ONLY THE BRAVE
Sunday morning, December 7.
I was on a weekend training Hawaiian Territorial Defence in Scofield.
Zero Japanese attacked our P-40 at the airport by up to 7 fleet.
We were an easy target.
Senzaki Steve and I spent the whole night carrying dead and wounded.
On Monday, the FBI came after my father.
He stood in the doorway, Best dressed in a suit.
I was still in uniform ...
covered with blood my colleagues in the Navy.
He shook me and said ...
"Never forget I was born here. "
Then he went away
My father came to Hawaii in 1905 and established a Buddhist temple Hongonji.
When I was little ...
I saw him in a room of meditation, sometimes sitting for several hours.
I asked: "What are you doing here?"
He replied: "I look at another world."
"What a world, Dad?"
I replied: "Do not worry, Jimmy, someday you'll know. "
I thought that this day has come when the army ...
after Pearl Harbor gave us a chance ...
a chance to defend our homes and country.
I thought it was the day where we have landed in Africa
where it first stood against the Third Reich.
I thought it was the day where we have landed in Italy
and began to roll battle for battle.
Only I do not know ...
it is that I have not tried find another world ...
Another world was gone.
Wahiawa, HAWAII, 1953

Prepare to fight in close contact Watch out for snipers.
Mue, find a command post where we can drink.
Forward.
Who leads you into battle?
Yuk was a natural leader.
He demanded respect and showed it to his subordinates.
Zaki I had known since childhood.
He knew what I think even before I thought about it.
and if I needed more firepower ...
Nobody was better than Yes.
-Jimmy! -All right.
Drop your weapon!
Grenade!
Cease fire! Cease fire!
Come here. Come on.
Are you hurt?
Mom and Dad?
Come on, come on.

-Looks like you got the mascot. -Yes.
Does not leave it on the step.
-Where are we? - The best bar in town.
How's your head?
The new helmet?
This helmet Sato.
You're lucky.
You look like Who wants a drink.
Yes, it looks like dog bite to it.
Say what?
Dog ... dog.
A dog bite you? When?
No, this is ...
Forget it.
You say strange things.
You know, let's drink. -Hey ...
Kauai, bring me one of those bottles.
Wait.
-No. -No.
Because the loser won relaunch? Fall.
Thank you.
Leave all worries to us.
-Where is Skipper? -Headquarters.
Fukushima looks bad.
His brother, Dave, has a scratch. The doctor took up Watada.
A fragment of a grenade fragment.
Minami barely escaped.
Rookie off an?
Only a fresh wound.
Hey, it's called "superficial" not fresh.
Why is it called? Superficial wound?
Tell him, Doc.
As the ball just drasnela skin. Not damaged artery or internal organs.
Thank you, Doc.
Better Call the chaplain.
Ichi ...
Get the chaplain.
You have a hard head.
Yes, your helmet adopted most impact.
That is why I said that you were lucky.
How is the situation?
They were well prepared.
You were right. They were waiting for us.
Is this not beautiful?
Heaven.
When changes from orange to red ...
everything seems like it should be.
All right, Freddy?
I love you.
I know. I love you too.
All my cousins are 100 battalion.
I also zaciaglem.
Do you understand me?
when the second and third platoon occurred from behind ...
and the fourth from the west, did not even realize what hit them
Hey, Jimmy, are you okay?
What are the losses?
The second platoon has two dead, and seven wounded.
The third and fourth without a loss.
Germany quickly withdrew today. They had to go east.
Command reports 36 dead enemies and 12 prisoners.
Let's make some money. Let's go.
-Hey, Yuk ... "Yes?"
The sniper had you at gunpoint.
I could not leave there Fukushima.
Podjoles great risk.
I was ready to take that risk.
He acted the same way you, Jimmy.
I'm going to the store, take the ammunition.
-Hey, Yuk ... "Yes?"
We know that you're a tough guy We do not need to prove.
See you soon.
Doc, doc, stopped breathing.
I have seen many times how my people go.
Watched with them to their last breath.
I tried to hold flowing guts.
The arms and legs hanging on pieces of skin and muscle.
They looked at me knowing that death is coming ...
and everyone was looking for, they thought or wanted to be with them ...
were their relatives.
This fear, look for unforgettable moments of life ...
beautiful moments, The last chance to see life.
Do not you tired of reading this over and over again?
No.
How's the arm?
The doctor said that keep my guardian angel.
It was only a fragment grenade.
This is your angel?
It must be unique.
I bought in New Jersey.
I regret that I did not give her him before leaving.
Do not worry, she'll understand.
You think?
Yes.
Hey, Sergeant ...
All right?
Nice ring.
Doc ...
Are you sure you want to do this?
I think so.
I leave it exposed the queen.
Now you're a doctor. You are no longer young.
Henry Kobayashi went. Is 37 years old.
How could you decide without talking to me?
-Good move. -We need you here.
Shah.
You have to learn to play more offensively.
Check mate.
This camp sends 47 volunteers.
Many are from Seattle.
I saw how they grew up.
Involved with their families.
We're your family.
Who will teach me play more offensively?
Doc.
What happened, Jimmy?
Wrong knowledge.
Jesus, I still bleed.
Sit down.
But, Doctor ... -Shut up.
Hey Doc, check whether have a brain.
What are you talking about? He is of Wahiawa, he has no brain.
Shut up. I have a cousin in Wahiawa.
Raise.
He also has no brain?
Who said it was "he"?
pity that it is stupid and ugly. Raise.
You're talking about my cousin.
Sure. Country girl
and her cousin.
It must also be ugly.
As soon as you przywale.
Hey, we play poker or not?
Sergeant, and you?
I lived in the country before I moved to Kalihi, and I was full of pretty girls.
No. I want to know if you enter or not.
I walk.
Sergeant, you have a Japanese name, but do not look Japanese?
My mother is half Filipina and half hawajka.
You are a true hybrid.
This is not funny. My mother is Chinese.
I thought that in this unit serve only the Japanese themselves.
What women do you like? Chinese women, or hawajki FILIPINKI?
Glupolu, my wife is Japanese.
All taste the same. To me it makes no difference.
Girls! Food! Who now falls?
Now it's your turn.
I forgot whose turn.
If you head aches, Take these two.
It's not a headache, Doc.
I'm going to Headquarters, Check out our supplies.
Relax.
Check.
Good rate. Check.
"Check" is not at stake.
-Are you in or not? -I.
Do not think too much, you are no longer in the country.
Shut up. Check.
Full, queen of siódemkach.
-Damn, I have two pair.
Come to daddy.
Pair of tens and a couple of decades.
Skórczybyk!
Now who has a brain?
What do you think, Sergeant? It has a brain or just lucky?
I've never played the boys from Kalihi.
You know who does not play, right?
New game, five cards go.
Are you ready to confess?
in this case give me a drink?
Please reverend. The treats.
Jimmy ...
Mary?
Jimmy.
Mary?
Stay away from me.
Why?
As long as I do not promise anything.
What?
If ever I am lost ...
You'll find me.
Wait ...
Wait!
I promise.
I always find you.
Celebrities. The mist gave way.
What do you look, Sergeant?
I hear the planes. I'm sure it ours.
Since when have you nickname "Falcon's Eye"?
Huh?
Ah, shit.
Excuse me, Sergeant.
Dave, your brother Frank ...
was a good soldier.
Yes. Always ...
I always looked after me with.
My other brother, George is ...
somewhere in the Pacific . I just ...
I've just learned that his ship sank.
You have one brother in the house, right?
Yeah. How do you know?
Frank told me.
His name is Danny.
He was very sciekly because he was not accepted.
He has asthma, so ...
Dave ...
See how the moon shines trees?
Yes.
So I can see you.
Agrees to Sergeant.
I know it is hard ...
but try to have head on his shoulders, okay?
Yes. I'll go a little sleep.
Goodnight, Sergeant.
Good night, Falcon's eye
Hurry. Next.
Move!
Is this our planes?
Funny, is not it?
Jimmy, all right?
Yes.
Hina talking to you?
With every rising of the moon, you see.
With each sunrise, you are born to relaunch.
The rest of the body, preparing for rebirth.
What is it? The old Hawaiian beliefs?
No. I just invented. But it sounds good, right?
Yes.
23h07.
Another world.
My dad told me that this is not something you can see.
It is pure, innocent, everything is good.
It is in us, ready to leave us.
Do not be afraid to look into the darkness ...
to take the next step.
Purely.
About 4 or 5 km.
Guess the name of the ship, who will take us to the mainland.
-What? -S.S. Maui.
Do not talk.
At least one of the gods protect you.
Jimmy, I am mestizo. Do you think that would be fine if I go too?
What are you talking about? My father grew up with your father.
Which is the same as I am Japanese.
-Thoughts? -Always.
Thank you.
-When the Maui sails? -In two weeks.
You with the Territorial Defence, you are always so funny.
Again, the landing was 900m east of the landing zone, over.
Command wants to talk to the team leader. Reception.
I refuse. The commander is dead I am now in command. Reception.
I understood, radio silence until 6:00. Reception.
I understood. The end of the reception.
I think they failed.
Send a group inquiry, Lieutenant?
We can not afford to lose more people.
I give only a proposal sir.
Lieutenant ...
These boys would be raised to the Lord as well as to Captain Ford.
Now you are in command.
Thanks, Sergeant.
We need to conserve ammunition. Forward rest.
Command.
Germany cut off Battalion Texas 41st
5km to the front line.
We got orders to pull them.
Put a medical battalion in the church in the northern part of town.
This is the closest point where to get going.
Is damaged, but big.
-What about the opponent? -There is not an official said.
Texas 141 is nailed on the hill.
We know only that Germany surrounded them.
What do you suggest?
Germany are scattered in the area several kilometers.
Maybe one or two regiments.
How long 1 41 Battalion, is there?
1 43. trying to reach them from 5 days, to no avail.
Will be withdrawn. Now our turn.
As head, Jimmy?
Why do not you wake me?
I said that I did not.
The second battalion went two hours ago.
A third battalion will begin at 4:00 and the first set off to 5.00
The whole regiment?
I thought Colonel gave us two days of rest.
-General changed his mind. -To hear last night.
What happened, Jimmy?
They tried to make the discharges. I heard the aircraft when the fog rose.
Dump failed.
It does not give us much time.
Doc says he needs rest. I agree.
All right.
Jimmy, you're here great sergeants
Let them be your eyes.
All right. A command post set here some 500m away.
Each company will have an artillery observer ...
but do not expect the support of artillery.
See you at the assembly point for 30 minutes.
Sorry, Jimmy.
But I can see better.
Sergeant, this is not the same regiment with which we trained?
No, I think that these are the guests ...
who wanted to fight with us in the city.
Yeah, how is this city called? Hati, or something like that.
Idiot. This was the second division, and the town was called Sparta.
How should I know? All white people look the same.
Texas 141 has problems.
These include the U.S. Army and they need our help.
You have 28 minutes.
Hey, Jimmy, this letter came when I slept.
You see this sign?
SERVE NO COLOUR Only white
As for you, Tojo.
It Takata.
What?
Mistake.
Not Tojo. Only Takata.
I do not think you heard what I said.
We can make them.
Let's go.
But, Sergeant ... -Zaki, come on.
You were lucky.
Lucky, just as we ...
to fight for freedom fight their own battles.
Some are worth stoczenia others do not.
Do not worry so.
Yes, keep food warm. - "Aloha Oe."
-What? -Until we meet again.
One third of our regiment came from an internment camp ...
Where they were detained wszyscty the Japanese from the west coast
Yuk told me that they lost houses, jobs ...
everything they had.
The rest of us came from the islands.
No matter where you came from Hawaii and Mississippi ...
we are all for the same reason ...
and together we return home or we die together.
Hello darling.
Your grandfather is looking for you.
Come on, I'll take you to him.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
How are you, Reverend?
Well, Jimmy. And do you like?
Can I ask you something?
Sure.
When someone dies ...
How many days needed soul to get to heaven?
What kind of Buddhist?
49. It lasts 49 days.
Just as I thought. Thank you, Reverend.
Noszowi brought the dead and wounded from the first line ...
occupy all the beds and stretchers.
Our tanks and trucks could not reach the scene.
Our artillery could not help us.
We learned that Command was right.
Two full regiments, more than 7000 Nazis.
They had more than twice advantage over us.
Hitler wanted to make Teksanczyków example.
Too much approached the FATHERLANDU.
You were with us a very long, Takata?
10 years. Time flies.
The command of the company. They think that you ...
Well, I think that all the Japanese can poison everything.
If you are not exempt.
Sorry, Jimmy.
Cease fire! Cease fire! Cease fire!
-Do you think you will repeat the strike? -I do not know.
Give it a rest guys?
Not half will go to sleep. Make sure that everyone got something to drink and eat.
Ok, sir.
Collect ammunition from the dead and give the money.
Command.
Ends supplies, Lieutenant.
Ammunition?
Let us pray that, although one shot came to us.
What's so funny you, Sergeant?
Well, sir, just a thought ...
You came to the front lines 20 days ago?
22 days.
The fast track to take command.
When I was in North Africa 18 months ago ...
Was assigned the Medical Battalions.
It's been so long?
Every day, reported How many died in battle.
I looked at the body to give face name.
In Italy, I could not do this anymore.
I decided that I want to be part of the living, and not just dead ...
and so I found myself here.
Are you married, Sergeant?
Yes, sir.
I have 3 beautiful daughters in San Antonio.
Taking care of it you could still see them.
Yes, sir.
Sorry. Sorry!
With a name like Grace, you're so kind.
Do not laugh at me.
These are only two simple steps, right?
I know.
I'm next. Not broken him all the fingers.
once, twice ...
Well. Way to go. Finally caught!
So finally I get it!
Yes, Grace, you can get around quite well.
Just because I have a good teacher.
Check the band on his leg!
Do not cut my leg, Doc! Do not cut my leg!
I need clamps.
Tighten the band! I have to take care of his breast.
Remove blood, I see nothing.
"God, Jimmy ... -Hold on Yuk.
Jimmy, get bandages. I think that is the whole artery.
Where is my mother?
Corporal, come and help me!
Frances ...
-Lots of debris. -Gracie ...
This is for you. I did it.
Wow. What is it?
Senninbari.
This is a protective belt.
They did it for the last 6 months for all our soldiers.
Mom took him to all the women in the camp.
Each has done a stitch and provided further until the stitches taken in 1000.
Wear it in battle, around the abdomen.
This is for your protection
These are the ghosts of 1000 loving those who are with you.
You look like you went to the funeral.
Do not say that!
Just kidding.
Come on.
Through it.
But now really gone.
I have a whole regiment, who will look after me.
Okay?
Promise that you'll wear it. Please promise.
Return home safely and well?
I promise.
Dad?
Ah, Jimmy. Nice surprise.
How are you?
What? Worried about me? Are you afraid it will be?
You do not need.
What can you do for me Everything has been done already?
You should go.
Jimmy, now listen to his father.
You must accept your destiny here.
The rest will follow here.
Be strong.
-Time to blackout. -Right.
It's getting late.
I do not want you to go out already.
And your parents?
I thought ...
The point is ... that would spend every day with you.
Me too.
We do not have enough time or days.
He wants to go blurry.
-We can not. -What?
NANCY ... -Why?
Nancy, I do not want you to waiting here ...
to something ...
"I know that you love me. -Yes.
Yes.
It only counts.
Nancy ...
Stay for a night with me.
Nice dream?
Sergeant? We get up?
Only me.
I do not understand.
In an hour, say Suzuki sergeant that I had to leave.
Where are you going?
I filed for you.
Rana shoulder will give you a ticket home.
You need to provide this ring.
Do not tell the doctor until tomorrow.
The world shows what you're small.
War knows the way frogs pick your conscience.
Sometimes, all we are waiting ...
This 3-day rations, full canteen, clean guns ...
and all the ammunition they can carry.
That taught us.
with all of this Texans went.
Time is running out.
-This is the password for today? -I thought so.
It's just, Sgt.
Okay, go.
I thought that you needed help.
And your arm?
Ceased to bleed.
And your leg?
The doctor let me go.
And what's your excuse?
I question the diagnosis?
What are you doing here?
I've always been a member of the company.
Okay. Watada, on the forehead.
Well, Sarge.
Doctor, for me.
Let 's in the column.
What do you have?
The position of the machine gun, 90 meters at the 10th hour
So close?
Is directed away from us in the direction of the hill.
Falcon's Eye, then take with Watada, left flank.
Minami, fire support.
Shoot and throw grenades when they are within our reach.
Doctor, I do not want you to be walking away from here.
Hey what the doctor ...
This gun is able to clean up human from a distance of 360 meters.
I'll stay here.
Sorry.
-Hey, Doc ... "Yes?"
How is Seattle?
Seattle? I have never been. There are nice?
Lots of rain.
But it is green wherever you look.
Lots of trees?
When the weather is nice ...
view of snowy slopes Mount Ranier, the blue sky ...
simply breathtaking.
Thank you, doctor.
During the summer ...
watching as the salmon swim up the river ...
and black bears catching them in the air ...
this must be the most beautiful place on earth.
I think there is more to come.
We only have an hour till dusk.
I think we should relax.
Zabezpieczcie perimeter.
Do you have dreams?
You must be dreaming.
You're talking about night dreams when I sleep?
No, seriously.
Dreaming about us? About our future?
Future?
Is fulfilled All your dreams?
I have to think a moment.
Just kidding.
I do not.
Which tell you dream?
Choose one.
Well ..
Sometimes ...
I dream ...
That we are far away ...
where no one knows ...
and where can we start all over again.
Do you feel lucky?
Sure I am.
But sometimes ...
I would give you more ...
I would like to give you a better life.
Never again do not think so.
I love our life.
Most of the time ...
I dream of you.
Do not you see that?
You're all my life!
Doc?
Excuse me, Doc, asleep?
No.
I ask you some questions?
It looks like Sgt Tact and you're friends, right?
I think so.
He served in Battalion 100.
Yes. He and is a pair of attic timers.
Before the war he served several Hawaii branch of Territorial Defence.
I 100 Battalion suffered heavy losses in Italy.
Some 900th
These boys from Hawaii lost 900 of 1432 people.
Why is it moved?
Watada and I think that 100 battalion has more experience ...
and it takes experienced NCOs Regiment will be more efficient.
Or not.
You talk too much.
Sorry. I was a journalist.
Younger brother Jimmy served in this company.
NCO has done him a favor. He wanted to keep an eye on his brother, but ...
He died in the first battle.
Thank you, Doc.
You're new, right?
Complement. I'm here for two weeks.
Where are you from?
Camp Butte, Gila River, Arizona.
You mean before? I'm from Stockton. This is in California.
Practically the whole city sent to the camp.
Some good news, sir?
My father died.
This is from my wife.
It took almost 2 months it arrived here.
He was in federal prison on Terminal Island.
Prison?
The FBI arrested him after the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Why?
They thought he was a spy.
I've heard of such cases.
The FBI arrested the men throughout the West Coast.
But this is the first case when it comes to Hawaii . What has been accused?
He was a Buddhist priest.
Today 49 days have passed since he is dead.
I know I should not record of such things ...
but if you have recorded I will not remember.
Old habit.
Can I ask another question?
-Many say. -Often I hear it.
Did you ever scared?
Every day.
But not death.
I'm afraid to lose more people.
You were close Nakajo to Sergeant?
Christmas, Jimmy.
I felt as if someone I cut off one of his hands.
Tomorrow will be a tough day. Go better rest.
I can not sleep. Insomnia.
100 battalion of heavy fighting takes place. The second can not move forward.
They will have to dig deeper and the bear.
Germany resist along this road.
We are 500m from the top of the hill.
Which hill?
We have to wait until tomorrow.
General wants a frontal attack.
Sergeant, look who we found.
PORSCHE, Please ...
Hi, rascal.
Sergeant King!

You're the best.
Do not cry. You still need to take some pictures.
I love you.
Go. The audience wants you.
Wahiawa ...

Ah, Richard! Richard!
Sergeant Takata?
Sir.
Lt. Terry, 141 Battalion.
You rescued my people.
I would like to thank you.
Do you have done the same for us.
Without hesitation.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
Ba thine is the kingdom, the power and glory, forever. Amen.
211 rescued guys ...
with the 275th battalion numbering
100 and 442 battalion suffered loss of 800 soldiers.
The generals seem to orders, soldiers must be done.
Somewhere between ...
the rest of us still hope.
God Almighty.
Who is it?
Lt. Teksanczyków.
Tough guy, huh?
What do you think?
I'm glad we did.
Jimmy ...
tell me what to do.
Return to me, Jimmy!
Dad.
Accept your fate.
The rest will follow you.
Freddie wrote to me every week.
He tried to see me before leaving ...
but for some reason, never failed.
I always thought ...
that he does not want to see me.
I think ...
He was afraid that I will just sit and wait for him.
He asked me to marry him before he left.
He told you that?
It was my favorite time of day.
I went to the seaside, wherever he was ...
in order to see the sunset.
I imagined that sits next to me ...
On the other side of the world the sun rose for him.
Joni, this is James Takata. He is a friend of your father.
Hi
You can go have fun.
... I brought you something.
He wanted to give it to you when you return home.
Freddie ...
gave his life for me.
The last thing I could do to bring this ring.
Thank you.
Everything will be fine.
Whose good?
Yes.
My father told me that the Buddhist considering the whole life ...
about how everything that lives is precious.
He also told me that if you choose to fight ...
accept this decision ...
otherwise you look the world with compassion.
In Hawaii, we also found that ...
Whatever you do in life ...
Do it for the next seven generations.
ONLY THE BRAVE
