Nice and clean, is not it?

It's the best can get.?

Do you have any news?

- Have you seen my brother?

In Park Lane.

Do you have any sugar?

With greetings Sergeant

- Good job, Billy.

So When did it begin?

I have no idea They look like

sardines in the reserve trenches

But do not say nothing.

It's something I've never seen.

Men and women...

That's right...

- Now that's a kick, yes..

Dirty Liar!

- I tell you!

They did actually. You

could see everything.?

And that was sold to

- Ten pounds per photo.

So a man and a woman were

to do so and were photographed...

It bestial...

- Nobody does. Liar.

And if someone gives you 100 pounds

a wh*re to do?

See?

Then I have to cover my face

- Entomces pay it easily..

Callensen damn!

Good morning, Sergeant

- Take care, Dennis..

Hi, guys.

Sergeant...

Did you get Entoces buy?

- No, they were too expensive, but...

I have some

- Mostralas!

Yes Teach them, liar.

But you have to pay for it

a penny.

And I want the money before

- . We will, Billy.

If no value,

I want my money back.

Let's see them

Carefully!

Go passing them

This is beautiful

- Pasamelas Macfarlane

Eddie, look at this

It looks exactly the same to that...

- Very nice to be a wh*re?

No, who looks pensalo?

If supieraz who is?...

- That girl.!!

That girl in the post office

What do you think?

I swear No, it probably is

It looks like her.

What was he doing?

- No idea

Time passed, honey.

Comes an officer!

- Keep them..

At rest.

Can I talk to you, Sergeant?

It has been postponed.

For a day or two

And we have to stay here.

Here?

Oh Jesus Christ!

And the rest of the battalion?

- Backup?

They will come tonight and need to

keep the line until they arrive..

That will be just before the attack

- Other two nights?

But we will be with the first wave

We are the third wave.

But that's not what they said...

- I told them that we wanted

Very emphatically.

But they say that we are well

provided hot food and stuff.

What do you think?

- The third wave, said. / / - If

Supplies will come

Well Well...

Fix this mess

- What mess, Sergeant?

That f*cking mess!

What measuring tools...

I'm sick of digging in this way

- What the f*ck is wrong with you animals'

Always doing sh*t h*le What w*r!

A side. Free way!

Care back there... Out of the way.

Engineers.

Give me a hand.

The guys are the experts..

They are good men, but

- The salt of the earth.

They seemed very happy

Macfarlane and Daventry, your turn.

Move it

f*ck them. Go to sleep

- . Thank you, Sergeant.

One up, one down. Alternatively.

Thank you very much.

So bad it is, Lieutenant.

Anyway nice

I would like a sandwich

No matter what, except...

Canned meat

- I seek, Lieutenant.

I think there is Sardines.

Thank you!

Macfarlane, keep your head down.

Listen.

Do not smoke, do not sleep

Sergeant?

How far they are from us

because I see nothing?

Approximately 400 yards

But keep your eyes open

Last night, shot nine times

Fired?

- sn*pers.

Why do you think the trenches

are so deep?

There is a sn*per g*n pointing to the

peephole If you see a move, sh**t

Therefore it is very important...

So do not do anything stupid..

Okay Sergeant

Links are the Scots who

are right on our right

That's all you need to know.

Sergeant?

When... when expected

the attack?

I'll let you know with advance.

Billy... carefully

Daventry!

Daventry!

- Yes

How are you?

I can not be better.

I would not be anywhere else.

And you, how are you?

Want to relieve you?

I have to pee

- So.?

What's the problem?

I do not know where to do it

- In the trench, no one will notice.

I promise I will not tell

All right.

I will in a moment.

Very noble of you

How long have Tommy was k*lled?

Since December 1914

- Yes, now I remember.

God, it's been almost two years.

It was ten days before Christmas.

How...?

How was he really dead?

I have curiosity.

It was by an a*tillery shell

It exploded on top of it.

I went to see their companions.

I talked to them after

and was told that Tom...

Completely disappeared

He was gone.

Completely

Well, almost completely...

All they found

all small remnants...

They gathered in a sock

- Damn!

Why do you think so many Germans k*lled

as I can?

When we attack k*ll

all that we can... By Tom.

ZEnterraron the sock?

- What sock?

This sock where all the rest of it?

- Do not know. Why do.?

In a normal burial?

- Do not know. Why?

So worth the effort.

Daventry?

Daventry!

What is it?

- I heard something...

Probably one of us

- I heard German voices.

Billy. You hear those explosions?

Do not be stupid

- That bombing runs for five days..

Thousands and thousands of shells fall

in the German trenches / / z Then?

So if you're a German...

with all those explosions, z'd

walking in no man's land?

Not Probably not.

Go to sleep, Macfarlane.

At six hours we will be ready.

Nothing to report, Sergeant

He is calm.

See you later, Daventry.

Yes, see you later.

How are you?

Here you go,

Thanks

Well Anything new?

- All quiet.

Most sleep

Want a drink

against cold Sergeant?

I am a teetotaler, I promised.

This is beautiful. Very good.

Admirable.

I do not understand how you can, Sgt.

Do not condemn anyone. Do not judge others

who drink...

Just not for me.

I like to take something from time to time

In the early morning hours..

Prevents me crazy

- What is good...

What is good for one...

is another man's poison

- Yes

Of course.

Well, I go to sleep You...?

I'll do a round

And then go to the reserve trench..

Tomorrow will be a long day, we must

keep them busy. . Do not let them inactive.

I'll see that this is

- Well, good night.

Eddie, what time is it?

- Too late for me to wake up

Sorry

ZESA girl?

The post office.

Have you ever talked to her?

Sometimes Billy, I'm exhausted.

How old was he?

I do not know...

nineteen or twenty years..

It's bigger than us...

- Think do with it?

Did she do not mean not married?

Good night.

Where did they come from?

- Damn it. Liverpool was.

Liverpool was Irish It's all I know.

. I kept making you the idea

Liverpool Irish girl?

Nearly 19 years...

Billy.

Do not you...

Do you worry about being k*lled

Course

Duermete

Because I think you could

have saved

No. Like I had recruited

But you're a minor.

You had a waiver of a year.

Not while you're here.

Honestly I do not want to lose.

Not for the world

Thank you.

Good evening, Ed

Why are we doing this, Macfarlane?

Tell me that. Why? Why?

We must remain so in

Or the next day I know..

Why do we attack?

Hey You two, shut up!

Just for a moment

I give you two pounds..

Look at yourself

For two pounds. . No nonsense

- They are yours, Ed

Tell us what you see.

Nothing appears

It's just a grassy hill.

I see the topsoil.

- . That's it?

It's just a hill

leading to a quarry.

A half mile away

the grass moves..

He is calm

Only pastures that slope

They are run at the side...

He is calm...

This is not worth two pounds, f*ck

Medico!

Bring a doctor of sh*t.!

Is he dead?

All out of the way.

They are stupid!

He was a real stupid!

Because I was listening.!

It was a lucky man

- What did you say.?

Think about it, Billy

He was lucky.

Was this your idea, soldier?

I do not know what happened Sergeant

He said everything was safe..

He looked through the peephole

and then came the Bang...

Here's a cut.

A "gift" Macfarlane.

I think Eddie will be fine

- Del also has a head injury..

I'm sure I saw a drop of blood.

It will be a bloody scar.

Dell, was a tooth or incisor?

You can tell your grandchildren that

turned out to injured by a flying tooth

Why do not you finish?, Hoggschijt.

It was because of your dirty pictures

they brought bad luck..

Andá right to Sunday school.

Newly

If... these dirty pictures have cursed us..

You should not have brought them - That's

right, that if any would not have brought

God knows I will do with the rest of you

They are just naughty pictures is all

Jesus!

It was just for fun.

Bunch of f*cking idiots!

We can not allow ourselves to be in

our appearance.

Truth?, Macfarlane?

Want tea, Macfarlane?

Sorry about your brother.

But maybe it's better this way

Maybe he goes home..

You know that. in months

Far from this misery.

It will not hurt to go home..

He did not want to miss it

- He was a decent man.

We'll be fine

- He's not dead, Dennis..

I know... I know. Sorry

But he asked if he could pass

If something happened..

Have you ever talked to you?

- What did

He said he was convinced

Listen, I have a mission, Dennis.

I have eighteen years.

If you ever need someone to talk to...

"We are the eligidos

The lucky chosen. ."

"We band of brothers..."

How old are you?

You can smoke

a pipe or a cigarette...

And you can advance to Bapaume

without seeing a trace of German life.

Thumbs up, helmets, but joy.

Thank you, Colonel.

That was great.

You will be a movie star.

Over my dead body.

For make no mistake None.

And never say such a thing again

If you do not destroy

I'll make you sh*t

What happened?

Well, take a hill.

But damn... a damn mile behind

front. Right?

If a mile, yes

You could see the German line. </ I>

Just went up there and then...

Boom, out of nowhere shot

The kids started screaming.

They fell to the ground... Dead

Jesus!

- There was dead silence.

b*ll*ts whizzed

The boys shouted

and ran in all directions.

How was that?

The Germans

They have not seen them there on the hill

We shot with a machine g*n

in an arc. and good night.

We were too far away to hear anything

- Damn it. . What did you do?

I covered and I started to walk

- . We got lucky.

Many children died there

- We had a damn lucky..

It was so sudden, I tell

Come on, George. It was so sudden

. We were there...

we had only a few days

and we think...

His family does not know yet

- You could have told me.

You're "pulling" my best friend

How do you think I feel.?

When finished, Hogg

andd to Supplies.

And Rookwood, fast!

Hogg walks alongside..

And you, Opzouten also

Why do they call him Rag?

Because he looks like a mop.?

You know why we call him Charlie?

- Why not?

Because you're so hot.

I'm not happy, Horace.

I'm still not happy.

Come on, George

A year has passed since then..

How you gonna get 2000 pounds of him?

Why the letters??

That stupid game

- Honestly earned.?

When we return, will the money, huh

- You're going to be rich., I tell

Show me that game.

I just had a nice dream.

I was in Southport, on the boulevard.

With a very charming lady.

ZVos you think that...? I have an idea

Is it possible that someone once can...

that in 2 or 3 sentences...

Not important, but

is there anyway...

Something special about it..

Or something like that.

Asked fascinating Macfarlane.

You are talking nonsense. Gibberish.

Say what you mean.

I have not met anyone

what I said is not much, but...

but I think something special

between us.

Well...

This phenomenon, Billy...

It's called "love at first sight '

- I know.

I was sure it was mutual.

So it's not reciprocal of the girl?

No. Just what I said

She feels the same.

And z did you say in that

memorable encounter?

I remember exactly.

I said... I said:

Why I can please make a postal sending

for a shilling?

And what you said then Julia?

- No, her name was Mary. Maria Corrigan.

She said... I think it was well...

They begin to return fire

- That was close

Macfarlane. see the battalion.

Come to help the detachment of

rations?

Continue, huh Billy?

- Let's move!

And you go to relieve Digby

Where have you been, Macfarlane?

Arise.!!

What's the matter boy?

Come decímelo!

Macfarlane!

- What's wrong?

What is it?

He'll be fine...

It's just a shock

I can not imagine something so bad..

Bad luck

Ultimately, it is luck.

What do you mean?

All...

I chose three rations for departure

It could have been anyone..

Good luck to those who chose not

bad luck for those who do

That's a bit brutal.

You mean... no sense.

Who says I'm lucky?

Or you, Lieutenant.

Probably never thought

you'd come here.

I was hoping to start cultivating cotton

in South Africa, so...

There you...

What about you?

- Luck has nothing to do with it.

I am a professional soldier

- Ah. I see..

Okay?

- Very well, thank you.

Do you like fish? Sergeant

A little fish never displeased

- . I miss that.

My family had a house in Scotland

where you can go fishing..

Strange that

- I've never been to Scotland..

I hear it's quite nice

- Sure..

Are you all married, Sergeant?

- Yes

Children?

Two girls and a boy.

Thank you.

Cute family... Beautiful daughters.

It's a lucky man, Sgt.

Of luck...

Can I do anything for you, sir?

The Germans have a

trench dug around here...

Maybe some sort of post

listening.

The captain wants a patrol

there to investigate what happens...

And take action

when they detect someone there

A patrol. How many men?

As little or as much as you want

That's something I...

I must decide before the attack.

These things

been done before, huh?

Often

You were right.

Poor Rag and CharliezEh?

We have a damn lucky.

It was a disaster, right?

It was just...

a slaughter

Rag and Charlie...

There was nothing

- ZVos..

ZVos saw something of Hoggie?

He was somewhere in the side

I hate...

So we're not done..

You impending marriage

- I know what that means, Daventry.

Me too

- That was funny or clever.?

At all

- It's not f*cking funny. Hoggie is dead.

You're alive

- Yes...

But why much damn time?

Macfarlane, come here.

It's a sarcastic as*h*le

He finds it funny muu

Poor old George

Now I have to k*ll more Germans.

Are you okay?

- Yes, if Sgt.

Your brother is in a hospital in Etaples.

He will talk weird for the rest

of his life, but otherwise okay.

Soon to be back home.

Thank you, Sergeant

That is good news..

Better go gathering

Beckwith, you come with me.

Hey you okay?

- Do not wanna talk about it anymore. f*ck.

Sergeant zasí okay?

- As black as the ace of spades, Beckwith

Give me your grenades.!

S see exploit the mine,

throw him there.

If this does not work, geting

Otherwise, acabararas me..

Here we lieutenant

- We shall see

Luck!

Good luck to you too

We still need a password

for when we return.

How about Shakespeare?

"Victor Ludorum"

- Post Office. . </ i>

'Office'. will... Fires a

flare every fifteen minutes

Agree?

- Yes, Sergeant.

Well, Beckwith.

Let's put things in order.

Every fifteen minutes

sh**t a ball of green light..

Every fifteen minutes

- Yes, Lieutenant.

What an idiot, that is Mr. Harte

- You have a damn right..

He can not help it

- Why not.?

If you do?

He's like home

Certain

I can not see anything.

What the hell is that?

This is not English

- Not true.

God, What will happen to

Beckwith and Winter? Jesus!

Just hope you are well.

I have still two more.

"Post Office"

Here. Come here!

Avisale Harte, Cornwallis!

"Post office. ".

We have a surprise for

Units boys...

Erin, you.

Shut up. Silence.

Shut up.!

Shut you wh*re mouth.!

Mantenenganlo at gunpoint

I come and go..

Let anybody wants to put

above r*fle?

He walked around a daze,

after the grenades exploded

Do not know where I was

He walked straight towards us.

And that noise We heard screams.

We heard nothing

The explosions we had deaf..

Maybe it was an integral

of the trench

I heard nothing after the explosions.

It was funny. When we approach

his line, I heard them sing.

Below the earth, in their shelters.

They may have the courage to

keep up..

They are determined to fight,

after five days - Singing?

And the barbed wire?

- There are still plenty left.

After all those grenades? Jesus is going

on here? - Their trenches were broken.

Look what happens with him.

He shakes like a f*cking rabbit.

If you like a f*cking rat!

- Jesus Christ!..

They are stupid

What?

Nothing works as it should.

They sit there

They're waiting for us..

Boy! I'm talking to you

Were you singing? Was it so?

Come on...

Tomorrow sing no more

There is no doubt about it. .!

OK I just saw a red mist.

We would have to k*ll him

What are you doing?

Here, take one

Do not worry about it

It's a crazy guy

Forward. You've had enough.

Good..

Thanks... is good

- Snuff English, the best in the world.

What is your name?

Zimmermann. Dieter Zimmermann.

Dieter... My name is Colin.

Come and Stay Daventry

Making friends with the enemy

What a terrible crime! No?

He is a fellow of luck.

We are f*cking idiots

Wait and see.

What's wrong?

- God knows. It's a freak.

Beckwith, we will take the command

Goodbye. Thank you.

Shut up!

Shut the f*ck up.

Eddie What are you doing

- I went to the latrine Sergeant

Try to get some sleep

- Try.

I can not stop...

I can not stop thinking

Yes, if I know what you mean.

Want some jam?

My wife made

I try to eat it but too.

Strawberries, from my own garden

Delicious

No Thanks, Sergeant

- Forward..

The jam my wife is the best

world. Whole strawberries..

Please, I'm tired

- You eat them

Do not be silly

Everyone loves strawberries.

Not that I have between the teeth.

What were you doing Eddie?

He is a thief and he has my photo

- You're a f*cking liar. . liar

Calm down. What is going on here?

Let me... let me!

He checked things my brother Eddie..

Now listen

His brother has my picture there.

Find her then, but if not I will ask pardon

me you will ask forgiveness from Eddie.

Damn, I'll k*ll you

- Yes, we are.

Well, I will not do anything.

I'm not doing anything. Just wanted to see.

That lee no damage?

Right?

Bastardo, Dell.

b*stard

Go away the devil!

I do not need.

July 1, 1916

Come on, guys!

Hurry up!

Wake up, Beckwith.!

Where is he?

- In the reserve. taking orders

Make sure you come quick

- Not until you eat

Why?

- Because for Hate is good, I think.

Did you tell?

- I wanted to surprise

Then put a cup of tea for him

in the German line.

All right. All right.

It seems to be a good day.

Well, you know,

in other circumstances.

A 7. 30.

07: 30 AM

It is in broad daylight.

It's time

they have planned. Can not change.

Can you get this food here, please?

- Immediately, Sr

I have no appetite.

One day

I do not want a full stomach.

Never eat anything

- Very wise..

There's more...

Orders have changed Actually, there

is something that went wrong..

Two companies were lost

overnight

Is equiviocaron of communication trincera

is ridiculous.

So there is a great lack of men.

The squad will

with the rest of the company...

With the first wave.

That's not good.

Not with this group.

There's nothing we can do nothing

Orders have changed..

And men have to...

The men have...

Yes, and there's one more thing.

The captain has given each platoon

a soccer ball.

"The Great European Cup Final: Troupe" C"

Vs The Huns "</ i>

The platoon giving kicks here first Germans

in the lines, you get a beer barrel.

The captain seemed good for morale

have some fun, he said.

That clever idea...

They will be ready at 7..

We'll need rum now, sir

- Of course.

Ensure that, Sergeant?

What was that?

Where did that?

It was an accident, Sergeant

I put my r*fle against

wall and fell to the floor.

It was an accident, Sgt.

Now he's dead, Cornwallis.

I can not believe I did that.

They're all alike

Chats, until the time comes.

This is a court-martial

- Firing squad, no doubt about it..

Do you think he knew something?

Why would you do differently?

I'll tell you.

Because he is not a hero, like you and me.

Go to the Troupe, and bring us

rum. Bone will point the way.

At this time, Sergeant?

Cape, should be here in fifteen minutes

Hurry up

Beckwith, I have a gift for you.

Billy, this ball is as good

as what's inside.

Where are you going?

- I have to bring the rum

Here's a whole battalion.

Are you sure you told Dell to go?

- I could be wrong, Sergeant..

Even in the dark, I could not

- That son of a b*tch.

Where is whiskey Harte?

I do not know, Sergeant

- . How much are the damn whiskey?

Two bottles, Sergeant

Two and a bit.

There was an expl*si*n, Sergeant.

Now you come with me, son

Beckwith.!

Around here, and quickly!

Put it ready!

What is it? What do you want?

- No rum. The ration perdío.

Request permission to use his whiskey, Sr

What are you saying? Certainly not

- These men can not go without rum

We give them a sip of his whiskey

some courage, make five yards ahead.

Permission to use his whiskey

then you can recover

No, out of the question

Permission denied.

I said no

- You know it works..

Offer it with

"Greetings from Lieutenant '

Then will follow you everywhere

To hell and back..

At any other time would have arrested

and defendant

zSargento?

- What?

Sergeant, you've done this before, huh?

If

How do you think?

You should not think about it Remember

that your homework. . / / I mean...

I mean: Did you have fear?

the battle of the Somme...
