Bridge at Remagen1969

General Shinner:
We're not going to blow that bridge, Barnes, we're going to take it!

Major Barnes:
Take it?

General Shinner:
As long as it's still standing, we've got a chance. When we get out there, cut every wire and cable. Dent, alert HQ. Ask 'em to give us every available unit on the double.

Col. Dent:
Yessir.

Major Barnes:
Jesus, sir. I mean, I hate to think of our men in the middle of the bridge when they blow it.

General Shinner:
It's a crapshoot, Major. Take that bridge and we shorten the war. We're risking a hundred men, but we may save 10,000 -- even 50,000! It's your chance to make history, Major! What you've got to do is throw your men across. Now, Major!
