Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin Vandervoort:
I don't think I have to remind you that this war has been going on for almost 5 years. Over half of Europe has been overrun and occupied. We're comparative newcomers. England's gone through a blitz with a knife at her throat since 1940. I'm quite sure that they, too, are impatient and itching to go. Do I make myself clear? Capt. Harding:
Yes, sir. Quite clear. Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin Vandervoort:
3 million men penned up on this island all over England in staging areas like this. We're on the threshold of the most crucial day of our times. 3 million men out there, keyed up, just waiting for that big step-off. We aren't exactly alone. Notify the men, full packs and equipment 1400 hours. Capt. Harding:
Yes, sir
