(radio feedback)

3
00:00:19,269 --> 00:00:24,821
JOHN MUSGRAVE: I was assigned a listening
post at Con Thien in the fall.

4
00:00:24,942 --> 00:00:28,867
That was like getting
a death sentence at a trial.

5
00:00:28,987 --> 00:00:31,285
Because that's just three
Marines out there with a radio.

6
00:00:32,783 --> 00:00:34,410
And that's the scariest thing
I did.

7
00:00:34,535 --> 00:00:37,209
You're listening for the enemy.

8
00:00:37,329 --> 00:00:40,333
They call you on the radio
every hour,

9
00:00:40,457 --> 00:00:41,800

1
00:00:13,472 --> 00:00:18,023
("With God on Our Side"
by Bob Dylan playing)

2
00:00:18,143 --> 00:00:21,943
DYLAN: # Oh, my name,
it is nothin' #

3
00:00:22,105 --> 00:00:24,417
JEAN-MARIE CROCKER: Well, I wanted
to name him after his clad,

4
00:00:24,441 --> 00:00:27,240
Denton Winslow Crocker.

5
00:00:27,361 --> 00:00:30,991
So that was the name we chose.

6
00:00:31,114 --> 00:00:33,367
He was a colicky little baby.

7
00:00:33,492 --> 00:00:37,372
And, uh, so we were up
night and day with him.

8
00:00:37,496 --> 00:00:40,750
And my husband was
a wonderful dad

9
00:00:40,874 --> 00:00:43,093
and very loving and attentive.

1
00:00:19,186 --> 00:00:22,736
JEAN-MARIE CROCKER: Sometimes I would
hear a car crunch up in the snow,

2
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:25,154
and I'd think maybe it
would be somebody coming

3
00:00:25,275 --> 00:00:26,743
to give us bad news.

4
00:00:26,860 --> 00:00:29,784
Which was not
good for me to think.

5
00:00:29,905 --> 00:00:31,782
It was an underlying anxiety

6
00:00:31,907 --> 00:00:34,786
that I really think was
there all the time.

7
00:00:36,411 --> 00:00:39,335
NARRATOR: All his young
life, Denton Crocker, Jr.-

8
00:00:39,456 --> 00:00:41,629
known as "Mogie" to his family...

9
00:00:41,792 --> 00:00:43,840
had dreamed of serving

1
00:00:03,086 --> 00:00:05,555

2
00:00:05,672 --> 00:00:08,516
(distant helicopter blades
beating)

3
00:00:17,851 --> 00:00:19,694
ROGER HARRIS:
Soldiers adapt.

4
00:00:19,811 --> 00:00:21,859
You go over there
with one mindset, you know,

5
00:00:21,980 --> 00:00:23,402
and then you adapt.

6
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:25,492
You adapt to the atrocities
of war.

7
00:00:25,609 --> 00:00:27,077
You adapt to...

8
00:00:29,446 --> 00:00:33,622
...killing and dying, you know.

9
00:00:33,784 --> 00:00:35,627
After a while
it doesn't bother you.

1
00:00:02,169 --> 00:00:04,922
(faint voice on radio)

2
00:00:09,426 --> 00:00:10,945

Rogen.

5
00:00:19,561 --> 00:00:22,735
RON FERRIZZI: Helicopters
are phenomenal machines.

6
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:25,200
You could float in the air.

7
00:00:25,317 --> 00:00:26,864
You can be like God.

8
00:00:34,117 --> 00:00:36,916
I flew below 500 feet.

9
00:00:37,037 --> 00:00:40,041
Above 500 feet was a kill zone.

1
00:00:03,170 --> 00:00:08,097
(people cheering,
turkeys gobbling)

2
00:00:08,258 --> 00:00:11,603
("Blues Run the Game" by
Simon and Garfunkel playing)

3
00:00:21,021 --> 00:00:26,369
# Catch a boat to England, baby,
maybe to Spain #

4
00:00:26,485 --> 00:00:28,613
# Wherever I have gone #

5
00:00:28,737 --> 00:00:32,116
# Wherever I've been and gone #

6
00:00:32,241 --> 00:00:36,371
# Wherever I have gone
the blues run the game. #

7
00:00:38,664 --> 00:00:41,713
TIM O'BRIEN: I grew up in
a small farming community

8
00:00:41,833 --> 00:00:45,303
in southern Minnesota
called Worthington.

9
00:00:45,420 --> 00:00:48,173

1
00:00:06,548 --> 00:00:08,846
...you got through!
Did you pass Chee on the road?

2
00:00:08,967 --> 00:00:10,310
No.
Where are the children?

3
00:00:10,427 --> 00:00:12,020
Kansas found a shelter for them.

4
00:00:12,137 --> 00:00:13,855
Get down, everybody!

5
00:00:16,892 --> 00:00:19,645
JOAN FUREY:
My older sister and I one time

6
00:00:19,770 --> 00:00:23,820
uh, we're watching the movie
So Proudly We Hail on TV.

7
00:00:23,941 --> 00:00:25,341
Listen, we still have
a few minutes!

8
00:00:25,442 --> 00:00:27,194
FUREY:
That's a story about the nurses

9
00:00:27,319 --> 00:00:32,120

1
00:00:02,586 --> 00:00:04,930

the Youngbloods playing)

5
00:00:11,803 --> 00:00:15,103

YOUNGBLOODS:

1
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,068
TIM O'BRIEN: They shared
the weight of memory.

2
00:00:27,611 --> 00:00:31,457
They took up what others
could no longer bear.

3
00:00:33,784 --> 00:00:38,961
Often, they carried each other,
the wounded or weak.

4
00:00:39,081 --> 00:00:40,628
They carried infections.

5
00:00:40,791 --> 00:00:42,919
They carried chess sets,
basketballs,

6
00:00:43,043 --> 00:00:45,137

00:00:45,295 --> 00:00:48,799
