looks fabulous.
{60204}{60249}- Happy anniversary, Mom.|- Oh, thank you. So good to see you.
{60250}{60285}I wasn't sure you'd make it.
{60287}{60334}- You look wonderful.|- Thank you.
{60335}{60397}- How's it feel to be retired?|- Um, crazy.
{60399}{60437}Good. Oh, you look great.
{60438}{60472}- Thank you.|- Well, come see Dad...
{60473}{60527}- There he is.|...and all the family.
{60529}{60589}Hello, sir.
{60591}{60649}- Glad you could make it.|- Yes, sir.
{60785}{60863}Good to see you, Hayes.|- How are you doing?
{60865}{60946}Hey, kid. Hey, you.|Remember me?
{60948}{61016}- The old guy who looks like you.|- Do I know you?
{61018}{61077}- Yeah.|- Your voice sounds really familiar.
{61079}{61140}Here's a clue. I was married|to your mom for about five minutes.
{61142}{61216}- Really? You sure? 'Cause I don't...|- Yeah.
{61324}{61398}- Well, is he guilty?|- Sir?
{61400}{61459}Your friend|Colonel Childers.
{61460}{61538}- Guilty of what, sir?|- Come on, Hayes.
{61540}{61627}You served with him. Is he the rabid|dog we've all been hearing about?
{61629}{61671}I don't think|I should comment, sir.
{61672}{61746}Come on, Dad. This is family.|You can lighten up a little.
{61748}{61794}You know what we said|at the naval academy.
{61796}{61866}Even if you thought|you weren't responsible,
{61867}{61926}it went wrong|and you were there.
{61927}{61970}Since when have you|not had a comment?
{61972}{62014}Since Childers asked me|to defend him.
{62016}{62059}No. Oh, Hayes.
{62060}{62118}- What?|- Excuse me.
{62120}{62175}- Are you kidding me?|- No.
{62176}{62253}Why would you do that?|Huh!
{62254}{62321}- Because he asked me, and I owe him.|- That's great.
{62323}{62406}That represents everything|that's wrong with the military.
{62407}{62454}Wisdom from the one person|in this family...
{62455}{62532}who has not elected|to serve his country.
{62533}{62580}Childers must have snapped.|It happens in combat.
{62581}{62655}I've seen it.|I'm sure you have too.
{62657}{62703}Thank you for reminding me...
{62705}{62772}why we have the presumption|of innocence in America.
{62773}{62843}What are you, Abraham|Lincoln? You can't hide behind that.
{62845}{62890}The guy murdered innocent women|and children.
{62892}{62941}- You hear that on television?|- And newspapers.
{62943}{63004}- It's all over the place.|- It's Mom and Dad's anniversary.
{63207}{63258}Don't take this case, son.
{63260}{63326}This man has trashed|the reputation of the Corps.
{63328}{63376}He's put us back 20 years.
{63473}{63532}Is this how you want|to be remembered?
{63534}{63598}I don't see how I can|turn him down. He saved my life.
{63600}{63670}Well, I understand that|as well as anyone.
{63671}{63790}But you don't repay him by|falling senselessly on a grenade.
{63791}{63864}The way I see it,|this man should find himself...
{63866}{63965}the best laywer in the country.|- Somebody better than me?
{64026}{64076}The guy's|a real marine, Dad.
{64078}{64143}I mean, if they|can do this to him...
{64144}{64224}just hang him out to dry...|they can do it to anybody.
{64226}{64322}Forget that he's my friend.|They can do it to anybody.
{64324}{64384}That means your medals|and your citations...
{64385}{64456}won't mean jack shit|when they come afte ryou.
{64614}{64668}At least two of his own guys|are gonna testify...
{64669}{64736}that he didn't have|to open fire, sir.
{64738}{64832}Nobody reports seeing any|weapons among the demonstrators.
{64834}{64910}- His psych eval was a disaster.|- What about embassy footage?
{64912}{64970}Cameras, film, videotape,|home movies, shit like that?
{64972}{65094}No, I've subpoenaed everything.|The embassy got hit pretty good.
{65096}{65177}Most of it was destroyed.
{65281}{65339}Terry, you know Tom Chandler.|He's gonna help us prepare your case.
{65341}{65429}Colonel Childers, good to see|you again, sir. Um, all right.
{65431}{65524}First, we've subpoenaed all|the Article 32 investigator's notes,
{65526}{65572}the State Department's|notes on Yemen.
{65574}{65657}Major Biggs has already had|your head checked by their doctor.
{65659}{65702}I've got you an appointment|with ours.
{65704}{65753}- No.|- What?
{65754}{65826}No more multiple choice|questions about self-esteem.
{65827}{65892}We got the combat fitness reports.|He can forget the psych eval here.
{65894}{65934}That's a mistake, Colonel.
{65936}{66025}Listen, when I turned 18|I joined the Marine Corps.
{66027}{66074}I asked to be in the infantry.
{66076}{66134}- I asked to go to Vietnam.|- Terry.
{66135}{66189}I live for the privilege|of commanding troops.
{66191}{66251}I think it's the greatest honor|an American can have.
{66253}{66316}You know how many birthdays|and Christmases I missed,
{66318}{66364}spent rotting in jungles|or in the desert,
{66366}{66412}just so you could play|war at ROTC?
{66414}{66520}Childers! You gotta keep|your shit together here, man.
{66521}{66580}Your court-martial board|is gonna be made up of people...
{66582}{66640}who might've spent one day in|Grenada, maybe two days in Kuwait.
{66642}{66700}They're gonna be beach boys who've|never been anywhere near combat.
{66702}{66741}They're gonna be people|like Tom Chandler...
{66743}{66784}sitting right here in front of you.
{66786}{66859}That's who you're|making your case to.
{66860}{66955}We don't have anybody|to back up your case.
{66956}{67029}That's because|all my witnesses are dead.
{67071}{67151}- Okay. So what happened?|- He lost it. He snapped.
{67153}{67196}That's good.|We can snap him on the stand.
{67198}{67237}This doesn't happen in a vacuum.
{67239}{67297}Let's get a complete history|of Colonel Childers.
{67298}{67360}Talk to every marine|he ever served with.
{67362}{67408}My guess is|this has happened before.
{67409}{67462}We have to be careful here.
{67464}{67518}This guy is|the warrior's warrior.
{67520}{67653}A Navy Cross, two Silver Stars|for composure in battle.
{67655}{67727}He has no wife, no kids,|just the Corps.
{67729}{67833}He was our best.|That's why he was sent.
{67834}{67887}He's not on trial for the|good service he gave the country,
{67889}{67948}but for what he did|on the wallin Yemen, period.
{67949}{67995}Major, nobody wants to say it,
{67997}{68069}but it occurs to me we're trying|to set an example here.
{68070}{68139}So let's set it and show|the world we mean business.
{68141}{68247}The first charge supports the death|penalty, and I say we go for it.
{68248}{68292}No more death.
{68293}{68358}I'll see that he never gets another|command and I'll put him in jail,
{68359}{68446}but I will not seek death for a man|who served his country honorably.
{68448}{68503}I don't want it|brought up again.
{68504}{68581}We gotta show|Childers' state of mind.
{68582}{68631}We gotta prove he went out|with intent to kill,
{68633}{68687}and that is not going to be easy.
{68688}{68751}Whether a man is charged|with murder or hailed as a hero...
{68753}{68817}is sometimes a very thin line.
{68818}{68918}Our case is this. Childers receives|orders that a regularly scheduled,
{68919}{69007}I awful protest outside|our embassy in Yemen is unruly.
{69009}{69078}He is to secure|or evacuate the premises.
{69079}{69145}There has been no violence|prior to his arrival.
{69147}{69182}Once there, Ambassador Mourain...
{69184}{69247}does not feel the situation|warrants evacuation.
{69249}{69305}- Childers ignores him.|- There was sniper fire.
{69307}{69380}They draw fire from snipers|across the street.
{69382}{69466}Childers retaliates into an unarmed|crowd in front of the embassy.
{69468}{69563}A crowd of women and children.|He shot the wrong people.
{69602}{69660}All right, here's what this means.
{69661}{69723}Murder... Obviously, he could get|up to the death penalty.
{69724}{69762}Conduct unbecoming an officer.
{69763}{69830}Max is dismissal|with a dishonorable discharge,
{69831}{69923}for feature of all pay and allowances|and confinement for one year.
{69925}{69974}What about breach|of peace? What is that?
{69975}{70025}Breaching the peace is minor.
{70027}{70104}That means participating in an act|of violent or turbulent nature...
{70105}{70182}that deprives the community of the|peace and tranquility it deserves.
{70183}{70261}It's sort of the military equivalent|of the civilian misdemeanor.
{70262}{70321}No big deal.
{70352}{70428}There he is!|You goddamn baby killer!
{70429}{70476}Baby killer!
{70511}{70558}You're disgusting!
{70559}{70637}I'm not answering any questions,|all right? Get out of here. Go away.
{70639}{70718}You fucking baby killer!
{70720}{70775}Fuck  you!
{70822}{70892}Who the fuck are you|to spit on this uniform? Huh?
{71287}{71331}You ever play blackjack, Colonel?
{71333}{71411}Not really.
{71446}{71546}There are no intangibles.|It's all odds, sir.
{71548}{71619}You know them, you'll beat|the guy next to you.
{71620}{71678}You know what cards have been|played, you'll beat the house.
{71735}{71823}Sometimes you just can't win|no matter what you do.
{71862}{71955}I saw your man on television|knockin' some zit-faced kid around.
{71957}{72008}You have to understand the kind of|pressure Childers has been under.
{72010}{72079}A man with that kind of service...|No, no thanks.
{72081}{72156}This was a rescue mission|that went bad. Nothing more.
{72157}{72216}You're aware, Colonel,|we could ask for the death penalty.
{72218}{72252}You're not serious.
{72253}{72316}Oh, I'm very serious.|In fact, it's been suggested.
{72318}{72399}What do you think would happen|ifa Yemeni killed 83 Americans?
{72401}{72444}He'd have a trial|that would last for one day,
{72445}{72476}and they'd take off his head.
{72478}{72524}Have a seat, Colonel.
{72558}{72604}Please.
{72743}{72788}So here it is.|You plead him out. Guilty.
{72790}{72831}He throws himself at the mercy.
{72832}{72900}- We'll help him out at sentencing.|- How much help?
{72902}{72962}I'm not about to promise you|anything, but I'd say...
{72964}{73036}in the neighborhood of ten|to fifteen, out in seven.
{73038}{73065}Major,
{73067}{73139}do you know what the life expectancy|was for a second lieutenant...
{73140}{73218}dropped into a combat zone|in Vietnam in 1968?
{73220}{73279}I don't have time|for 20 questions, sir.
{73280}{73344}Then what's all this shit about|the odds of winning at blackjack?
{73346}{73462}You got time.|Take a guess.
{73463}{73542}My guess is your man's going down|'cause he deserves to go down.
{73589}{73696}I got a question for you, Colonel.|What happened at Ca Lu?
{73698}{73780}The battle of Ca Lu,|Vietnam.
{73781}{73861}You were there with Childers.|Something happened. What was it?
{73863}{73953}Fuck you is what happened|at Ca Lu, Biggs.
{73979}{74025}Two weeks.
{74027}{74061}Life expectancy of|a second lieutenant...
{74062}{74123}in combat in Vietnam|was two weeks.
{74124}{74158}Sir, I need more time|to prepare this case.
{74160}{74213}I need your permission|to go to Yemen...
{74215}{74301}It's all here, Hodge. We did an|exhaustive Article 32 investigation.
{74302}{74364}This thing happened|3,000 miles away. I need more time.
{74365}{74406}Colonel, it's all here.
{74408}{74460}We had it brought from Yemen,|and it's not unusual to convene...
{74461}{74508}a court-martial|on short notice.
{74510}{74596}There could be witnesses, something|the investigators overlooked, sir.
{74598}{74669}Don't you think Colonel Childers|is entitled all consideration?
{74670}{74764}Colonel Hodges, I don't care|ifyougo to China.
{74765}{74812}We have our marching orders,|and this court-martial...
{74814}{74859}will convene|at 0900 a week Monday.
{74861}{74935}- Now, is that clear?|- Yes, sir.
{75018}{75082}One! Two!
{75315}{75422}...contact the sergeant?|- He's off-base, sir.
{75666}{75712}Terry?
{76042}{76088}Terry?
{76227}{76274}Childers?
{76406}{76456}Ohh.
{76458}{76504}Oh, shit.
{76579}{76632}It's okay.
{76634}{76680}It's okay.
{76682}{76737}- I wasn't...|- No, no. I know.
{76770}{76864}It's okay. It's all right.|I know. Believe me, I know.
{76901}{76992}Can I leave you alone|with that thing in the house?
{76994}{77041}Yeah. I ain't goin' six|on you, Hodge.
{77043}{77065}I'm goin' to Yemen.
{77067}{77122}If I have to stick your ass|in a hospital till I get back,
{77123}{77221}that is what I will do.|- You don't have to do that.
{77222}{77273}Got your word on that?
{77299}{77346}Oh, shit.
{77347}{77411}They take my uniform away,|they may as well shoot me.
{77413}{77513}You can live with it, bud.|Believe me.
{77543}{77620}I'm not gonna shit you.|They offered us a deal.
{77621}{77723}You plead guilty, it's|ten to fifteen. You're out in seven.
{77724}{77817}- What do you think?|- I think they're out to crucify you.
{77819}{77928}For a whole lot of reasons,|I say we take it and call it a day.
{78213}{78295}I did what they|asked me to do, Hodge.
{78296}{78378}I lost marines over there.
{78526}{78591}If I'm guilty of this,
{78592}{78712}I'm guilty of everything I've done|in combat for the last 30 years.
{78824}{78871}I don't know.
{79896}{79973}Colonel Hodges?|Captain Hustings.
{79975}{80043}I'm not in uniform and I'm not|saluting because of the snipers.
{80044}{80108}Please know that I'm saluting|on the inside.
{80110}{80168}I've got some Kevlar back there|with your name on it.
{80169}{80236}We're not the most popular team|in town right now, sir.
{80236}{80280}Hustings, are you a wiseass?
{80282}{80351}My mother prefers to|think of me as glib, sir.
{80352}{80473}Very well then. You will most glibly|belay all bullshit and drive on.
{80475}{80535}Roger that, sir.
{81047}{81135}I've lined up some people who were|at the scene, as you requested, sir.
{81137}{81191}- We can start tomorrow.|- Good.
{81192}{81265}- All right. Here we are.|- Oh. 07:00.
{81266}{81313}Roger that, sir.
{81796}{81874}The old embassy was|a fifth century palace.
{81875}{81902}Got pretty shot up.
{81904}{81947}We're moving the newone|to a bunker outside the city...
{81948}{82045}behind about a mile|of barbed wire, sir.
{82195}{82248}- You want me to come with you, sir?|- Negative.
{82249}{82320}Stay with the vehicle.|Meet me at the hotel.
{82320}{82367}Yes, sir.
{89060}{89152}Armed American marines,|they were shooting at his people.
{89154}{89212}They were just trying|to defend themselves.
{89214}{89287}Is he saying|the marines shot first?
{89415}{89480}Why were your police officers|ordered to abandon the embassy...
{89482}{89529}on the day of the riot?
{89738}{89819}It was a peaceful demonstration.|There was no reason to stay.
{89821}{89888}After the killing, were|any weapons found in the crowd?
{90097}{90199}No. They picked up everything|that was left. No weapons.
{90784}{90830}Hey!
{90962}{91026}No, look. Now, wait.|Wait a minute.
{91028}{91104}Wait a minute, fellas.
{91230}{91292}Hey. Hey!
{93903}{93980}Hi. What's your name?
{93982}{94028}Do you speak English?
{94030}{94076}You're a very pretty girl.
{94078}{94115}Katchi!
{94116}{94182}Is that your name? "Katchi"?
{94183}{94240}- May I help you?|- Yeah.
{94307}{94369}I was wondering|what happened to her?
{94371}{94467}She lost her leg.|Who are you?
{94468}{94557}I'm a lawyer with the United States|Marine Corps. What happened?
{94559}{94612}- A marine lawyer?|- Yeah.
{94612}{94666}Follow me, please.
{95364}{95447}There are hospitals like this|all over the city.
{95534}{95619}Most of the people here|will die.
{97756}{97844}Sir? Do you want|something to drink?
{98294}{98341}Give me another one!
{98386}{98439}Open the goddamn door!
{98763}{98809}What's wrong with you?
{98811}{98867}Get yourself a new lawyer,|you son of a bitch. You lied to me.
{98869}{98923}I could not find|one goddamn witness.
{98924}{98991}I couldn't find|one goddamn shred of evidence!
{98992}{99045}Not for our side|anyway!
{99047}{99100}You clearly opened up|on those people. What were they?
{99102}{99191}Rag heads, camel jockeys|or fucking gooks?
{99193}{99242}- You through?|- Yeah.
{99318}{99364}Get up.
{99365}{99447}Come on. Get up. Come on.
{99547}{99601}Look at you.|You went all the way to Yemen.
{99603}{99655}All you proved is|you're still a drunk.
{99657}{99723}You know what your problem is? You|never measured up to your old man.
{99725}{99813}But I can't help you with that.
{101325}{101406}Stop this shit|before somebody gets hurt.
{102210}{102301}I lost every one|of my men at Ca Lu.
{102302}{102369}And I'll tell you|the first thing I felt.
{102370}{102449}Joy.
{102451}{102542}Elation.|Gladto be alive.
{102543}{102649}I was glad it wasn't me, and|I fucking hate myself for that.
{102834}{102911}That wasn't your fault.
{102948}{103001}We're in deep shit, bud.
{103002}{103054}Yeah.
{103169}{103228}It's fourth and 40, Hodge.
{103272}{103337}I need a Hail Mary.
{103339}{103403}How?
{104034}{104092}Send him in.
{104404}{104472}I just want to make sure|we're on the same page here.
{104473}{104539}- Off the record.|- Of course, Bill.
{104540}{104654}Now, you didn't see any weapons|in that crowd, did you?
{104656}{104719}Well...
{104721}{104780}There was some shooting,|but I...
{104781}{104872}couldn't be sure exactly|where it was coming from.
{104873}{104956}Now, see, that's|gonna be a problem,
{104958}{105040}because we can't get on the stand|and waffle about the charges.
{105042}{105088}Waffle, Bill?
{105090}{105176}In your mind, Childers|was responsible, wasn't he?
{105177}{105244}I wasn't exactly there.|I had already evacuated.
{105245}{105294}You have to remember|he saved my life and my family.
{105296}{105328}This all happened after...
{105330}{105362}Does that mean the United States...
{105364}{105418}is gonna have to take the fall|for what he did?
{105419}{105508}I don't understand.
{105510}{105584}The investigating team didn't|find any weapons in the crowd.
{105586}{105641}That's because they weren't|there until the following day.
{105643}{105702}The Yemeni government|cleaned up the scene,
{105703}{105767}but unfortunately that's|not something we can prove.
{105769}{105833}Nor can I testify about it.|It all happened afterward.
{105835}{105899}Yeah, but you can testify|about Childers' frame of mind,
{105900}{105964}his behavior|while you were there.
{105992}{106075}He saved my life.
{106078}{106141}Surely this will all come down|to what the tape shows.
{106142}{106198}The tape's inconclusive.
{106235}{106332}Hodges subpoenaed it,|of course, but, uh...
{106334}{106389}it was a faulty recording.
{106448}{106502}- I see.|- Do you?
{106504}{106611}If Childers isn't held|totally responsible,
{106613}{106682}then the United States|will be.
{106683}{106749}And just guess...
{106751}{106803}where the finger...
{106805}{106857}is eventually gonna point.
{106890}{106945}- Me?|- Where else?
{106995}{107059}You should've known|this was gonna erupt.
{107061}{107132}And if you didn't,|you were asleep at the wheel.
{107134}{107223}Either way, your conduct|was inexcusable.
{107225}{107315}Now, do you want to face a|congressional inquiry over this,
{107317}{107366}put your career at risk?
{107407}{107470}Think about it.
{107472}{107528}Thank you, Bill.
{109160}{109207}All rise.
{109401}{109447}Be seated.
{109527}{109579}Look closely|at this picture.
{109629}{109679}Why did a well-trained|fighting unit...
{109681}{109761}have to slaughter unarmed|men, women and children...
{109762}{109818}when their orders|were simply to protect...
{109820}{109896}and if necessary,|evacuate the embassy?
{109930}{109981}The answer is,|they didn't.
{109982}{110073}They were ordered to open fire,|and that order came from one man...
{110075}{110128}Colonel Terry Childers,
{110130}{110197}who stands trial|here today,
{110199}{110266}a day of sadness,
{110268}{110343}a day when America has|to accept responsibility...
{110344}{110449}for its failures and its|mistakes as well as its glories.
{110514}{110613}We will show you that the accused,|through his mind-set and actions,
{110614}{110672}ignored the rules|of engagement...
{110673}{110738}and went far beyond|the scope of his authority...
{110739}{110790}to intentionally order|the murder...
{110791}{110876}of 83 innocent people.
{111072}{111183}I was the last one to enter the|courtroom this morning. I was late.
{111184}{111260}I was late because|I was in the head.
{111261}{111356}And I was in the head|because... I was throwing up.
{111405}{111464}And I was throwing up|because I don't know if I'm...
{111466}{111556}able to handle this job.
{111656}{111785}I believe that Colonel Childers|is innocent of these charges.
{111786}{111853}I just don't know if I have what|it takes to make his case for him.
{111854}{111940}I'm simply not on the same page|as Major Briggs, uh...
{111941}{112041}Major Biggs here,|as a lawyer.
{112042}{112121}We all know that.
{112123}{112181}So why did I take|this job?
{112314}{112394}I took this case because|Terry Childers told me...
{112396}{112499}I would have done the same thing|he did if I'd been in his shoes.
{112500}{112581}I took the case because I know Terry|Childers. His word is his bond.
{112582}{112683}He told me he did|what he had to do.
{112684}{112758}Now, I hope|I don't let him down.
{112833}{112929}We sent Terry Childers out|on a very tough mission.
{112931}{112991}And when it went bad,
{112992}{113084}and he did everything he could|to save the lives of his marines,
{113086}{113165}save the lives|of the embassy people,
{113166}{113261}you turn around now and want|to blame the whole mess on him,
{113305}{113375}send him to prison possibly|for the rest of his life.
{113415}{113491}That's not fair.
{113493}{113550}It's not right.
{113593}{113685}It is what made me sick|this morning.
{113687}{113733}It was a large crowd.
{113735}{113832}There was a lot of commotion.|The noise was very unsettling.
{113833}{113887}But it was|a peaceful crowd.
{113889}{113952}That is, until Colonel Childers|arrived and prevented me...
{113954}{114011}from pursuing|further avenues of diplomacy.
{114013}{114071}Did Colonel Childers|force you to leave the embassy?
{114072}{114121}Yes. He charged in.
{114122}{114200}He... started|pushing us around.
{114202}{114278}He physically restrained me|from doing my job.
{114280}{114328}What was his state|of mind at this time?
{114330}{114370}He was in a fury.
{114372}{114423}He was disrespectful|to me and my family.
{114424}{114463}Oh, that's bullshit.
{114464}{114534}It was almost, how should I say,|a murderous rage.
{114536}{114582}Do you remember what he said?
{114584}{114632}I remember he said|something like...
{114633}{114695}diplomacy is bullshit|at this point...
{114697}{114784}"and that ""nobody fucks|with the American flag""."
{114786}{114844}- Those were his words.|- Thank you, Ambassador.
{114845}{114892}No further questions.
{114893}{114956}Do you believe...
{114958}{115001}that an American embassy|on foreign soil...
{115003}{115046}is sovereign|United States territory?
{115047}{115094}As a general principle, yes.
{115096}{115137}Do you believe Americans|have a right...
{115139}{115177}to defend that territory|if it's attacked?
{115179}{115225}If it is, in fact,|attacked.
{115227}{115301}Would you have expected|Colonel Childers to surrender...
{115303}{115351}to the attacking crowd|or to fight them?
{115353}{115384}I would have expected neither.
{115386}{115424}The colonel should have let me|address the crowd,
{115425}{115479}then he could have withdrawn|his marines.
{115481}{115531}Would you have expected him|to hold his fire as he withdrew,
{115533}{115612}even if he were taking casualties?|- To the extent possible.
{115613}{115640}So your order would have been,
{115642}{115684}Hold your fire to the extent|possible, Marines.
{115685}{115745}And to the extent not possible,|fire away.
{115806}{115852}Ambassador.
{115916}{115968}This photograph|is exhibit "C".
{116051}{116118}- What is that?|- It's a security camera.
{116119}{116153}Is it mounted|on the roof of the embassy...
{116154}{116203}and pointed down to where|the crowd had gathered?
{116205}{116258}- I would suppose so.|- Yes or no, please.
{116260}{116306}Yes.
{116308}{116375}- Is it in operation 24 hours a day?|- I suppose so.
{116377}{116423}- Yes or no?|- Yes.
{116425}{116506}Do you suppose there is a taping|system attached to this camera?
{116508}{116545}- Your Honor.|- Colonel.
{116547}{116581}- Yes.|- Where's the tape?
{116582}{116652}It is my understanding|that if there were tapes,
{116653}{116724}undamaged tapes, they'd have been|sent to the State Department.
{116726}{116751}Undamaged tapes?
{116753}{116832}Well, there was|destruction and looting...
{116834}{116892}after the killing.
{116894}{116992}As you withdrew, did you remember|to take the American flag with you?
{117141}{117213}Did you remember to take|the American flag, sir?
{117214}{117284}- Of course.|- Where is that flag now?
{117285}{117357}I brought it home and returned|it to the State Department.
{117358}{117425}It was shot to shreds,|wasn't it?
{117426}{117472}By the snipers, yes.
{117474}{117545}Yeah?
{117817}{117868}Right! Go right!
{117898}{117949}Goal!
{118144}{118192}At ease, son.
{118194}{118267}Let me see. Which one|of you people is named Justin?
{118269}{118338}- Let me take a guess. How about you?|- No.
{118340}{118422}Then I'll have to make|another guess. I'll take, uh... you.
{118424}{118482}How'd you know?|Are you in the marines?
{118483}{118540}Yes, sir, lam.
{118541}{118605}Go on in the house, kids.|There are sandwiches in the kitchen.
{118607}{118680}Mrs. Mourain, I'm sorry|to bother you at home.
{118681}{118745}- I'm Colonel...|-I know who you are, Colonel Hodges.
{118747}{118817}- Is that your boy?|- Yes.
{118819}{118892}Can I talk to you|a few minutes?
{118894}{118965}I don't think|that's appropriate.
{118967}{119013}I don't believe your husband|is telling the truth...
{119015}{119066}about what Colonel Childers did|in Yemen.
{119124}{119199}Kids, go on in the house.|There are sandwiches on the table.
{119200}{119259}Let's go! Come on!
{119384}{119453}You should take that up|with my husband, shouldn't you?
{119454}{119531}Colonel Childers risked his life|so you could be here, ma'am,
{119533}{119616}watching these kids play|out these windows.
{119617}{119665}Does that bother you?
{119770}{119835}I feel terrible about what|happened to Colonel Childers.
{119837}{119891}Can you tell me that he|manhandled your family?
{119893}{119955}Or that he prevented|your husband from doing his job?
{119957}{120034}Ma'am?|Can you tell me that?
{120036}{120083}No.
{120084}{120156}As far as I'm concerned,|he behaved quite honorably.
{120157}{120204}Will you testify to that?
{120373}{120445}- My husband's a good man.|- So is Colonel Childers.
{120493}{120532}I've been married for ten years.
{120533}{120588}You're asking me to throw that|away in an afternoon.
{120590}{120669}Your husband and you|and your son...
{120671}{120749}owe your lives|to Colonel Terry Childers.
{120812}{120867}We all have our priorities,|Colonel.
{120913}{120959}I can subpoena you, ma'am.
{121000}{121053}Please don't.
{121054}{121173}Don't put me up there.|I'm a very credible witness.
{121174}{121221}Now, if you'll excuse me.
{121222}{121301}You won't tell the truth|if I put you on the stand?
{121303}{121385}I don't know|what the truth is.
{121387}{121460}Colonel Childers is on trial for|what he did outside the embassy.
{121462}{121517}I wasn't there.|Were you?
{121657}{121699}Captain Lee, you were in command|of the TRAP team...
{121700}{121766}and the second ranking officer|under Colonel Childers in Yemen?
{121767}{121806}- Yes, sir.|-And you were on the roof...
{121808}{121872}of the embassy, were you not?|- Yes, I was.
{121873}{121922}Colonel Childers ordered you|to open fire...
{121924}{121992}immediately after Sergeant|Richard Krasevitch was shot.
{121994}{122046}- Is that correct?|- Yes.
{122047}{122118}But Sergeant Krasevitch was not|shot by the demonstrators, was he?
{122120}{122154}Objection. How could we know|the exact firing position...
{122156}{122201}of the bullet that killed|Sergeant Krasevitch?
{122203}{122264}Sustained. Counsel|refrain from leading the witness.
{122266}{122315}Did you at any time...
{122317}{122399}receive gunfire from within|the demonstration itself?
{122450}{122518}Captain?
{122520}{122577}I can't remember any fire|from the demonstrators,
{122578}{122643}to my knowledge that is, sir.
{122645}{122715}You killed the wrong people,|didn't you?
{122717}{122781}You should've been firing|at the snipers across the way.
{122783}{122839}- Isn't that correct?|- I can't answer...
{122841}{122876}- Objection. Calls for speculation.|- Sustained.
{122878}{122940}You shot at people who|were demonstrating peacefully,
{122941}{122982}who were not using|deadly force.
{122983}{123014}Your Honor, that's not|in evidence here.
{123016}{123118}Sustained. Major, I'm not going|to warn you again.
{123157}{123240}Captain, what were the words|Colonel Childers used...
{123242}{123297}when he ordered you to fire|on the demonstrators?
{123299}{123371}I don't remember|the exact words, sir.
{123373}{123432}He ordered me|to open fire.
{123474}{123521}When you obeyed Colonel|Childers' order to open fire,
{123523}{123569}did you believe it|to be a lawful order?
{123571}{123596}Yes, sir.
{123598}{123669}Otherwise it would have been your|duty to disobey. Is that right?
{123670}{123696}Yes, sir.
{123698}{123758}When your men opened fire|on the attackers in the crowd,
{123760}{123850}did the snipers in the buildings|across the way cease their firing?
{123851}{123899}Absolutely, sir.|It went completely quiet.
{123900}{123927}It would seem, then,
{123928}{123964}that the two groups were|actually one working together.
{123966}{124033}Objection. Counselis drawing|a conclusion for the witness.
{124035}{124075}Sustained.
{124077}{124112}Were you in a position|to observe Colonel Childers...
{124113}{124143}when everyone was evacuated?
{124145}{124167}Yes, I was.
{124169}{124216}What was the last thing|you saw him do?
{124218}{124293}- He went to the flagpole.|- Then what'd he do?
{124295}{124344}He took down|the American flag.
{124346}{124407}Was he personally|under heavy fire at that time?
{124409}{124503}- Yes, sir.|- No more questions.
{124504}{124579}Captain, prior to receiving orders|from the accused to open fire,
{124580}{124647}where was the point of greatest|concern for the safety of your men,
{124648}{124753}the crowd below or the snipers|in the buildings across the way?
{124754}{124840}- I'm not really sure.|- You're not sure?
{124841}{124888}Well, I guess...
{124891}{124946}Don't guess.|I'll repeat the question.
{124947}{125027}Was the point of greatest concern|the crowd below...
{125028}{125087}or the snipers|across the way?
{125123}{125182}I would have to say|the snipers.
{125183}{125253}Did you feel an immediate mortal|danger from the crowd as a whole?
{125255}{125302}- I don't understand.|- You don't understand?
{125304}{125377}- No, sir.|- Let me help you.
{125454}{125493}Were you more worried...
{125495}{125554}you'd be killed by these people|or by these people?
{125555}{125617}I wasn't thinking about that.|Have you ever been under fire?
{125619}{125709}You didn't see the crowd firing, but|you did take fire from the snipers.
{125711}{125781}Is that correct?
{125880}{125935}Yes.
{125943}{126034}Our clinic is not too far|from the embassy.
{126036}{126121}So I was one of the first|to arrive there.
{126123}{126203}Did you see any weapons|on the bodies of the dead?
{126205}{126244}No.
{126245}{126316}Did you remove any weapons from|the people you were treating?
{126319}{126344}No.
{126345}{126425}Not a single weapon|anywhere among the victims?
{126427}{126473}No, no weapons.
{126475}{126572}In your opinion, is Yemen|a training ground for terrorists?
{126609}{126664}Not at all.
{126666}{126736}We met in Yemen.
{126737}{126806}You encouraged me to tour|your clinic in order to witness...
{126808}{126860}the suffering caused by|Colonel Childers' orders.
{126861}{126917}- Do you remember that?|- Yes.
{126965}{127033}I found an audiocassette|on the floor of your clinic.
{127035}{127098}It's marked exhibit "R".
{127100}{127152}Do you remember that?
{127236}{127300}- Yes.|- I found another one...
{127301}{127350}inside the embassy.
{127352}{127437}In fact, I found several others.|They're all marked exhibit "R".
{127479}{127553}Will you translate the writing on|the outside of that cassette?
{127612}{127715}Declaration|of Islamic Jihad...
{127716}{127775}"Against United States".
{127778}{127844}These audiocassettes are used|for the purposes of religious...
{127845}{127924}and political propaganda due to|the high illiteracy rate in Yemen.
{127926}{127978}- Is that correct?|- Yes.
{127980}{128012}Will you translate|the words you hear...
{128014}{128084}on this audiocassette|for the court, please?
{128367}{128422}Dr Ahmar?
{128424}{128520}We call on every Muslim|who believes in God...
{128522}{128585}and hopes for reward...
{128586}{128653}"to obey God's command".
{128843}{128912}Dr Ahmar, does it say|what God's command is?
{128938}{128993}To kill Americans...
{128994}{129045}and plunder...
{129047}{129153}"their possessions|wherever he finds them".
{129209}{129275}- Go on, please.
{129325}{129377}To kill Americans...
{129379}{129435}and their allies,
{129437}{129557}both civil|and military,
{129558}{129663}is duty of every Muslim...
{129664}{129723}"who is able".
{129725}{129838}To kill Americans is a duty.
{129839}{129907}- Is that what it says?|- Yes.
{130043}{130110}Do you recognize|the speaker's voice?
{130112}{130194}No.
{130195}{130265}Dr Ahmar, in your opinion,|is this propaganda...
{130267}{130338}representative|of that demonstration?
{130340}{130454}No. I'm not a member|of Islamic Jihad!
{130491}{130552}The crowd|was singing songs.
{130585}{130644}I heard them from my clinic.
{130652}{130706}What was your reaction when you|learned that Colonel Childers...
{130708}{130748}had been selected|to lead this mission?
{130750}{130822}I was very pleased. The colonel|had a distinguished record.
{130824}{130914}- He's a nationally renowned war...|- How did you define his mission?
{130916}{130962}We wanted to increase security,|but frankly,
{130964}{131054}if things got threatening,|we wanted an evacuation.
{131055}{131114}So you weren't looking|for confrontation?
{131115}{131184}No, that's what we wished|to avoid at all costs.
{131185}{131235}What was your reaction|to what happened?
{131237}{131304}I was stunned,
{131305}{131352}appalled.
{131353}{131419}Wasn't the severity of the problem|at the embassy understated?
{131420}{131473}Absolutely not.
{131475}{131567}We operated on the information|we had at the time.
{131569}{131663}I have here a State Department|report from Yemen.
{131666}{131712}It's exhibit "M".
{131714}{131788}Will you read the underlined|sections for the court, please?
{131790}{131844}Certainly.
{131845}{131964}'January25.|Grenade thrown at police car.
{131965}{132102}January 27. Sixteen Western tourists|abducted by fundamentalist group".
{132104}{132211}- Go on, please.|- "February 6."
{132213}{132272}- A bomb explodes in a car...|- You got today's Post?
{132274}{132320}- Yeah.|- Yeah. Give it to me.
{132322}{132404}Stun grenade thrown at newspaper|kiosk near a police station.
{132407}{132464}March 13.|A military officer...
{132466}{132592}is seriously wounded by|Yemen's first... donkey bomb.
{132593}{132653}Explosives were apparently|concealed under the saddle.
{132656}{132710}Thank you.
{132712}{132839}I have another State Department|document, dated 17 November.
{132841}{132897}It's from the ambassador|to you.
{132899}{132969}Will you read this|for the court, please?
{133075}{133162}Dear Bill. Please, we must revisit|our previous conversation...
{133163}{133225}in that the security measures we|have taken are still inadequate...
{133227}{133273}"for the protection|ofour mission to Yemen".
{133275}{133315}You have to understand that|when I received this letter...
{133316}{133434}Thank you. Now, there are...|Well, are there... cameras...
{133436}{133523}mounted on the roof of the embassy?|- Uh, yes.
{133524}{133571}Are they designed|to observe and record...
{133572}{133621}activities in the public spaces|outside the embassy?
{133623}{133697}- Yes.|- Where are the tapes?
{133698}{133766}Uh, it's my understanding|the embassy was looted.
{133768}{133836}Maybe the cameras|were destroyed.
{133901}{134011}This is a photograph.|It is exhibit "D" for the court.
{134013}{134095}It's a picture of a camera|on the embassy roof.
{134097}{134144}Does it appear|to be damaged?
{134146}{134184}No.
{134185}{134249}- Where are the tapes?|- I don't know.
{134251}{134316}Don't you think|the United States owes it...
{134318}{134380}to Colonel Childers|for 30 years of service...
{134382}{134436}to find that tape|and produce it here?
{134437}{134482}Objection. We don't know|anything about any tapes.
{134484}{134579}- This is pure speculation.|- Sustained.
{134624}{134701}This is a shipping manifest.|It's exhibit "O".
{134703}{134762}It is a list of items removed from|the embassy during the evacuation...
{134764}{134802}and shipped|to the State Department.
{134803}{134880}Will you read|line six, please?
{134882}{134976}Videotape from security|camera, VHS, one.
{134978}{135013}You too busy to look at those|tapes or you just didn't care?
{135014}{135086}Objection. He's badgering|the national security advisor.
{135087}{135142}Sustained. Counsel,|please proceed carefully.
{135143}{135202}- Where are those tapes?|- Objection! Asked and answered.
{135203}{135284}Oh. Yes, right. Right.|Don't you think it's funny...
{135285}{135352}that a tape that could exonerate|my client is missing?
{135354}{135392}I don't think it's funny at all.
{135394}{135453}Withholding evidence|is a very serious crime.
{135454}{135544}- Objection.|- Sustained. Counsel, rephrase.
{135545}{135609}Withholding evidence to frame|a United States Marine...
{135610}{135664}is no less evil than charging|my client with murder.
{135665}{135696}Where are those tapes?
{135698}{135748}Colonel, I turned over all|materials in my possession...
{135750}{135797}to Major Biggs.
{135799}{135868}If those tapes showed a happy|crowd of peaceful demonstrators,
{135868}{135915}we'd be looking at 'em.
{135916}{135957}Objection, Your Honor.|This is contempt.
{135959}{136013}Colonel,|this is your last warning.
{136014}{136061}It was a new security system.
{136062}{136113}The cameras were pointed down|at the crowd.
{136114}{136172}Tapes were recorded, and those tapes|were sent to the State Department.
{136173}{136213}Why are those tapes not here?
{136215}{136288}Objection, Your Honor.|I've seen no such tapes.
{136369}{136450}No further questions.
{136452}{136498}There are no tapes showing|the crowd firing weapons?
{136500}{136545}None that I'm aware of.
{136547}{136616}And the government has turned|over all of its evidence?
{136617}{136647}Of course.
{136649}{136696}Colonel Hodges has gone|to some length...
{136698}{136799}to have you read security reports|illustrating violence in Yemen.
{136801}{136869}- Yes, he has.|- Here is today's Washington Post.
{136871}{136905}Will you read these headlines|that I've underlined...
{136908}{136951}from today's Metro section?
{136987}{137088}Agent, kidnapper killed in|rescue of businessman's son.
{137090}{137157}Bomb threat evacuates|Museum of Natural History.
{137159}{137240}Officer chases truckdriver,|fires 38 times.
{137242}{137337}Husband shoots wife,|himselfin street.
{137340}{137414}Mr. Sokal, does this random,|unfortunate news mean we should...
{137416}{137517}allow Colonel Childers and his|troops loose in Washington, D.C.?
{137518}{137580}Don't answer that.|Thankyou, Mr. Sokal.
{137582}{137637}Present arms!
{137685}{137778}Order arms!
{138573}{138652}Take deep breaths, sir! You're|almost out of here. Stay calm.
{138654}{138731}I hope you know|how to fold it, sir.
{138733}{138796}Thank you, Colonel.|I'll never forget this.
{139219}{139262}Krasevitch is hit!
{139263}{139305}Corpsman!
{139329}{139376}Corpsman! Shit!
{139377}{139427}Goddamn it!
{140041}{140105}Engage hostile targets|as they appear!
{140107}{140192}Waste the motherfuckers!
{140367}{140451}Cease fire!|Cease fire!
{140453}{140500}Cease fire!
{140578}{140644}Order arms!
{140653}{140710}I was proud of my marines.
{140712}{140756}They showed|remarkable discipline.
{140758}{140804}Why didn't you fire|at the snipers in the buildings...
{140806}{140860}instead of at the crowd below?
{140861}{140920}Because I believed we were|in greater danger from the crowd.
{140922}{140977}- Was that crowd firing at you?|- Yes.
{140978}{141077}The demonstrators in front of|the building were firing at you...
{141078}{141146}in addition to the snipers?|- Yes.
{141148}{141207}Why didn't anybody else|see that crowd firing?
{141209}{141261}My men were|under cover on the roof,
{141263}{141320}except for Krasevitch|who was on an observation post.
{141321}{141399}And why isn't he here testifying|on your behalf today?
{141455}{141535}Because he was killed in action.|He died in my arms.
{141536}{141638}So you were the only man left in|a position to observe that crowd?
{141639}{141698}Yes.
{141699}{141758}Where else have you been|in combat, Colonel?
{141761}{141828}Vietnam, Beirut,
{141830}{141885}Panama, Persian Gulf.
{141887}{141946}Can you identify that blue and|white ribbon on your uniform?{141947}{141989}It's the Navy Cross.
{141990}{142082}Do you remember the citation|that accompanied that medal?
{142084}{142149}For conspicuous gallantry in|the face of great personal danger,
{142151}{142197}reflecting great credit|upon himself,
{142199}{142251}"the United States Marine Corps|and the Naval Service".
{142253}{142308}Your witness.
{142420}{142474}Colonel,
{142476}{142535}you gunned down|more than 80 people.
{142565}{142664}You wounded|another hundred or so.
{142665}{142778}Could this have been motivated|by a desire for retaliation?
{142780}{142827}I was protecting my men.
{142829}{142904}Sergeant Richard Krasevitch was|shot only a few feet away from you.
{142906}{142978}- Is that correct?|- Yes.
{142980}{143032}And right after Sergeant|Krasevitch died,
{143034}{143080}you ordered open fire|on the crowd?
{143082}{143152}- Is that also correct?|- I was taking fire.
{143153}{143212}There were weapons|in that crowd.
{143214}{143264}Well, you wouldn't shoot|unarmed people, would you?
{143266}{143291}No, I would not.
{143292}{143377}Even in the heat of battle, you|wouldn't shoot an unarmed person?
{143431}{143494}No.
{143709}{143761}This is exhibit "F".
{143763}{143839}Will you please read|the following to the panel?
{143876}{143963}Rules of engagement governing|ground conflict in urban areas.
{143965}{144043}One. If possible,|the enemy will be warned first,
{144045}{144091}then asked to surrender.
{144093}{144165}Colonel, did you warn|the enemy?
{144167}{144227}We arrived in helicopters.|We were standing on that roof armed.
{144229}{144316}Did you warn them, either with shots|into the air or by a loudspeaker?
{144318}{144384}Did you ask them|to surrender?
{144386}{144445}No.
{144446}{144518}I'm sorry, no, you did not|warn the crowd?
{144521}{144587}Yes. No, I did not|warn the crowd.
{144589}{144665}Continue, Colonel.|You seem to know them by heart.
{144667}{144733}Deadly force|is the last resort.
{144780}{144828}- Go on.|- Three.
{144831}{144888}When possible, try to arrange|for the evacuation of civilians...
{144889}{144940}prior to any U.S. attack.
{144942}{144996}Did you do that, try|to evacuate the innocent people...
{144998}{145041}before you slaughtered them?
{145043}{145112}Objection. That is inflammatory.|- Rephrase, Major.
{145114}{145193}Did you try, following Section C|ofthe rules of engagement...
{145195}{145322}for ground conflict in urban areas,|to evacuate innocent civilians?
{145324}{145389}- No.|- No.
{145551}{145609}Yeah, yeah.
{145642}{145697}I just have|one more thing, Colonel.
{145728}{145804}Did you have to repeat|your orders to Captain Lee?
{145806}{145859}- I'm sorry?|- You ordered Captain Lee...
{145860}{145911}to engage hostile targets,|and he advised you...
{145912}{145959}that there were women and children|in the line of fire.
{145961}{146008}- Is that correct?|- He couldn't see...
{146009}{146104}Yes or no, Colonel? Didhe|follow your first set of orders?
{146156}{146202}I don't remember.
{146204}{146275}Captain Lee is on record|as saying he hesitated...
{146278}{146340}and mentioned the snipers|in the buildings.
{146341}{146439}- Is his testimony accurate?|- I don't remember.
{146441}{146494}Let me get this straight.
{146496}{146549}You evacuate|the ambassador.
{146551}{146647}You go back to the roof.|Two of your marines are K.I.A.
{146650}{146705}A third,|Sergeant Krasevitch, dies.
{146707}{146764}"You give your captain|an order which he doesn't follow;"
{146766}{146829}in fact, he questions.
{146831}{146881}And then you said what?
{146882}{146973}I don't remember.
{146974}{147010}You don't remember|what you said next?
{147012}{147069}It was combat,|not some training exercise.
{147070}{147101}A moment later,|your men were shooting.
{147103}{147122}What did you say|to make that happen?
{147123}{147146}I don't know.
{147147}{147237}You must have said something.|Captain Lee reversed himself.
{147239}{147313}- What did you say?|- I don't know the exact words.
{147315}{147343}- Let me help you.|- Your Honor.
{147344}{147393}You said, "Waste the motherfuckers,"|didn't you?
{147395}{147431}- No, no, no.|- You didn't say it?
{147433}{147504}- It all happened so fast...|- You're under oath, Colonel!
{147543}{147597}Let me refresh|your memory.
{147598}{147665}This is exhibit "ry" a tape|recording made aboard...
{147667}{147760}the U.S.S. Wake Island of all radio|communications received that day,
{147762}{147824}including your exact words.
{147826}{147879}Your Honor, with your permission|I would like to play this tape.
{147880}{147926}If you got it on tape,|then that's what I said!
{147927}{147989}They were killing my marines,|so, yeah, I said it!
{147991}{148038}Waste the motherfuckers!
{148069}{148113}- Are these "the motherfuckers"?|- Objection.
{148114}{148144}- Overruled.|- Yes!
{148145}{148205}- These?|- Objection!
{148207}{148252}Yes!
{148253}{148276}- These?|- Objection!
{148277}{148313}- Overruled.|- Yes.
{148315}{148355}Are these "the motherfuckers"...
{148357}{148399}that you ordered to be wasted?|- Your Honor.
{148401}{148445}- Major.|- Yes!
{148447}{148537}The crowd in front of the embassy|had no weapons, did they, Colonel?
{148539}{148579}Objection. We found|no snipers' weapons either.
{148580}{148629}Yes, they had weapons!
{148631}{148677}You think there's|a script for fighting a war...
{148679}{148707}without pissing somebody off?
{148709}{148755}Follow the rules,|and nobody gets hurt?
{148757}{148816}Yes, innocent people probably died.
{148818}{148864}Innocent people always die.
{148866}{148936}But I did not exceed|my orders!
{148937}{148986}There are rules, and marines|are sworn to uphold them.
{148989}{149072}I was not going to stand by|and see another marine die...
{149073}{149127}just to live|by those fucking rules!
{149129}{149200}Colonel!
{149315}{149363}Your Honor,|I request a recess.
{149366}{149407}Major.
{149449}{149532}The government is finished with|Colonel Childers, Your Honor.
{149534}{149605}All right, Colonel,|you have your recess.
{149779}{149822}Why didn't you tell me|what you said?
{149823}{149882}- I didn't remember.|- "Waste the motherfuckers".
{149883}{149940}That's brilliant.|You didn't think that was important?
{149941}{149976}Why didn't you know|about the goddamn recording?
{149978}{150048}- You're supposed to know...|- I had a week to prepare this case.
{150050}{150076}I didn't realize|what a fuck up I'm defending.
{150078}{150134}- Well, now you know.|- Goddamn.
{150448}{150513}- This is going to take us both down.|- How's that work?
{150514}{150596}You gonna spend the rest|of your life in prison too?
{150847}{150905}I'm sorry.
{151003}{151087}- I really screwed up in there, huh?|- Yeah, you really did.
{151088}{151147}Whew!
{151149}{151224}- So what happens now?|- Shit, I don't know.
{151225}{151324}I don't know.
{151373}{151416}Your Honor, the government|calls Colonel Bin Le Cao...
{151417}{151468}as a rebuttal witness.|- Objection, Your Honor.
{151469}{151520}What are the grounds for|this rebuttal witness to be allowed?
{151522}{151583}Will counsel please|approach the bench.
{151725}{151804}- Who is Colonel Bin Le Cao?|- A North Vietnamese Colonel...
{151806}{151856}who fought against Colonel Childers|at the battle of Ca Lu.
{151857}{151933}What he has to say directly refutes|statements made by Colonel Childers.
{151935}{151994}- When was the battle of Ca Lu?|- 1968.
{151996}{152084}This is uncharged misconduct. It is|not allowable under military law.
{152086}{152143}How do you know this witness|is going to charge misconduct?
{152144}{152168}I'm assuming...
{152169}{152215}He knows because he was|at the battle of Ca Lu.
{152217}{152263}- Is that true?|- Yes, sir.
{152265}{152333}On what grounds are you|calling your witness?
{152335}{152388}Colonel Hodges made Colonel|Childers' combat experience...
{152390}{152424}part of his defense.
{152425}{152472}Furthermore,|Colonel Childers testified...
{152473}{152520}that he never shoots unarmed people.
{152521}{152618}My witness has an important|perspective on that statement.
{152685}{152748}I'm gonna allow|the witness.
{153070}{153102}Do you swear or affirm...
{153104}{153139}that the evidence you shal I give|in this case...
{153142}{153177}shall be the truth,|the whole truth...
{153180}{153225}and nothing but the truth,|so help you God?
{153227}{153289}Yes, I do.
{153291}{153327}Will you please state|your name for the court?
{153328}{153441}- My name is Bin Le Cao.|- In 1968, you were a colonel...
{153443}{153514}with the North Vietnamese army,|B3 regiment, involved in a fight...
{153516}{153605}with American marines at Ca Lu|in the Quang Tri province?
{153607}{153641}Yes, I was.
{153644}{153693}Will you tell the court|about that battle?
{153695}{153770}We were aware that|small units of Americans...
{153771}{153846}ryere ryeryr|my company of men.
{153848}{153928}We found ourselves|behind your forces.
{153930}{154017}This was lucky for us|because we were out numbered.
{154123}{154169}Do you recognize|this man?
{154207}{154253}Yes.
{154255}{154313}Did he capture you and your|radio operator that day?{154315}{154341}Yes.
{154342}{154433}Did he remove your weapons|and place you under armed guard?
{154435}{154457}Yes.
{154458}{154504}Did you consider yourself|a prisoner of war?
{154505}{154569}Yes.
{154571}{154622}Did he execute|your radio operator?
{154675}{154721}Yes.
{154723}{154791}You personally saw him shoot|a fellow prisoner of war?
{154793}{154848}Yes.
{154850}{154908}Where did he shoot him?
{154909}{154959}In the head.
{154961}{155015}Thank you.|No further questions.
{155121}{155219}Were your men annihilating|that platoon of marines?
{155221}{155267}Yes.
{155269}{155340}Did Colonel Childers force you|to call your men off?
{155343}{155391}Yes.
{155393}{155440}Do you believe his actions|were calculated to save...
{155441}{155536}the lives of American marines?|- Yes.
{155539}{155597}Would you have done the same|thing Colonel Childers did...
{155599}{155645}if the situation|had been reversed?
{155825}{155871}Colonel Cao, would you have shot...
{155873}{155932}a captive American radio operator|in the head if you thought...
{155933}{156046}it would persuade Colonel Childers|to spare the lives of your own men?
{156135}{156194}Yes.
{156262}{156332}No more questions.
{156334}{156393}This court is in recess|until tomorrow at 09:00.
{156395}{156441}#NAZWA?
{156674}{156737}- General, good to see you.|- Perry, good to see you too.
{156738}{156803}I want you to meet|my grandson.
{156805}{156860}Hi. Nice to meet|you, sir.
{156862}{156910}Thanks.
{156997}{157065}Colonel Terry Childers|is a decorated war hero,
{157067}{157133}a trusted leader|of American marines,
{157134}{157215}and I wish that was|all there was to it.
{157217}{157297}Unfortunately, there are|83 dead Yemeni citizens,
{157298}{157374}many of them|women and children.
{157376}{157471}Colonel Hodges would have you|believe that this crowd was armed.
{157474}{157529}He would also have you believe|that there is a videotape...
{157531}{157587}proving this to be true.
{157660}{157753}There is no tape|exonerating Colonel Childers.
{157755}{157843}There is no evidence|exonerating Colonel Childers!
{158018}{158129}Is Colonel Childers a man capable of|killing defenseless, unarmed people?
{158169}{158233}Is he capable of ordering|the execution...
{158234}{158315}of innocent|men and women?
{158317}{158439}Is he capable of executing|P.O.W.s with his own hand?
{158440}{158509}Unfortunately,|we have shown that he is.
{158510}{158570}You have heard the sad testimony|of Colonel Cao...
{158572}{158650}who witnessed Colonel Childers'|barbarism firsthand.
{158700}{158770}You've even heard|Colonel Childers' own admission...
{158772}{158877}that his desire was to "waste"|them, regardless of who they were.
{158964}{159063}Now, we are faced|with the difficult prospect...
{159064}{159120}of convicting|one of our own.
{159122}{159193}None of us wants to do this,|but you've heard the facts,
{159195}{159249}and it is unavoidable.
{159251}{159345}Colonel Terry Childers ordered|the senseless slaughter...
{159347}{159415}of a peaceful crowd!
{159417}{159516}Now, as marines,
{159516}{159612}we do not get the luxury|of covering up our mistakes.
{159615}{159681}We must air them,
{159683}{159769}there by ensuring|that they never happen again.
{159771}{159837}Thank you.
{160008}{160055}That's sovereign|United States territory...
{160056}{160127}as much as if it were|in Ohio or Maryland.
{160128}{160188}Colonel Childers didn't|volunteer to go over there.
{160191}{160263}He was ordered to go there because|he was the best man for the job.
{160265}{160312}We armed him.|We trained him.
{160314}{160377}We sent him over there to risk|his life to save other Americans.
{160379}{160461}And then ask him|not to return fire?
{160462}{160551}There are over 300 bullet holes|in this building.
{160553}{160665}Colonel Childers didn't open fire.|He returned fire.
{160667}{160761}And he waited until after three|of his marines were dead...
{160763}{160818}and another lay|mortally wounded.
{160819}{160879}He waited until he was|personally under heavy fire.
{160881}{160978}He waited until he saw|that crowd holding weapons.
{160980}{161065}Only then did he order|his men to return fire.
{161067}{161112}Under the rules of engagement,|a civilian pointing a weapon...
{161113}{161159}is no longer a civilian,
{161161}{161224}and the use of deadly force|is authorized...
{161225}{161309}in order to save lives.
{161311}{161370}It's not murder.
{161398}{161445}It's combat.
{161476}{161528}Colonel Childers is|the only man alive...
{161529}{161586}who was in a position|to see that crowd.
{161587}{161649}But the camera on the embassy|roof had the same point of view.
{161651}{161694}The government|would have you believe...
{161696}{161745}there's no tape|from that camera.
{161747}{161830}I have shown you that that tape was|delivered to the State Department.
{161832}{161890}Do you believe that tape|got up and walked out...
{161893}{161950}of the State Department|on its own?
{161999}{162054}By not producing that tape,|the national security advisor,
{162056}{162151}Mr. Sokal, has brought dishonor|into this court.
{162154}{162241}Without that tape, I cannot show|you that the crowd fired first...
{162242}{162295}and that Colonel Childers|is innocent.
{162296}{162366}But without that tape,|they cannot prove...
{162367}{162442}beyond a reasonable doubt|that he's guilty!
{162498}{162555}Here's my case.
{162556}{162619}He's all I've got.|Thirty-two years of service,
{162621}{162677}thirty-two years of heroism|as a United States Marine.
{162679}{162748}Regardless of|what you decide here,
{162749}{162804}Colonel Childers' career|as a marine is over.
{162806}{162853}He will never again|command men in combat.
{162855}{162934}The ambassador and his family|are alive today because of him.
{162935}{162985}And I know how|the ambassador feels,
{162987}{163042}because Colonel Childers|saved my life too.
{163043}{163090}I'm alive today because of him.
{163091}{163163}My son is sitting in|this courtroom because of him.
{163164}{163224}I'm alive today,|and I have a son,
{163226}{163296}because of the heroism|of Colonel Childers.
{163298}{163394}To ask this man to risk his life|for his country,
{163452}{163549}to ask this man to watch|his marines die in his arms...
{163552}{163612}and call it murder|when he's defending himself,
{163614}{163692}call it murder for firing back|when fired upon...
{163694}{163756}To call it murder for saving|the lives of his countrymen...
{163757}{163852}under the most extreme|of circumstances, that's, uh...
{163854}{163964}My fellow Marines,|that's hanging him out to dry.
{164001}{164084}It's worse than leaving him|woundedon a battlefield.
{164086}{164152}That is something|you do not do...
{164152}{164227}if you are|a United States Marine.
{164275}{164362}And it is something that I pray|to God you won't do here either.
{164946}{165005}- What'd you think?|- You're pretty good.
{165007}{165064}Yeah. Yeah.
{165065}{165112}Dad, you were awesome.
{165114}{165160}Thanks, son.
{165162}{165228}I'm very glad that I don't|have to sit on that panel, son.
{165229}{165276}You made it|awful tough on them.
{165357}{165419}- 15,000 to 25,000...|- Excuse me.
{165529}{165575}I said no interruptions.
{165577}{165648}I'm sorry, Mr. Sokal.|It's very important.
{165779}{165826}Send him in.
{165855}{165919}Can we pick this up|after lunch, gentlemen?
{165921}{165967}Absolutely.
{166387}{166448}Close the door.
{166540}{166601}What is it, Colonel?
{166603}{166705}No matter what happens|to Terry Childers tomorrow,
{166707}{166738}I'm not going to leave|thisjob until I find out...
{166739}{166842}what happened to that tape.|- Good.
{166844}{166895}Think it'll ever turn up?
{166897}{166949}No.
{166950}{167013}I don't either.
{167015}{167112}Well, then there's nothing more|for us to talk about, is there?
{167114}{167196}You ever had a pissed-off|marine on your ass?
{167198}{167264}Is that a threat?
{167265}{167323}Oh, yes, sir.
{168263}{168336}All rise.
{168461}{168508}Has the panel|reached a verdict?
{168511}{168565}We have, sir.
{168869}{168952}Colonel Terry L. Childers, this|court-martial finds as follows.
{168952}{169020}On the charge|of breach of peace,
{169021}{169082}the court finds|the defendantguilty.
{169084}{169152}On the charge of conduct|unbecoming an officer,
{169154}{169248}the court finds|the defendant not guilty.
{169251}{169297}On the charge of murder,
{169299}{169399}the court finds|the defendant not guilty.
{169400}{169444}This court-martial|is adjourned.
{169445}{169521}Sentencing will be conducted|at a time to be determined.
{169523}{169574}Thank you.
{169975}{170037}- I need one more favor.|- Yeah.
{170038}{170069}Teach me how to fly-fish.
{170071}{170134}You are well aware that I know|shit about fly-fishing.
{170206}{170257}Oh.
{170452}{170505}Colonel.
{170583}{170637}You realize in light of|Colonel Cao's testimony,
{170638}{170700}we'll be pushing for charges|on the Ca Lu incident.
{170702}{170732}That was 30 years ago.
{170734}{170790}You're going to have|a hard time finding witnesses.
{170791}{170840}I thought maybe|you'd be willing to testify.
{170843}{170875}I'll make you a deal.
{170877}{170985}If you can tell me right now|what the life expectancy was...
{170988}{171092}for a second lieutenant dropped|into a hot L.Z. in Vietnam in 1968,
{171094}{171164}I'll tell you everything|I remember about Ca Lu.
{171200}{171237}- One week.|- Negative.
{171239}{171317}Sixteen minutes, Major.
{171319}{171387}Sixteen fucking minutes.
{171388}{171436}And that's all I remember.
{172600}{172648}Sir.
