The Rat patrol are attacked by a group of Arabs working for the Germans. They survive the attack but find themselves with an unlikely prisoner.

How's it going?

The CS spring's gone.

Troy!

Arabs and two prisoners.

I want your prisoners.

Let them go.

Sarge!

My baby. My baby.

My baby. My baby.

My baby.

I'll kill you! I'll kill you!



That woman, her
husband was one of them,

working for the Germans.

They killed my wife.

They killed my husband.

Tully, get on the horn.

See if you can
raise Headquarters.

Get us an ambulance
and a rendezvous point.

Leave me here.

Give her what she
wants, Sergeant.

She deserves it.

Sarge, Kraut patrol
headed this way.

All right, let's go.

No.

That woman is not
worthy of your help.



She is nothing but
a... I said let's go!

I got through.

They're going to meet us at a bombed-out
village between here and Bir Kabel.

Right.

Better hurry. They're going
to be down our tailpipes soon.

All right, let's shake it.

Get the jeeps under cover.

Moffitt, watch out
for the ambulance.

I'm gonna get
her out of the sun.

Get under something! Take cover!

You all right, Tully?

Yeah.

What about Moffitt?

So far, so good.

Hitch.

Soon.

Soon.

Ambulance was a direct
hit. Both medics were killed.

All this because of her.

I managed to save this.

Medical equipment but no drugs.

Well, it better be quick.

Leave her, Sergeant.

Let's get out of here
while we still can.

Hit it!

Are you okay?

Hitch, all right? I'm okay.

Now what do we do, Sergeant,

shoot ourselves or wait
for the Germans to find us?

Sarge, the Krauts are moving in.

Take cover!

That wasn't very smart, Captain.

They could have killed us all.

What do you think
they're gonna do now?

Hey.

There's a break in the wall.

Explosion must have
caused it. Start digging, fast!

They'll need your help, Captain.

I said they'll need
your help, Captain.

You're gonna have that baby.

I promise you, you're
gonna have that baby.

Why won't you come, baby? Why?

Hitch, what are they
doing out there now?

Looks like they're getting
ready to blast us out of here.

Sarge, we're through.

Sergeant Troy, this
is Captain Dietrich.

We know you're in the cellar.

We are ready to destroy you!

I will spare your
lives on one condition.

That you surrender immediately.

We want the woman.

I repeat, surrender immediately!

We want the woman.

Why? Why?

What do they want from you?

I will give you just two
minutes to clear the building.

Come on. Come on, why?

Sergeant, let's get out
of here. Come, baby!

We can't move her now.

She stays, we go.
That is an order.

I'm not leaving.

Not till I find out
why they want her.

I gave you an order.

Now listen and listen good.

We put our life
on the line for you.

What is it those Germans want?

Tell me.

Tell me. What do they want?

This map.

My husband was
delivering it to the Germans.

He hid it in his boot

until last night.

He gave it to me
for safekeeping.

It's German installations.

Now, Sergeant,
will you come now?

One minute!

Sergeant, I swear I'll kill you.

If you touch her, I'll kill you.

Forty-five seconds.

Thirty seconds.

Fifteen seconds.

Please. Please come, baby.

Why won't you come?

For the love of
heaven, help her.

Help her!

You deal with that cannon.

Hitch, you help over here.
Tully and I'll take the window.

Hold those legs.

Easy. Easy. Easy now.

Sarge!

Let him go.

Sarge, can you?

I never have. Have you?

No.

Then I'll have to, won't I?

Give me your hands.

The big one, Troy.
This could be it.

We're getting help
from somewhere.

Longet?

Yeah, it could be.

Tully, give him a hand.
See if you can cover him.

We're all going to die!

No, no, not before your
baby gets a chance to live.

Hitch.

My gosh, Sarge.

They're moving off, Troy.

What'll I do with it? Hold it.

I hope you wanted a boy.

What's the matter? Haven't
you ever seen a baby?

I would like to
name him after you,

but I do not know your name.

It's Longet. Pierre Longet.

Pierre Longet. That's nice.

Thank you.

All right, let's go.
