Ordinary citizens to 17 00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:26.239 this question answered yes. 18 00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:30.879 This is Cloak and Dagger. 19 00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:54.359 Black warfare, espionage, international intrigue. These are the weapons of 20 00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:59.200 the OSS. Today's adventure, Operation Sellout, is the story of 21 00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.959 an American agent who went into German occupied France to 22 00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:07.280 locate Nazi submarine bases, and is suggested by actual incidents 23 00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:11.000 recorded in the Washington files of the Office of Strategic Services, 24 00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:13.199 a story that can now be told. 25 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:24.080 I knew something was up when Colonel Palmer met Tom 26 00:02:24.120 --> 00:02:27.039 Barnes and me at the dock that night. He hadn't 27 00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:29.520 come down from London just to wish his bon voyage. 28 00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:33.680 There wasn't time for such formalities in the OSS, even 29 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:35.479 when a couple of its agents were embarking for the 30 00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:40.560 coast of Nazi occupied France. None at the Chief pulled 31 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.680 to a stopped. The Colonel stepped into the faint glow 32 00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:45.400 of the blackout life Captain Dagger. 33 00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:48.879 Yes, sir, this is the radio operator. Captain. That's right, 34 00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:52.719 So I'm Bond Blans Corporal Bond Sussex. Gods, you men 35 00:02:52.759 --> 00:02:55.439 are all set, Yes, sir. We shove off in twenty 36 00:02:55.479 --> 00:02:59.599 minutes and he'll put you ashore below Santas just before dawn. 37 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:04.319 After you've been landed, you'll move inland exactly six kilometers. 38 00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:07.599 You'll be met there by an agent of the Marquis. 39 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:13.759 Understand I men. 40 00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:17.240 We got a lecture then, and we didn't need it. 41 00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:22.800 We knew our mission was important. German submarines and hitting 42 00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:27.560 our convoys and the Atlantic hitting them hard. Shipping losses 43 00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:29.759 had to be cut and the best way to cut 44 00:03:29.759 --> 00:03:33.719 them was to blast the Nazi subpens along the French coast. Understand, 45 00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.560 it was my job to locate the biggest pens. It 46 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.319 was Tom's job to radio the information back to England, 47 00:03:39.680 --> 00:03:41.719 so the Allied air forces with no where to lay 48 00:03:41.759 --> 00:03:45.560 their eggs. No, we didn't need any lecture and how 49 00:03:45.599 --> 00:03:46.560 important it was. 50 00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:49.439 You're not listening. 51 00:03:49.800 --> 00:03:53.240 Oh, I'm sorry, colonel. I heard it all in London 52 00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:56.800 two days ago, Sir. I was wondering why you came 53 00:03:56.840 --> 00:03:57.800 down here to say it again. 54 00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:01.280 And they've had another reason for coming down. That's what 55 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:07.599 we figure, Sir. There's been a change and plans slight one. Yes, 56 00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:11.560 Originally you two were the one to take this mission alone. 57 00:04:12.120 --> 00:04:15.360 I've decided now to send a third man with you. 58 00:04:16.399 --> 00:04:17.079 Who is it, sir? 59 00:04:17.759 --> 00:04:20.560 I'd rather say nothing about it till you see him. 60 00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:26.680 He'll be something of a surprise to you, perhaps surpriser, yes, 61 00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:30.399 though not too unpleasant one. I hope your reaction to 62 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:32.680 him may well determine the success of your mission. 63 00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:36.120 I afraid I don't understand, Colonel. 64 00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:37.920 You will admit it. He's already on the boat. 65 00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:43.120 Hold on, Tom and I followed the Colonel an on Doc. 66 00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.160 The British Navy torpedo boat that was going to take 67 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.279 us across the channel lay in the water, black shadow 68 00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.920 on the Black Knight. We climbed the board, stowed our 69 00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:56.680 gear on Dick, who called the Ford Cavin. Tom and 70 00:04:56.720 --> 00:05:00.839 I exchanged looks. Neither of us like this a slight 71 00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:02.079 change and plans. 72 00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:03.639 Your new man is in here, Captain. 73 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:07.319 Let's have a look at him, Colonel. For a moment, 74 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:09.399 the bright lights of the cabin spilling out on the 75 00:05:09.439 --> 00:05:13.879 deck blinded me. Then I saw him. First I thought 76 00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:17.199 it was a gag until the guy turned, until he 77 00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:20.120 made a stiff bow from the waist, until he said, 78 00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:23.480 good evening, gentlemen. I'm looking Carl Mulla of the German 79 00:05:23.480 --> 00:05:27.720 ice Fair, and I knew it wasn't a gag. He 80 00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:30.399 belonged in that uniform he was wearing. It was all 81 00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:33.279 his every Nazi stitch of it, right up to the 82 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:35.319 Death's head in signy on his left shoulder. 83 00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:39.519 EMLA, this is Captain LINCD. Dagger and this is a 84 00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:41.920 couple of Bonds of the British Army and detached service 85 00:05:41.920 --> 00:05:42.600 with the OSS. 86 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.759 It is a pleasure to meet you, gentlemen, is it? Oh? 87 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:51.879 Palmer May Bonds and I speak to you alone? 88 00:05:52.439 --> 00:05:52.759 All right? 89 00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:54.759 I will go out on deck. 90 00:05:57.439 --> 00:05:58.120 Wellan. 91 00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.399 Although we have to say it, Sir, you must know 92 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:01.319 how we feel about this. 93 00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:03.480 I'll say a link So. 94 00:06:03.680 --> 00:06:05.439 I don't like the idea of taking a jerry with 95 00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:06.639 us in the Nazi territory. 96 00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:09.360 Do we have to do it? 97 00:06:09.439 --> 00:06:12.879 Colonel, you volunteered for this mission, Bonds. You don't have 98 00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:14.680 to do anything. Here's a degger and I can do 99 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:16.839 the job. So without a Jerry, even do it faster 100 00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:19.720 with him, Corporal, and we've got to start hitting those 101 00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:23.639 subvents as quickly as possible. Meller will be valuable to 102 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.959 you in obtaining information from his former fellow officers. 103 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:29.439 Must have a lot of faith in this Nazisir. 104 00:06:29.480 --> 00:06:31.560 He's not a Nazi, He's a German. 105 00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:33.920 Is there a difference? 106 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:35.199 Yes? 107 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:37.319 Even when he was an officer in one of Hitler's 108 00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:38.680 Pet Division's colonels. 109 00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:41.639 Through no choice of his own, Daggat, Meller was captured 110 00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:44.040 by the British North Africa two years ago. He's been 111 00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:47.000 working as an interpreter for the OSS for eighteen months. 112 00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:50.759 He's been thoroughly screened. We have faith in his story 113 00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:52.839 that he's always been opposed to Hitler. 114 00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:55.079 Wellly, he could have been lying to you, sir, just 115 00:06:55.160 --> 00:06:57.439 waiting for a chance like this, a chance to get 116 00:06:57.480 --> 00:06:58.720 back to German territory. 117 00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:00.839 It could have been. We don't think it was. 118 00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:02.399 Yeah, But if he were, Sir, Bonds and I are 119 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.240 a couple of dead ducks. He'll sell us out the 120 00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:05.480 minute we get across the channel. 121 00:07:06.439 --> 00:07:10.399 That's quite true, Daggett. And that's the chance you'll both 122 00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:11.040 have to take. 123 00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.639 We could have backed out, but we didn't. You never do. 124 00:07:22.120 --> 00:07:26.360 So we headed across the channel, one Englishman, one American, 125 00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:30.759 and one German. I don't know what the German was thinking. 126 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.759 He didn't say much, but the Englishman and the American 127 00:07:33.800 --> 00:07:35.639 were thinking it was going to be a one way trip. 128 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:43.240 Just before dawn, the torpedo boat put us ashore below 129 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.800 Santa's Air He stood listening to a motors die away, 130 00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:51.079 and I turned and walked up to Lieutenant Calm Mueler. 131 00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:54.759 I lifted his lugo out of its holster, and he 132 00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:58.879 didn't say a word. I broke the gun open. Were 133 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:01.399 twelve rounds in the cliff in one shell in the chamber. 134 00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:04.120 I dropped the clip in my pocket and handed the 135 00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:07.160 gun back to him, the shell still in it. Down here, 136 00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.680 cap Bedine, you'll learn I left you one shell. If 137 00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:15.160 anything goes wrong, you may need it. That is, if 138 00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:16.560 you're on a level, I. 139 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.079 Will usually thought myself, rather than fall into the hands 140 00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:19.759 of the Nazis. 141 00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.480 Yeah, I know you will if you're on the level. 142 00:08:23.439 --> 00:08:25.680 If you're not, though, you'll think twice about using it 143 00:08:25.680 --> 00:08:29.480 on us. See you, you couldn't get both of us 144 00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:36.080 with one shell, understand Yeah, I understand. Here, cap be Diane. 145 00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:41.360 It was just a phony gesture. Of course. He knew 146 00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:43.600 as well as I did that it didn't mean a thing. 147 00:08:44.600 --> 00:08:47.600 The country was occupied by a half million of his countrymen. 148 00:08:47.919 --> 00:08:50.320 He could wipe us out like stepping an up bug 149 00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:55.879 if he wanted it too. Dawn was breaking and he 150 00:08:55.960 --> 00:08:59.320 left the beach. He started inland to keep Irondezvou with 151 00:08:59.360 --> 00:09:01.639 Philippe monte Hand and my key agent, who was to 152 00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:04.919 set us up with a base of operations. We must 153 00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:08.600 have made quite a picture. Two men dressed as French peasants, 154 00:09:08.720 --> 00:09:13.120 trudging along behind a Nazi officer. He kept to the 155 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:15.720 fields and moved along hedge rows as much as we could. 156 00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:20.559 And then we came to a highway. German army Laurie 157 00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:22.600 rumbled by while we squatted behind the hedge row and 158 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:23.320 held our breath. 159 00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:33.759 That's all cleonomic. 160 00:09:34.399 --> 00:09:39.440 Yeah, yeah, we'll cross one at a time. You first knew, yeah, yeah, 161 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:48.399 could be dead. He got over the hedge row and 162 00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.159 out onto the highway. It was halfway across. Tom and 163 00:09:52.200 --> 00:09:54.840 I straighten up to follow him, and we saw it. 164 00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:58.559 We dropped down again. A German reconnaissance car swinging around 165 00:09:58.559 --> 00:10:03.639 the bend in the road, stopped a few feet from Muler. 166 00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:08.639 He looked at the Nazis, He looked at him. 167 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:09.600 We looked at. 168 00:10:09.559 --> 00:10:12.840 Both of them through the hedge row and waited. 169 00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:16.399 Ida I hit that. 170 00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:20.840 It was in the lift of his voice. It was 171 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:24.399 in a smile on his face. There was no mistaking it. 172 00:10:24.879 --> 00:10:30.840 Hal Mueller was back with his buddies. Hal Muler was home. 173 00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.279 I think let's get away from her, make a run 174 00:10:37.320 --> 00:10:38.240 for a long hedgerow. 175 00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:40.799 For what he tips off those crowds. We won't get 176 00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:41.399 ten feet. 177 00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:44.200 Yes, I guess you're right. 178 00:10:46.039 --> 00:10:54.279 Well, if we go, I'm taking Jerry with us. 179 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:58.200 I'd had the same idea. I had already sneaked my 180 00:10:58.200 --> 00:11:01.000 revolver out of my coat. We drew a bead on 181 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:04.120 that stiff Prussian back, and we did some all waiting, 182 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:18.480 crouching and waiting until I hit now, all right here, capitan, 183 00:11:19.159 --> 00:11:20.679 it is safe for you to come out. 184 00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:21.039 Now. 185 00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.120 We went out, but not before it exchanged another whisper, 186 00:11:26.759 --> 00:11:29.159 not before Barnes said what we were both thinking. 187 00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:33.600 Maybe the Colonel was right ling, maybe the jetty is 188 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:38.399 on the square, or maybe he's just smarter than we thought. 189 00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:42.519 What do you mean, smart enough to use us for bait? 190 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:45.759 That was it? 191 00:11:46.080 --> 00:11:49.519 Bait? Why get rid of us so fast? We weren't 192 00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.000 that important. He could get rid of us whenever he 193 00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:55.159 wanted to, and he'd only wanted to after we'd served 194 00:11:55.159 --> 00:11:58.399 his purpose, after we'd jeopardized the French my quy by 195 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:02.480 exposing them to him. Yes, after we'd sent a lot 196 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:07.120 of Yankee and British flyers to their death join Mueller 197 00:12:07.159 --> 00:12:11.759 and continued on to our rendezvous point. There's nothing I 198 00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:14.399 could do about it. You'll have been as signed as 199 00:12:14.440 --> 00:12:16.840 a member of the mission. So if I'd acted like one. 200 00:12:17.559 --> 00:12:21.000 You don't knock off a fellow agent unless you're sure. 201 00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:26.840 All right, link, We'll just six kilometers east of the beach. 202 00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:30.080 Now, yeah, yeah, this patch of woods must be the place. 203 00:12:31.000 --> 00:12:33.080 What do we do now here, Capitaine? Nothing? 204 00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:38.320 Just wait, wait for what? Monsieur stepped out from. 205 00:12:38.159 --> 00:12:41.840 Behind a bush as silently as a shadow. But shadows 206 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:43.480 don't carry Tommy guns. 207 00:12:43.919 --> 00:12:47.080 You were expecting someone, Monsieur. 208 00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:49.679 Yeah, man named Philippe Martan. 209 00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:52.279 I am Philippe. 210 00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:54.919 Then you know who we are now. 211 00:12:54.840 --> 00:12:57.720 I'm afraid not, monsieur. If there were two of you, 212 00:12:57.799 --> 00:12:58.360 I would. 213 00:12:58.240 --> 00:12:59.919 Know, but not three. 214 00:13:00.279 --> 00:13:03.960 There was a last minute change of plans. 215 00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:05.960 A very great change, since it made room for a 216 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:06.840 Nazi officer. 217 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:10.320 Look, not all men who wear Nazi uniforms a Nazi officer, true, Monsieur. 218 00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:12.919 But old frenchmen know are Nazi when they see one 219 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:16.679 ino out of uniform. Why is this man here? 220 00:13:17.799 --> 00:13:20.600 Tommy gun was shoving in a Mula's chest. I had 221 00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.559 to talk fast. I explained who the German was. I said, 222 00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:26.000 the OSS trusted. 223 00:13:25.720 --> 00:13:30.360 Him, the OSS made passed him, Monsieur, but I passed 224 00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:31.000 no German. 225 00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:33.600 That makes no difference.

She 250 00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.879 was a beautiful one too. I wouldn't have had a 251 00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:04.039 look at herd and lord and only have had a 252 00:15:04.039 --> 00:15:07.440 look at that Tom Barnes, as a brother, introduced her. 253 00:15:07.639 --> 00:15:12.120 This is my sister, Marie, monsieur Marie, Captain Daggett, go 254 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:20.080 for Barnes and and hell late a germ here teller. 255 00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:23.279 Mueller is a prisoner of war, mademoiselle working for the USS. 256 00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:26.360 He is a Nazi, an X Nazi, Mademoiselle. 257 00:15:26.879 --> 00:15:29.279 The only X Nazis are dead ones. 258 00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:34.720 Philip, throw this pig out of here, mademoiselle.

In as much as 263 00:15:45.480 --> 00:15:48.480 Muella is just leaving for Santa's Air on a mission, you. 264 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:52.559 Are sending him on a mission.

In as much as Mule is 271 00:16:08.080 --> 00:16:10.759 just leaving for Santa's Air on a mission, you are. 272 00:16:10.679 --> 00:16:14.759 Sending him on a mission. You must be out of 273 00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:17.360 your mind, Cabite. 274 00:16:17.799 --> 00:16:20.960 I think she has a point link. You remember that 275 00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:24.639 little discussion we had back on the highway about bait. Yeah, 276 00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:27.679 I remember, Tan, And I'm pretty sure now that we 277 00:16:27.679 --> 00:16:29.519 were right. We have no more proof now than we 278 00:16:29.559 --> 00:16:30.039 did then. 279 00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:33.600 I would rather he would stay here, Capitel, than see 280 00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:34.600 him go on a mission. 281 00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:42.000 Well, here, Capitaine, get going, you'll learn. 282 00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:45.919 Sastan. 283 00:16:47.519 --> 00:16:49.399 You will hear from me here Capitaine. 284 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:55.159 We you will hear from him through the Gestapo. 285 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:02.360 I wasn't sure she was wrong, and Tom Barnes was 286 00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:06.839 sure she was right. But then Tom's judgment wasn't to 287 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:15.759 be trusted, not where Marie my town was concerned. Well, Tom, 288 00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:17.319 where you've been? Oh? 289 00:17:17.359 --> 00:17:22.200 I took a walk with Marie down Mother Brook. 290 00:17:23.480 --> 00:17:26.119 You take a lot of walks with Marie, don't you. 291 00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:27.200 Why not? 292 00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:30.599 There's nothing to do but cool our heels until we 293 00:17:30.599 --> 00:17:35.640 hear from Mulla, And quite frankly, old man, I can't 294 00:17:35.640 --> 00:17:38.960 think of anybody I'd rather cool my heels with. 295 00:17:41.759 --> 00:17:44.519 And then we heard from Mueller. We heard quite a 296 00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:47.200 lot from him, and not through the Gestapo either. You 297 00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:50.720 must copy these maps immediately, her capitan. I must get 298 00:17:50.720 --> 00:17:54.160 them back to the Nazi headquarters before morning. You will 299 00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:57.680 find on them the location of the Nazi subpins from 300 00:17:57.680 --> 00:18:05.240 San Jasea to Dunkirk. I copied the maps and deciphered 301 00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:07.720 the code symbols. Turned my report over to Tom to 302 00:18:07.759 --> 00:18:10.440 transmit to England. But Tom was stubborn. How do you 303 00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:12.880 know those maps weren't fatling? I don't. 304 00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:15.160 Maybe Mula's using us just the way we thought here. 305 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:15.720 Maybe he is. 306 00:18:15.759 --> 00:18:16.400 And why on else? 307 00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:18.440 Said that's tough, because those are my orders and I'm going. 308 00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:20.039 To obey them. 309 00:18:20.480 --> 00:18:27.680 Send it Tom, we'll see what happens. Well, we saw 310 00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:31.799 what happened that night off in the distance of thousand 311 00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:36.000 searchlights stamped the sky, when black puffs and smoke everywhere, 312 00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:38.359 the truants were throwing up a curtain of flect that 313 00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:45.440 no air force and the whole world could penetrate. Next day, 314 00:18:45.599 --> 00:18:49.079 Mueller came back to the barn. By then Tom had 315 00:18:49.079 --> 00:18:50.720 received the box score from England. 316 00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:55.119 Twenty planes. You hear that, Murea, we lost twenty planes 317 00:18:55.200 --> 00:18:55.640 last night. 318 00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:59.000 I do not understand here, Corporate. 319 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:02.319 Oh no, oh, you don't understand it at all, do you? 320 00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:05.119 They knew we were coming. They were waiting for us. 321 00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:06.559 But you don't understand it. 322 00:19:07.599 --> 00:19:11.359 You are implying, of course, that I betrayed you. But 323 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:12.279 I give you my word. 324 00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:17.359 He is the word. I'm a Nazi. Are you perhaps 325 00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:18.079 convinced now? 326 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:20.240 I told you we should have listened to hurling easy? 327 00:19:22.200 --> 00:19:24.960 It is too late, of course to save those twenty planes. 328 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:28.119 It is not too late to stop other. 329 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:33.240 Raids, because of course he's righting Al Radio Colonel Palmer, 330 00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:34.920 this minute. 331 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:40.559 Capitane, Well Muller, I am, I have another map. 332 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:42.799 If you wish to look at. 333 00:19:42.680 --> 00:19:48.880 It, all right, let's see it. I am. I would 334 00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:51.119 prefer the show it to you alone. 335 00:19:51.920 --> 00:19:56.079 Alone? Why you pick up a German? 336 00:19:56.920 --> 00:19:57.200 Come? 337 00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:00.000 Are you suggesting there's anyone help but yourself? Will come? 338 00:20:00.200 --> 00:20:02.640 Trusted Lord Mula, You're in no position to make such 339 00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:05.759 a request. You have something to show me you can 340 00:20:05.799 --> 00:20:12.000 show to me here, very well, here, Capitane. He had 341 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.640 something to show me, all right, A detailed shot of 342 00:20:14.680 --> 00:20:17.480 the biggest sub pens along the whole coast. I knew 343 00:20:17.519 --> 00:20:19.839 it was worth any risk to try to smash those pens, 344 00:20:20.279 --> 00:20:22.839 but Tom Barnes didn't know it. He needed a lot 345 00:20:22.839 --> 00:20:26.039 of convincing. He insisted that shot was bait, just bait. 346 00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:32.599 It turned out he was right. Next week was a nightmare. 347 00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:39.920 Eight Plansas, ten, six at Cherbourg, nine, at Lahare. Everywhere 348 00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:43.319 we struck the crowds while waiting operations sell out. Tom 349 00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:46.839 and I called it. We had a name for Lighten. 350 00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:52.160 At Muler two, Tom wasn't around at night. I reached 351 00:20:52.160 --> 00:20:56.960 a decision. I went looking for him down by the brook. 352 00:20:57.000 --> 00:21:01.480 Of course it was a bright moon. I saw two 353 00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:06.200 figures as I approached. Then two figures became one for 354 00:21:06.279 --> 00:21:06.680 a moment. 355 00:21:09.319 --> 00:21:11.279 I love you, Marie. 356 00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:17.160 Oh shit, you must not say it in once today 357 00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:19.400 there's no place for the word love. 358 00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:25.440 Maybe not madame, But when the water is over, I'm 359 00:21:25.440 --> 00:21:29.240 going to ask you to marry Tom Link. 360 00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:30.559 What are you doing here? 361 00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.200 Get back to the barn. Want you radio Palma to 362 00:21:33.279 --> 00:21:34.240 call off the raids. 363 00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:37.200 At last you have come to your stensis capita. 364 00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:39.799 What about Mueler? I think we'll forget Mueller. It's almost 365 00:21:39.799 --> 00:21:41.519 a week since we heard from him. You don't even 366 00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:42.240 know where he is. 367 00:21:42.599 --> 00:21:46.240 But we can guess no capital. He is in Berlin, 368 00:21:46.400 --> 00:21:49.079 probably receiving a medal from his. 369 00:21:49.119 --> 00:21:56.480 Spir Tom and I had to work fast. Once it done. 370 00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:58.519 On the Germans that there'd be no more rage. They'd 371 00:21:58.519 --> 00:22:02.039 be after us. Radioed the Colonel canceling the raids, telling 372 00:22:02.119 --> 00:22:04.680 him we thought our mission was over. Six hours later 373 00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:10.240 came the answer. The colonel thought otherwise, Good lord, we 374 00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:13.880 can't be serious. Link, Hey, serious? All right? He still 375 00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:16.720 wants to smash those subpins at Sander's Air. Since they 376 00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:17.920 couldn't do it from the air, they're going to do 377 00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:26.759 it from the ground with a commando raid. Yeah, commando raid, 378 00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:29.640 a hit and run attack where coordination and split second 379 00:22:29.640 --> 00:22:31.920 timing were everything. Tom and I were to be the 380 00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:32.599 inside man. 381 00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:33.920 Big job. 382 00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:37.680 Yeah, but this time we didn't have two strikes against us. No, 383 00:22:38.319 --> 00:22:41.440 because this was one clam bake that Carl Mueller wouldn't 384 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.480 know anything about. What do we do? First, Link contact 385 00:22:45.480 --> 00:22:47.880 the local leader of the my key, Well, let him 386 00:22:47.880 --> 00:22:49.640 know what's happening and he'll give us a safer place 387 00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:50.119 to roost. 388 00:22:50.519 --> 00:22:52.759 But how do we contact him? Philip w know him, 389 00:22:53.000 --> 00:22:57.200 Philip's and Van. How about Marie? 390 00:22:57.519 --> 00:23:05.279 She might know too, Right, go get her? He went 391 00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.519 to find Maria. I packed up the radio and the 392 00:23:07.519 --> 00:23:10.799 other equipment. I heard the door open me. I thought 393 00:23:10.799 --> 00:23:14.519 he brought it back. I was wrong. Good evening, hair 394 00:23:14.559 --> 00:23:17.839 capy Taine Muller. I didn't expect you to show your 395 00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:20.400 face around here again. I heard in Santa say that 396 00:23:20.400 --> 00:23:21.759 their aids have been canceled. 397 00:23:22.240 --> 00:23:24.079 So if you and corporate bonds might be on your 398 00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:25.960 way back to England, we're packing now. 399 00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:31.079 Oh I am not to go back with you. Then 400 00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:34.759 there's only one place you are going, Muler. 401 00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:36.160
