Citizen Soldier Page #5

that he did

not know well

that were living

within the village.

Cameraman:

Okay, is there anything else

you'd like to add, sir?

All right,

appreciate you doing this.

Soldier over radio:

2-2 Bravo 7, please.

201 to get all

these people...

Soldier #2:

Main Element returned.

Excellent, excellent.

Once we get those heights,

we'll turn around and go in.

Harrill:

Yo, you hear that?

Brown:

Hear what?

Where the f***

did that come from?

( Distant gunfire )

Colson:

Contact, contact, contact!

Brown:

Get down, get down, get down!

It's coming from

the other side of the river!

Lyon, you good?

Gore, you good?

Whoa! Get over here.

Get over here.

Harrill:

Hey! Hey!

Contact! Contact!

Over here!

What went through my mind

was, Holy sh*t,

that's a machine gun.

And I just threw my stuff down,

you know, hit the ground,

and started returning fire.

Colson:
We started taking fire

from three different points

on the high ground.

The mountains...

three different angles.

In that vill!

In that vill!

Hey, right here!

Right here! Right here!

Contact over here!

Brown:
Right there on top

of that big spur!

Colson:

That draw right there.

That's the first time

I heard the sound...

( Imitates bullet whistling )

Bullets are impacting

this giant boulder.

And it becomes

immediately clear

that I'm not being guarded

by the rock,

I'm guarding the rock.

Fragments chipping away

in front of our faces.

( Grunts )

Colson:
Damn it,

where is that coming from?

Harrill:
Hey, I'm in a bad spot!

I've got to move.

It was very clear

at that point

that we were

kind of sitting ducks.

And we needed to move.

LT Brown spotted

a kind of a courtyard

that was down the mountain.

The problem was

just a straight run

and a prayer down a mountain

that offered no protection.

Brown:
Hey, listen,

we gotta bound back, all right?

Harrill:
LT just looks at us

and he goes,

"When I say go, go."

Brown:

Hey, pick out a spot!

Know where you're going

before you get up!

As soon as we start shooting,

go, all right?

Colson:

Hey, cover us, cover us.

Brown:

I've got you covered! Go!

Colson:

Go! Go! Go! Go!

Brown:
Go, go, move it!

Let's go!

Let's go, Bravo!

Let's go!

- ( Gunfire continues )

- Move, move, move!

Harrill:

Hey, hurry up! Hurry up!

Brown:
Hey, let me know

when you guys are set!

We're gonna come

in after y'all!

Harrill:

Bravo set, Bravo set.

Colson:

Set!

Brown:
I had

the other guys move first

and I was the last one

to go.

I already had a rock

picked out before I got up.

Hey, I'm moving back!

I'm moving back!

Harrill:

Get behind that rock.

Brown:
The rounds

were just flying by us

left and right.
