Where Eagles Dare Page #3

We've brought them too far over.

Be sure they go beyond that tree line.

-And what about you?

-I'lI be along in a minute.

-Be sure they stay behind the trees.

-All right.

Broadsword calling Danny Boy.

Broadsword calling Danny Boy. Over.

MAN [OVER RADlO]: DannyBoy calling

Broadsword. Father Machree is waiting.

This is Father Machree, Broadsword.

What is your present position, please?

Over.

Woods due west of castle.

Descending at dusk. Harrod dead.

Over.

Was Harrod kilIed accidentally? Over.

No. Over.

By the Germans? Over.

No.

Time of next broadcast uncertain.

WiIl you stand by?

Over.

Colonel Turner and I wiIl remain

at headquarters till operation completed.

Good luck. Out.

It looks as though you're right, sir.

Yes, l'm afraid so.

Who's next, I wonder?

Smith himself, perhaps.

I doubt that.

Some people have a sixth sense.

He has a sixth, a seventh and an eighth.

-He's our best agent.

-Except yourself.

Still and alI, even if he is the best,

this whole operation looks impossibIe now.

SCHAFFER:
Take a look down there,

at the foot ofthe castle.

[DOG BARKING]

SMITH:

Dobermans.

Yeah. Dobermans, a guard tower

and a wire fence.

Fences can be cut or climbed, lieutenant.

I doubt ifthat one can be climbed. It's got

around 3,000 volts running through it.

If l'm not mistaken, major,

that's an army barracks over there.

SMITH:
No mistake. This is the headquarters

ofthe Wehrmacht Alpenkorps.

SweIl. Ifyou got any other surprises,

I think I ought to know about them.

I thought you knew, lieutenant.

Why do you think

we're not dressed as German sailors?

Training troops come and go aIl the time.

What are six new faces

among 600 new faces?

Look, major,

this is primarily a British operation.

I'm an American.

I don't even know why the hell I'm here.

Lieutenant, you're here

because you're an American.

[AIRCRAFT DRONlNG]

Dear Kramer, you have turned

a littIe gray since l saw you last.

I'm afraid so, sir.

-How is BerIin, sir?

-Things have changed.

You Iike my machine?

-It looks pretty dangerous.

-Well, you must try it.

Major Burkhalter, my adjutant.

Major Brant, Jaeger Battalion.

Colonel Weissner, FieId Security.

Major Von Hapen, Gestapo.

-Have you questioned him yet?

-No. I was waiting for you.

That Major Von Hapen,

does he know GeneraI Carnaby's here?

Yes. l did inform him of his arrival,

but not of his importance.

Good. If possible, l'd prefer the Gestapo

to be kept out ofthis matter...

-...until we have the information we want.

-Fine.

We don't need them cIuttering up things

with torture chambers.

This can remain a strictly army matter

for the time being.

-I agree.

-Good.

I've had a very tiring trip down here
