00:00The End
00:30Positions!
00:33Positions!
00:40Keep down.
00:42Man, stay down.
00:44How many are there?
00:46More than us, that's for sure.
00:49Rebels?
00:51Lay down your arms, Rebels, or you're all deadmen!
00:56Don't fire unless fired upon!
01:00But if they want war, let it begin here.
01:30Let's give it another try.
01:37We've been pulling for two hours, sir. That stump's not gonna come out.
01:42I'll give you the signal.
01:45I tried, Cassie.
01:50Mr. Washington! Mr. Washington!
01:52What's the trouble? What's wrong?
01:55It's war, ma'am!
01:57The British fired on Lexington!
02:00We need Mr. Washington!
02:02I humbly accept your call.
02:15I will lead this army.
02:19But I beg that each of you will remember.
02:29I do not think myself equal to this command.
02:34As for the pay you have offered me,
02:39I cannot accept it.
02:43To serve is honor enough.
02:48I love this country.
02:50I love my country.
02:53I love my country.
02:57I love my country.
03:01I love my country.
03:04Good!
03:05Okay.
03:06Move it up.
03:07All due respect, General...
03:08If I knew you were gonna put all these cannons in place in one night,
03:12all due respect general if i knew you were going to put all these cannons in place in one night
03:22i never would have brought them it'll be worth it general nox in the morning it'll all be worth it
03:42a message for you general how
04:01they must have worked through the night
04:03give out the orders all soldiers are to board ship and leave the city you mean leave without
04:17even firing a shot i mean retreat lieutenant and prepare to attack i'll finish washington for good
04:33so
04:53oh
05:03Come on, sir.
05:33General Washington, sir.
05:52This just came from Philadelphia.
06:03That should keep the British away for a while.
06:12I have to admit, I didn't think it was possible, but that's the last one, General.
06:19Ain't a boat left on the British side.
06:22Good work, General Glover.
06:23Get some rest now, both of you.
06:57Put that thing away.
07:03I hope we're not here too long.
07:05No longer than January 1.
07:09You... you know that for a fact?
07:12That's when my enlistment ends.
07:14But we won't have won the war by then.
07:17Boy, we ain't never gonna whip the Redcoats.
07:24Come New Year's Day, I'm cashing out and heading for home.
07:28And if you want to live to see the spring, you'll do likewise.
07:34Now, let me get this straight.
07:38It took me a week to get those boats across...
07:42...so the Redcoats wouldn't come over and rip us to pieces.
07:45Am I right so far?
07:46Stop me if I ain't right.
07:48You're right.
07:50Now, you want me to take the whole army back across...
07:54...so you can attack the aforementioned larger foe?
07:58That's right.
07:58Is he fighting the same war as us?
08:02We have no other choice, General Glover.
08:05In a week, half of this army will be free to go home.
08:09And most of them probably will.
08:11Because Congress just ran out of money.
08:15No soldier fights for free.
08:18Unless...
08:20...we have a victory.
08:23I'm with you, General Washington.
08:26Let's go get them.
08:45Watch how you stand now, soldier.
08:48This is a boat, not a wagon.
09:10It's an army of 1,500 or so.
09:13Oh, Hessians.
09:15Germans hired by the British.
09:18All right, Henry.
09:19You know what to do.
09:38What is this?
09:43Americanarian.
09:50Henry.
09:52Not yet, General.
09:59Henry.
10:00I'm working on it, General.
10:07Henry.
10:09Ready, sir.
10:11Fire!
10:11Poor souls.
10:36Poor souls.
10:38Soon my country will enter this fall, General Washington.
10:45And our suffering will be over.
10:48I hope so, Lafayette.
10:51I dearly hope so.
10:53Thank you very much.
11:20general washington your wife sends a message she'll be here in a few weeks
11:35thank you alexander also your belongings have arrived sir
11:41we'll get everything moved inside at least you'll have a warm bed to sleep in tonight
11:48don't bother sir i'll move in when all the soldiers huts are finished
11:53that could take weeks sir thank you for your report alexander henry
12:01washington can do only two things well
12:17lose and retreat i disagree his victories at trenton and princeton were pure genius
12:28but where is washington now mr lawrence spending another winter in the snow while the british sit
12:38comfortably in our capital city let me remind you mr conway general washington is commander-in-chief
12:49your job as inspector general is to make sure he and his troops are well trained and well supplied
12:56i suggest you get out to valley forge and help mr washington find a way to win this war
13:15i want to see the men in training with their guns
13:32you'll have to wait a week until they finish the huts mr washington my experience tells me that
13:40the men must be drilled day and night no matter what the cost the cost is death general i hardly
13:49believe mr conway to put it plainly i don't care what you believe and why congress appointed you to
13:55such a high position when you obviously disapprove of me is a mystery i think general that i think you
14:02can best do your job by writing back to your board of war and telling them that we're starving ask them
14:09how they expect to win this war when their soldiers are too weak to stand
14:25as soon as i get my pay i'm leaving getting out of here before it's me they're burying
14:41supply wagon oh it's spoiled so's the fish
14:55supply wagon that does it
15:14uh president lawrence has asked me for a report on your trip to valley forge
15:18quite successful i was forced to rebuke washington for failing to drill his men
15:27all i get from valley forge are complaints
15:32they say i'm not sending enough food washington's men have no heart
15:39so you don't suggest to increase the supply
15:42supply no i think not what they need is a bit more determination

16:08you are my present martha
16:15eleven men died today
16:19three thousand are confined to their beds

17:44I don't know.
18:142,000 soldiers dead at a time when no battles are being fought.
18:34Once again, Washington has failed.
18:382,000 soldiers dead at a time when no battles are being fought.
18:44This is my resignation.
18:46Sign it.
18:48I refuse. My nation needs me.
18:51You're conniving, Mr. Conway.
18:55It has cost this nation the best blood it has to offer.
19:00You should feel lucky I don't push to have you hanged.
19:04Now sign.
19:06You know, that German fellow that Benjamin Franklin sent to drill the troops...
19:14Von Steuben.
19:15He's Prussian.
19:17Oh, well, wherever he's from.
19:19The soldiers like him.
19:21Hold on, hold on.
19:24Hamilton, come.
19:28Where are your swords?
19:31I'm sorry, Major. I only understand French.
19:34Where are these bayonets?
19:39Oh, where are their bayonets?
19:43Yes, yes.
19:44We don't use them for fighting.
19:46We use them for digging holes, making fire pits.
19:50Uh...
19:52He uses them for digging holes.
19:55Ah!
20:00Horsetong!
20:02I will teach you how to use the bayonet.
20:05I will teach you how to use the bayonet.
20:09We will train with you tomorrow's night.
20:15We will drill with it from morning till night.
20:20When we will finish this training,
20:23you will be the best army that this continent will never have.
20:28We will be the greatest army this continent has ever seen.
20:35He's got their minds off their stomachs.
20:40General Washington! General Washington!
20:43General Washington!
20:45Uniforms from my country!
20:47France will fight with us.
20:50France will enter the war.
20:57Present here to Skaver!
21:01Skaver!
21:07Skaver!
21:10Skaver!
21:13Skaver!
21:14Ha, ha, ha.
21:15Mmmmm.
21:16Wunderbar.
21:21First, we'll attack with a battalion of 5,000.
21:25We'll make them think that's all we've got.
21:28But then I'll bring up the second battalion.
21:31General Lee, the honor of leading the attack falls to you.
21:35I dislike your plan, General Washington.
21:40What's to dislike?
21:42They're running from us.
21:44We've got them exactly where we want them.
21:49You forget, General Washington.
21:52I was once an officer in the British Army.
21:55I understand their ways.
21:57They're far superior in every way to our little army.
22:01Then I will lead them.
22:04Very well, Lafayette.
22:07Monmouth Courthouse, then, at dawn.
22:09Excuse me. Wait just a minute.
22:12You're not going to let an inexperienced officer...
22:16Experience is second to courage in this war, General Lee.
22:21I have plenty of both, I assure you.
22:24I will lead the 1st Battalion.
22:27It is my right as a general.
22:31It's all right.
22:31I prefer to be with you, General Washington.
22:44There.
22:45The dust is rising.
22:48Lee's begun.
22:49Let's move.
22:50General Washington, sir.
22:52Down there.
22:53Wait here for my signal.
23:02What's happening, General Lee?
23:04Why all this confusion?
23:06Sir.
23:07Sir, I...
23:08Why are you retreating?
23:10I...
23:11I'm used to better soldiers.
23:14I was forced to retreat.
23:16To the back, General Lee.
23:17I warned you against this attack.
23:21You shouldn't have undertaken it unless you were willing to see it through.
23:24To the back!
23:28Premier batterie, commencez.
23:30First battery, prepare to fire.
23:33Commencez.
23:34Fire!
23:35Fall in line, men.
23:44This revolution is no longer running.
23:47Fall in line!

25:00Well, gentlemen, we've come a long way.
25:04I shall miss you, each of you.
25:11I'm not very good at such things, so if you'll excuse me, I've written a few words.
25:25This war has turned me into an old man.
25:34The war has turned me into an old man.
25:42The war has turned me into an old man.
25:46It's a long way to defend my own man.
25:49It's the only way you can take my own watch.
25:59I don't know, I don't know.
26:29Merry Christmas, Martha.
26:40George!
26:59Merry Christmas, Martha.
27:29Here I stand on sacred ground, home to me, so dear and free, the sweetest sound I've ever heard, is liberty.
27:47And high the price, the sacrifice, made for me, willingly, our fathers died, our mothers cried, for liberty.
28:09I'll raise this gift for all to see, gratefully, reverently.
28:21I'll give my life, or live my life, for liberty, for liberty.
28:37I'll give my life, or live my life, for liberty.
