美国遭到了突袭 America comes under attack.
来自纽约州北部的农村小伙儿阿奇·斯威尼 An upstate New York farm boy Archie Sweeney
踏上了前往北非对德作战的征程 ships out to fight the Germans in North Africa.
战列舰和驱逐舰走Z字形护送着我们 We have battleships and destroyers escorting us,
以防德军U型潜艇发现我们的行踪 zigging and zagging to keep the U-boats from picking up our trail.
现在我真希望自己会游泳 Now I wish I had learned how to swim.
而前大学前篮球队主力查尔斯·舍费尔 While former college basketball standout Charles Scheffel
得知他将和英军配合 learns he will be battling Hitler's forces
对抗希特勒的武装力量 in coordination with the British.
我去见了准将 I went to see the brigadier.
他说"我们要进军北非" He said, "We're going to make the invasion, on North Africa."
在太平洋战场 战地记者理查德·特里加斯基斯 And in the Pacific, combat reporter Richard Tregaskis
和陆战队亲历了对瓜岛的首次进攻 experiences his first invasion with the Marines on Guadalcanal.
狙击手们无处不在 却又无迹可寻 Snipers are everywhere and nowhere.
一有风吹草动 哨兵就立刻开火 The sentries are firing at every noise.
天知道那边是什么情况 Who knows what's out there?
请赐予我们一个共同的信念—— "Grant us a common faith
人类应该安享富足与和平 that man shall know bread and peace
四年
应该沐浴公平与正义 that he shall know justice and righteousness,
自由与安全 freedom and security,
十二个人
拥有平等的机会 an equal opportunity and an equal chance
来实现自我 to do his best,
这不仅要在我们的土地上实现 not only in our own lands,
和一场改变世界的战争
更要在全世界实现 but throughout the world.

瓜达卡纳尔岛 1942年9月12日
理查德·特里加斯基斯
也许鬼子们能几天不吃不喝 Maybe the Japs can go without food and water for days.
但我们不行 But we can't.
痢疾开始在陆战队中肆虐 Dysentery is starting to set in among the Marines.
在过去的几个月里 记者理查德·特里加斯基斯 For the past month, reporter Richard Tregaskis
和陆战二师坚守着 and the 2nd Marines have been clinging to
瓜达卡纳尔岛亨德森机场附近的丛林 a patch of jungle surrounding Henderson airfield on Guadalcanal.
由于担心对阵日本舰队会损失航母 Fearful of losing its carriers to the Japanese fleet,
掩护登陆的美国舰队因此 the American naval force that covered the landing
提前撤离 has left earlier than expected.
并带走了未卸完的食品 弹药和兵员 They've taken with them unloaded food, ammunition, and men,
把陆战队员们留在瓜岛上 leaving the Marines on Guadalcanal
任由日军宰割 vulnerable to Japanese attacks.
此时传言四起 The scuttlebutt is flying.
我们的侦察机发现了14架日军军舰 Our patrol aircraft has spotted 14 Jap ships,
包括运输船 巡洋舰和驱逐舰 transports, cruisers and destroyers,
朝着瓜达卡纳尔岛进发 heading to Guadalcanal.
上帝保佑 God help us.
9月13日晚 On the night of September 13th,
三千多名日军 over 3,000 Japanese troops
向一支由840名陆战队员和伞兵 attack an 840-man force
组成的部队发动了进攻 of Marine raiders and paratroopers
他们负责守卫机场南部的一条重要山脊 defending a key ridge south of the airfield.
一旦被日军突围 岛上的美军将全军覆没 If the Japanese break through, the Americans will be overrun.
次日清晨 1200多名日军伤亡士兵 The next morning, more than 1,200 dead or dying Japanese soldiers
一个个扭曲地倒在地上 lie in contorted heaps upon the ground.
而陆战队仅折损40人 40 Marines have been killed.
在指挥所里 理查德·特里加斯基斯 Back at the command post, Richard Tregaskis
在他人生第一场战斗中幸免于难 has survived his first firefight.
他走出指挥所 爬上山脊去察看战情 He departs the post and climbs the ridge to survey the carnage.
山顶已被战火夷为平地 The top of the knoll has been burned off,
烧焦的黑色坑洼是日军手榴弹爆炸留下的 black, burned patches where Jap grenades have burst.
随处可见手榴弹箱 Everywhere you can see hand grenade cartons,
步枪的空弹壳和弹药箱 empty rifle shells, ammunition boxes.
我从陆战队员和鬼子的尸体边走过 I pass bodies of Marines and Japs,
有些尸体因殊死搏斗而严重扭曲 sometimes tangled as they had fallen in a death struggle.
陆战队员们挺过了这场山脊血战 The Marines have survived the battle of bloody ridge.
但他们仍然短缺食品和水 But they are still short on food and water.
特里加斯基斯和士兵们都深知 Tregaskis and the troops know that
日军再次来袭只是时间问题 it's just a matter of time before the Japanese attack again.
天呐 海岸上都是我们的人 成千上万 My God, a whole harbor full of our guys, thousands of them.
看着他们靠岸 我们不禁欢呼雀跃 We can't help but cheer as they come ashore.
在海军舰队撤离瓜岛 Five weeks after leaving the Marines
留下陆战队孤军奋战五周之后 to fight alone on Guadalcanal,
美国海军终于冲破了日本海军的封锁 the US Navy finally breaks through the Japanese naval forces
送来了增援部队 食物和药品 and delivers reinforcements, food, and medicine.
但瓜达卡纳尔岛的战斗还远没有结束 But the fight for Guadalcanal is far from over.
这些菜鸟刚上岸就开始夸夸其谈 These new guys talk tough and loud as they come ashore,
但并不了解接下来真正面对的是什么 but they just don't know what they're walking into.
真希望我对他们将要面对的一切一无所知 I wish I didn't know what they are about to find out.
两个月过后 我已经看够了 真的够了 After two months, I've seen enough, more than enough.
我搭上了安德森机场的一班飞机 I hitch a ride out on an ongoing flight from Henderson field
离开了这个鬼地方 and get the hell out of here.
在返回夏威夷的飞机上 On his flight back to Hawaii,
特里加斯基斯开始整理他的战地记录 Tregaskis begins organizing his notes into a book,
一本记录瓜岛战役的恐怖初期的日记 a battle diary of the first terrible weeks of the Guadalcanal campaign.
离开那里几乎让我有些内疚 I almost feel guilty about leaving.
陆战队在那仍有可能吃败仗 The Marines could still lose down there.
鬼子们又在那集结了大批兵力 The Japs have plenty of fight in them.
但我还是得说 But I got to say,
我更庆幸自己离开那个悲惨而荒凉的小岛 mostly I'm glad to be off that miserable, God-forsaken island.
穿过地中海 Steaming through the Mediterranean Sea,
庞大的护航舰队载着阿奇·斯威尼下士 the immense convoy carrying Corporal Archie Sweeney
和查尔斯·舍费尔中尉 and 2nd Lieutenant Charles Scheffel
抵达了北非海岸 closes in on the coast of North Africa.
前俄克拉荷马农工大学篮球明星 The former Oklahoma A&M basketball star
现在就在一艘英军运输船上 is on board a British transport.
我们是第二波登陆的部队 We're gonna land in the second wave.
此时的我又紧张又激动 As nervous and excited as I feel,
但对即将到来的一切一无所知 I don't have a clue what awaits us.
本次突袭的代号为"火炬" The code name for the invasion is "Torch".
计划部署六万五千名英法士兵 The plan is to land 65,000 British and American troops
在法属殖民地摩洛哥和阿尔及利亚登陆 in the French colonies of Morocco and Algeria.
目标是将德军 The goal is to trap the Germans
困在英美联军和英第八集团军之间 between the Anglo-American invasion armies and the British 8th Army,
该集团军已追着德军穿过北非到了突尼斯 which has been chasing the Germans across North Africa toward Tunisia.
在英国接受了十周的特别训练后 After undergoing ten weeks of special training in England,
舍费尔和他指挥的美军 Scheffel and the Americans under his command
都临时成为英军的一部分 are now a part of a British provisional unit.
这将是美军预备役军官训练营毕业生 It will be the ROTC grad's
首次在战场指挥战斗 first time commanding troops in battle.
登陆前夜 我到甲板下和部下畅谈 The night before we were to land, I go below deck and chat with my men.
他们都激动得像小孩 They're acting like excited kids.
我告诫他们要集中注意力并时刻准备好 I tell them to focus and stay ready.
阿尔及利亚海岸附近 1942年11月7日
查尔斯·舍费尔
在登陆的几小时前 Hours before Scheffel's convoy is due to land,
舍费尔的部队遭遇德军空袭 German fighter planes attack.
我感到异常无助 I feel completely helpless.
拼命想离开这条船 I desperately want to get off this ship.
因为这就像是个死亡陷阱 It feels like a death trap.
破晓时分 舍费尔的舰只抵达港口 As dawn breaks, Scheffel's ship limps into port,
船身已倾斜20度 listing at 20 degrees.
"火炬"行动完全是一场奇袭 Operation "Torch" has been a total surprise.
三万三千名盟军士兵在阿尔及尔附近登陆 The Allies put 33,000 troops ashore near Algiers,
包括查尔斯·舍费尔的部队 including Charles Scheffel's unit.
到处混乱无序 Everything is a disorganized mess.
我没有地图 I have no map
除了清空码头并消灭一切可能遇到的敌人 and no specific orders except to clear the dock
我没接到任何具体命令 and engage any opposition that we might encounter.
我觉得这帮英国佬只是懒得理我们 I think the Brits just want us out of their hair.
当舍费尔和其他美军部队 While Scheffel and the rest of the American forces
被滞留在后方的时候 are relegated to rear positions,
英美联军的装甲部队已经朝前推进 British and American armored divisions push forward.
几周过后 他们距突尼斯仅20英里 Within weeks, they are only about 20 miles from Tunis,
这里是德军的主要港口和补给城市 the Germans' chief port and main supply city.
但在英军开始进攻前 But before the British can launch a decisive attack on the city,
德军发动了疯狂的袭击 German forces mount a furious assault,
阻挡住了英军的脚步 stopping the British in their tracks.
而在后方 Behind the lines,
查尔斯·舍费尔对英军上司已经不耐烦了 Charles Scheffel grows impatient with his British superiors.
我都做好了行动准备 I'm ready to get into action,
但我们却一直得做这些琐碎工作 but we keep getting all the crap jobs
因为英国佬们并不怎么信任我们 because the Brits don't seem to trust us much.
我想重新加入美国陆军 I want to rejoin the American Army.
我忍无可忍 在和英军准将激烈争辩之后 I am fed up, and after a heated exchange with my British brigadier,
我们被告知立即出发 we're told to just take off.
真见鬼了 用不着他再说第二遍了 Well, God Damn, he won't have to say that twice.
集合完我的士兵 我们就朝第九军进发了 I round up my men, and we head out to find the 9th.
这地方的人太多 他们肩章上的星也太多 This place has far too many men with too much gold on their shoulders
但这里无事可做 and too little to do.
密歇根巴特尔克里克市 1943年2月
琼·温德利
21岁的威斯康星人 琼·温德利 21-Year-old Wisconsin native June Wandrey
在珍珠港事件后毅然参军 volunteered for service immediately after Pearl Harbor,
并辞掉了梅奥诊所的工作 leaving behind a job at the Mayo Clinic
成为了一名军队护士 to become an army nurse.
在遭受袭击时 At the time of the attack,
美国陆军只有不到一千名护士 the US Army had less than 1,000 nurses in its ranks.
而现在 14个月过后 这一数字已接近三万 Now, 14 months later, that number is fast approaching 30,000.
在离开密歇根训练营的前夜 The night before June leaves the training facilities in Michigan,
琼写了封家书 she writes a letter home.
"他们给我们发放了陆军军装 "They distribute our army-issued combat clothing:
厚重的内衣 工作服和雨衣 heavy underwear, fatigues, and raincoats,
都是男式的加大码 all of them in men's extra large sizes.
我们被告知在找到更合适的服装之前 We're told this is what we will have to use
我们只能穿这个 until they can find something more fitting.
我的任务是到新泽西州的基尔默军营报到 My orders are to report to Camp Kilmer in New Jersey.
我将在那里踏上前往北非的征程 From there, I will deploy to North Africa.
终于启程了 我如释重负 It's a relief to finally be leaving.
那里急需外科护士" They need surgical nurses so badly over there."
1943年2月19日
在突尼斯凯塞林山口 At Kasserine Pass in Tunisia,
陆军元帅埃尔温·隆美尔 Field Marshall Erwin Rommel
率领德军非洲军团痛击了美军 lead the Africa Corps lashes out at the American forces.
美军猝不及防 The Americans are caught unprepared,
并迅速溃败 and quickly overwhelmed.
在重整旗鼓并拦截德军之前 They sustain more than 6,000 casualties
他们已经损失了六千余人 before finally regrouping and halting the Germans.
美军指挥部解除了 The American military command swiftly relieves
在凯塞林惨败的指挥官的职务 the officer responsible for the Kasserine fiasco,
代之以功勋卓著 善于组织进攻的 and replaces him with highly decorated and aggressive
乔治·S·巴顿中将 Lieutenant General, George S. Patton.
突尼斯南部尔 1943年3月
查尔斯·舍费
在离开了和他一同登陆的英军之后 After leaving the British units he landed with behind,
查尔斯·舍费尔少尉 Lieutenant Charles Scheffel
现在隶属于巴顿麾下的第39步兵团 is now with the 39th Infantry Regiment, under Patton's command.
他第一次受命带领巡逻队侦察德军的位置 He is ordered to lead his first patrol and scout German positions
那里已离美军防线很远 并隐蔽于突尼斯群山中 well forward of the American lines in the mountains of Tunisia.
我带领兄弟们去往远处的山脊 I take the guys out toward a distant ridge.
暴露于敌占区随时会被攻击让人感觉异样 It's a strange feeling, being so exposed and vulnerable.
舍费尔并不知道 Unknown to Scheffel,
附近丘陵上设置的德军机枪火力点 a German machine gun nest positioned on a nearby hill
已完全覆盖了这一地区 has the area well covered.
当舍费尔的巡逻队登上一个小山脊时 As Scheffel's patrol reaches the top of a small ridge,
德军开火了 the Germans open fire.
舍费尔和他的部下遭到了火力压制 Scheffel and his men are pinned down
无法撤退 with no hope of escaping.
我能听到部下的叫喊和呻吟 I can hear screams and moans from my guys,
但我们没法过去支援 甚至没法还击 but we can't move to help them or even return fire.
舍费尔命令部下保持冷静 寻找掩护 Scheffel orders his men to stay calm and dig in.
我不想他们惊慌逃窜 I don't want them to panic and run.
我们必须等待时机 We'll have to wait it out.
我有一种不祥的预感 我们只能靠自己了 I've got the sinking feeling that we are on our own.
一小时后 敌人停火了 After an hour, the firing stops.
有些士兵耐不住性子了 Some of the men are impatient.
我听不到敌人的动静 I can't hear the enemy,
但我不想为寻找他们而中弹 but I'm not about to get shot looking for them.
士兵的职责是活命 然后继续战斗 The job of a soldier is to survive so he can fight.
但那不是军官的职责 That's not the job of his officer.
军官要负责指挥 The job of an officer is to command.
是你让他们陷入绝境的 You're the guy that got them into that mess.
是你在指挥 You're the guy in command.
你有责任带他们脱险 You're the guy that's obligated to get them out.
一个男孩喊道 "起来吧" 他离我仅十码 One kid yells, "Dig on!" He's only about ten yards away.
我命令他待在原地 I order him to stay where he is.
告诉他我们天黑以后才能行动 I tell him we'll move only when it's dark.
"但是那边没人了" 他说 "But there's nobody out there." He says.
就在我的右边 这个臭小子站起了身 And off to my right, this damn kid stands right up.
他死了 Killed.
就在那一瞬 Right then and there.
我冲部下喊 And then I yelled at my men:
"妈的 谁也别再站起来 "Damn it, don't anybody else stand up!
我会把你们带出去 I'll get you guys out of here,
因为天黑以后他们就会撤退" because when it gets dark, they are gonna retreat."
于是我们伏在地上直到天黑 So we laid there until the sun went down.
我感到非常内疚 I feel so obligated.
我没有起身阻止那孩子 that I didn't get up and tackle that kid.
我们乘船来到了奥兰美丽的港口 We wave our way into the beautiful harbor in Oran.
该和旅途中结识的朋友们告别了 It's time to say goodbye to the many friends I've made while crossing.
我们都在想 "未来会怎样 We all wonder, "What is our future,
我们能活多久" and how long will we live?"
阿尔及利亚 奥兰 1943年4月
琼·温德利
在大西洋上Z字型走了两周 After two weeks of zigzagging across the Atlantic
并避开了德国U型潜艇后 to avoid German U-boats,
琼·温德利护士乘坐的轮船 nurse June Wandrey's ship finally
终于停在了阿尔及利亚的海港 makes port in Algeria.
船侧的美景被岸上的阵阵恶臭所代替 The beautiful view from the ship is blown away by the smell onshore.
那感觉太过强烈 就像回到了黑暗年代 It's overpowering, like being back in the dark ages.
中世纪或其早期在欧美普遍称作"黑暗时代"
人们真的生活在这样肮脏贫困的环境中吗 Do people actually live in such filth and squalor?
这让人心痛不已 It tears at your heart.
琼和其他医护营立刻得到装备 June and the rest of her medical battalion are immediately outfitted
并被命令向东行军 and ordered to push east
和在突尼斯北部快速挺进的盟军会合 to join the fast-advancing Allied forces in Northern Tunisia.
当他们到达野战医院时 When they arrive at their field hospital,
七辆载满伤员的救护车已在等候 seven ambulances full of wounded men are already waiting for them.
前线运来了大批需要就医的士兵 Patients pour in from the front.
其中混杂着伤员和病患 It's a mix of wounded, medical patients,
还有得了战争疲劳症的士兵 and battle-fatigued soldiers.
五位护士随时待命 一位护士 也就是幸运的我 Five nurses are on call, and one nurse, lucky me,
要在手术帐篷里值24小时的班 gets the 24-hour shift in the operating tent.
当你看到战士们经受的痛苦时 But you have to put aside your exhaustion
你不得不暂时忘却疲惫 when you see what our boys are going through.
伤员为只失去了一只手或一条腿而感到高兴 The wounded are happy to be missing only one arm or leg.
幸而我总是精力充沛 I'm glad I have lots of energy.
我不知道那些年老的护士是怎么跟上进度的 I'm not sure how the older nurses stand the pace.
阿尔及利亚 1943年4月
阿奇·斯威尼
1943年4月 阿奇·斯威尼远离了 By April 1943, Archie Sweeney is a long way
他位于纽约撒拉纳克湖村的家乡 from his hometown in Saranac Lake Village, New York.
斯威尼曾在"火炬"行动中登陆北非 Sweeney landed in North Africa in operation "Torch".
正随第39步兵团在突尼斯北部作战 Now in Northern Tunisia with the 39th Infantry Regiment,
这位下士正在享受巡逻后的休息 the corporal is taking a break between patrols.
"您好 爸爸 "Hello, Dad.
只想写封短信报个平安 Just a few lines to let you know I'm well
希望你们也一切安好 and hope you all are too.
终于要用到我的机枪了 Finally got to use my machine gun.
并不是说我喜欢用它射杀别人 Can't say that I much like using it to shoot against people,
但真的很高兴我会用 but I'm sure glad I know how to.
今晚这里静悄悄的 It's very quiet here this evening.
我想战争很快就会结束 I think the war may be coming to an end soon.
您应该很快就会收到我的支票 You should be receiving my check soon.
比上次多一点点 It'll be a little more than last time.
我最近赌钱赢了点 我想您会用到 I won some money in a game and figured you could use it.
该熄灯了 Well, time to turn in.
真的很想念你们 I sure do miss everyone.
爱你们的阿奇" Love, Archie."
三周后 斯威尼的父亲收到了儿子的家书 Three weeks later, Sweeney's father receives his son's letter,
一起收到的还有美国战争部的一封电报 along with a telegram from the United States War Department.
美国战争部为美国国防部的前身
他25岁的儿子阿奇·斯威尼 His 25-year-old son, Archie Sweeney,
在行动中牺牲了 has been killed in action.
由于战场上的混乱 Due to the swirling confusion of combat,
部队不可能记下所有人的死亡原因 the army is unable to document the cause of each and every fatality.
因此斯威尼的家属永远不会知道 Because of this, Sweeney's family will never know
他临终前的情景 the details of his final moments.
法属摩洛哥 卡萨布兰卡 罗斯福总统访问北非
由于个人经历和现实状况 This generation of Americans has come to realize
这一代的美国人已经认识到 with a present and personal realization
有些事情比任何个人 that there is something larger and more important
或任何团体的生命更为重要 than the life of any individual or of any individual group,
人们甘愿为此牺牲 并以此为荣 something for which a man will sacrifice, and gladly sacrifice,
不只是牺牲快乐 不只是牺牲财产 not only his pleasures, not only his goods,
不只是牺牲亲情和爱情 not only his associations with those he loves,
而是献出生命本身 but his life itself.
到1943年初 美军在各战区的伤亡人数 By early 1943, the number of American casualties in all theaters of war
已逾六万五千 reaches more than 65,000.
随着美国人被迫认识到战争的残酷现实 As Americans are forced to confront the sobering reality of the war,
记者理查德·特里加斯基斯的新作 reporter Richard Tregaskis' book
《瓜岛日记》成为了畅销书 Guadalcanal Diary hits the best-seller list.
他对前线部队真实而直接的描写 His raw, unflinching descriptions of the men on the front lines
使得美国大众既恐惧又着迷 both frightens and captivates the American public,
该书把战场实况和英雄事迹 bringing the reality and heroism of the war
带回给了本土的百万民众 home to millions of people.
"曾有个一等兵雷·亨顿 "There was a Private First Class Ray Herndon.
他身受重伤 对他的一个战友说 He was hit badly and said to one of his buddies,
'你们最好撤退吧 'You guys better move out.
反正我快不行了 但我还能再干掉三四个'..." I'm done for, anyhow. I can get three or four'..."
"来自宾夕法尼亚州格林斯堡的 "Greensburg, Pennsylvania,
瓦尔特·J·布拉克下士 Corporal Walter J. Burak,
两次在夜里穿越暴露于旷野的山脊" who twice during the night, has traversed the exposed crest..."
"英勇的事迹" "Good story of valor."
回到1942年11月 Back in November of 1942,
美国海军封锁了瓜岛 American naval forces sealed off Guadalcanal,
使日军的增援部队和补给物资不能登陆 making it impossible for the Japanese to land reinforcements and supplies.
"来自田纳西州格林威尔的约翰·R·莫瑞尔 "John R. Morrill of Greenville, Tennessee,
和其他的陆战队员失去了联系 had been cut off from the rest of the Marines,
然而不知为何他走到了..." but somehow he walked..."
"早上八点半 鬼子们发起了白刃战 "At 8:30 am, the Japs made a bayonet charge,
但他们被打退了" but they were beaten back."
现在 1943年2月的第一周 Now, in the first week of February 1943,
在珍珠港事件14个月后 14 months after Pearl Harbor,
瓜岛终于被夺回 Guadalcanal is finally secured.
这是美军在陆战中 It is America's first major victory on land
对日军的首次大捷 against the forces of Imperial Japan.
同时这也是日本的残酷侵略首次被阻止 And for the first time, the relentless Japanese expansion has been stopped.
但对轴心国大规模的双线作战仍任重道远 But the massive two-front war against the Axis powers is still only beginning.
阿拉斯加州 荷兰港 1943年4月
杰克·沃纳
如果不打仗 那么参战还有何意义 What is the point of being in a war without seeing action?
我参军是为了战斗 I signed up to fight.
过去两年中 For the past two years,
奥地利籍犹太移民杰克·沃纳 Jewish Austrian immigrant Jack Werner
在美陆军第七师接受训练 has been training with the US Army's 7th Division
他只有一个目标 with one goal in mind:
自逃离维也纳的纳粹魔掌后 ever since escaping the Nazis' clutches in Vienna,
他一直希望有机会和希特勒的军队战斗 he's wanted a chance to take the fight to Hitler.
但第七师并不和德军作战 But the 7th Division is nowhere near any German forces.
他们乘船向北抵达阿拉斯加 They're in ships headed north to Alaska.
沃纳即将参加他的首次战斗 Werner is heading to his first combat,
敌人是日军 against the Japanese.
沃纳志愿加入一支200人的侦察队 Werner has volunteered to be one of 200 select scouts,
作为突袭部队的一部分 part of a covert strike team
这支部队将成为本次大规模作战的先锋 that will become the opening thrust of a major operation
去夺回阿拉斯加的阿图岛和吉斯卡岛 to retake the Alaskan islands of Attu and Kiska.
一年多来 日本占领着 For over a year, the Japanese have occupied
这些位于北美西部边界的 these remote, frozen islands
偏远而寒冷的岛屿 at the western edge of North America.
他们的动机令人费解 Their motives: a mystery.
然而据目前的情报 Now intelligence reports
他们正在阿图岛建设大型的临时跑道 that they are building large airstrips on Attu
这将帮助他们更好地保护 that will allow them to better defend
珍珠港事件后在太平洋战场上的战果 their Post-Pearl conquests in the Pacific.
沃纳和侦察队在夜色的掩护下悄悄登陆 Werner and scout force slip ashore under cover of darkness.
鬼子们根本不知道我们来了 The Japs have no idea that we're here.
1943年3月初 In early March of 1943,
英第八集团军向北推进至突尼斯 the British 8th Army pushes north into Tunisia,
而美军从西面向德军侧翼发动进攻 while the Americans hammer at the Germans' western flank.
在盖塔尔附近的群山中 In the mountains near El Guettar,
美军炮兵和步兵部队 American artillery and infantry units,
包括舍费尔所在的第39团 including Scheffel's 39th Regiment,
击退了德军疯狂的反攻 push back a furious German counteroffensive.
美军首次在实战中击败 For the first time, US forces defeat
经验丰富的德军装甲部队 the seasoned German armored units in battle.
由于对守住防线不抱任何希望 With no hope of holding their lines,
德军开始向北 the Germans begin to retreat northward
撤退到突尼斯和比塞大的的港口 to the ports of Tunis and Bizerte.
经历了战争洗礼的查尔斯·舍费尔 The now battle-tested Charles Scheffel
还有第39团的士兵们 and the 39th Regiment pursue the enemy
沿着突尼斯北部沙尘弥漫的山脊追赶敌人 along the dusty ridges in Northern Tunisia.
希望在撤退的德军掘壕固守之前 They hope to catch the retreating Germans
赶上他们 before the enemy can dig in.
我们在向前进军的时候 We're moving along
无意中发现一批德军 when we stumble on this group of Germans.
他们一边把双手举起来 They have their hands in the air,
一边喊着"友军 友军" and they're yelling, "Comrade, comrade."
他们只是些刚入伍的年轻士兵 又脏又怕 They're just young enlisted men, filthy and scared,
他们不像是会制造什么麻烦的 and they don't seem like much trouble,
所以派一个人带自动来福枪 so one guy with an automatic rifle
还有满夹的子弹应该足够看住他们 and a full clip ought to be enough to guard them.
我于是叫凯尔伯格去 并且跟他说 So I call over Kyleberger, and I tell him
他要一个人把投降的德军带回到营总部去 he's gonna have to take them back to battalion HQ alone.
凯尔伯格走了回来 Kyleberger comes walking back,
我才意识到发生什么事情了 and I realize what just happened.
他杀死了那些投降的德军 He just murdered those prisoners.
我的手紧握住我的枪 I put my hand on my gun.
我正想毙了他 I was ready to shoot him.
一个士兵说 And one of my men said,
"长官 你不清楚啊 他是个犹太人 "Sir, you don't know this, but he is a Jew.
他跟我说他的父母 He tells me his parents were killed
都在德国被纳粹杀死了" by Nazis back in Germany."
我该怎么做呢 把他押回总部关起来吗 What am I gonna do, send him back to HQ under arrest?
我们的命令是向比塞大进军 Our orders are to push on toward Bizerte,
对我来说 多个人比什么都好 and I need every last man I can get.
于是我们继续前进 So we push on.
阿留申群岛 阿图岛 1943年5月
杰克·沃纳
那里的风实在是太难受了 The wind is nearly unbearable.
但一想到接下来的战斗 我就感到异常兴奋 I feel a terrific thrill, just imagining what's to come.
在他的第一次任务中 On his first combat mission,
杰克·沃纳中士和他的侦察队友 Sergeant Jack Werner and the scouts are hiking to a valley
向阿图岛北端的一个山谷进军 at the northern end of Attu Island.
他们的任务是 当两股美军抵达港湾 Their mission is to prevent the Japanese from retreating,
并开始进攻时 阻止日军撤退 once two larger American forces land on the bay and push forward.
但是那里的山地地形使得行军相当艰难 But the mountainous terrain makes the progress difficult.
路途崎岖 战士们无精打采 It's tough going, and the men aren't in great shape.
一些人丢掉他们的装备 Some are dropping their gear.
我看到很多丢弃的背包 防毒面具 甚至弹药 I see abandoned packs, gas masks, even ammo.
之后我们接到命令丢掉我们的背包 Then we get orders to drop our packs
只带足一天给养 and take only one-day rations.
到底是谁下的这样的命令 Who gives such orders?
我把所有的装备都带着 I keep all of my equipment.
当突击队抵达山谷最狭窄的部位时 As the strike force reaches the narrowest part of the valley,
一阵浓雾笼罩而来 a thick fog settles over them.
重型机关枪穿过浓雾疯狂扫射 Heavy machine gun fire penetrates the fog,
压制着他们 pinning them down.
我冲着周围的人吼道 I yelled to the guys around me,
"你看到那些混蛋的行径了吗 "You see what those bastards are doing?
我们快起来干掉他们吧" Let's get up and give them hell."
一开始 我并没有真正意识到 At first, I don't really realize
我其实就在杀人 I am actually trying to kill men.
我甚至看不到日本人在哪里 I can't even see the Japanese.
虽然他们向我们开枪 但我看不到一个人 They were shooting at us, but I never saw one,
看不到他们的脸 甚至影子都没有 face to face, maybe even a shadow.
突然间下了一场倾盆大雨 It was the sudden down-pour of the rain.
浓雾紧锁 漆黑一片 令人烦躁... It was misty, nasty and dark...
在海岸边 第17步兵团 Back on the shore, the 17th Infantry Regiment
顺利抵达阿图岛的海滩 hits Attu's beaches unopposed.
但他们的车辆陷在那里的烂泥里了 But their vehicles struggle in the spring slush and mud.
沃纳和他的突击队友在没有食物 Werner and his strike force are stranded without food,
火力支援和与指挥部的联系下勉力支撑 fire support, or contact with their command,
敌人的火力却没有停止过 and the enemy keeps firing.
第17团去哪里了 Where is the 17th?
他们应该在24小时内来这里支援的 They were supposed to be here within 24 hours.
还有人知道我们的位置吗 Does anyone even know where we are?
几乎所有人的弹药和食物都消耗殆尽了 Almost all of our munitions and food is gone.
我们根本不应该在爬那些恶劣的山路时 Our troops never should have dropped their packs
把我们的背包丢掉的 on the way up this miserable mountain.
谢天谢地 我的还留着 Thank God I kept mine.
阿留申群岛 阿图岛 1943年5月
杰克·沃纳
在阿留申群岛的阿图岛上 杰克·沃纳 On Attu Island in the Aleutians, Jack Werner
和他的第七师侦察队还在和饥饿 寒冷 and the 7th Division scouts are battling freezing cold,
以及浓雾里看不见的日军战斗 hunger, and an enemy they can't see through the heavy fog
终于 浓云中闪现一道光 Finally, a break in the clouds, and what a sight:
我们的飞机正在俯冲攻击鬼子们的据点 our planes are diving low, attacking the Jap positions.
我们的队长命令我们即刻前进 Our captain orders us to advance immediately.
当我们冲进开阔地带时 我们看到了援军 As we break into the open terrain, we can see our troops.
我们周围全是第17团的战士 The 17th is all around us.
他们的一个长官看着我说 "突击队的吗 One of their officers spots me and says, "The scouts?
天哪 我们还以为你们全战死了呢" By God, we thought you guys are all wiped out."
由于冻疮和饥饿 沃纳和侦察队员 Frostbitten and half-starved, Werner and the scouts
被安排在后方休整 are sent behind the lines to recuperate.
就在他们休整期间 剩下的日军 While they are there, the remaining Japanese
发起了最后一次自杀式进攻 美军阵亡549人 stage a final Banzai attack, killing 549 Americans.
尽管最后一战十分惨烈 美军最终 But despite the bloody finale, American forces eventually
保住了阿图岛和吉斯卡岛 secure both Attu and Kiska Islands
而且是开战以来第一次 and for the first time
从日军手中夺回美国的领土 reclaim American territory from the Japanese.
我实在太兴奋了 I am simply exhilarated.
终于在战斗中证明了我自己 Finally, I've had my chance to prove myself in combat,
像是一个真正的男人能为自己负责 and feel like a man who can carry his own.
我想那就是我从中学到的 I think that is what I learned.
我在军队中学习并在战斗中得到肯定 I learned in the army and then got it reconfirmed in combat.
我到现在都认为那是相当有意义的经历 So it was a positive experience as far as I am concerned.
我不太喜欢那样说 I hate to say that
因为很多战友都受伤或者阵亡了 because many people got wounded and killed.
为什么还要说对我会是有意义的呢 Why should it be positive for me?
但的确有意义 But it was.
如果我们赢得这次战役 If we win this campaign,
这将不只是对轴心国集团的一次胜利 it will be more than just a victory over the Axis.
它还会是疾病和战伤医务史上的一次胜利 It will be a medical victory over disease and battle wounds.
突尼斯 1943年5月
琼·温德利
抵达北非一个月之后 One month after arriving in North Africa,
琼·温德利护士的护理营人员跟上了 nurse June Wandrey's medical battalion is trailing
在比塞大附近进军的美军 the advancing American army near Bizerte.
我们对能帮到别人很感到高兴 It feels good knowing that we are making a difference.
但我忍不住幻想能治好他们所有的人 But, I can't help wishing we can save them all.
一位18岁的男孩被抬到重伤病房 An 18-year-old boy is carried into the shock ward,
他用非常信任的眼神看着我 问道 and he looks up at me trustingly, asking,
"护士 我现在怎么样了" "How am I doing, Nurse?"
我吻了下他的额头 对他说 I just kiss his forehead and say,
"你会没事的 大兵" "You are doing just fine, Soldier."
他微笑着说 "我只是想确认一下" He smiles sweetly and says, " I was just checking."
接着他就死了 Then he dies.
我们都会在暗地里哭 We all cry in private,
但不会在战士们面前流泪 but not in front of the boys.
绝不在战士们面前流泪 Never in front of the boys.
我们可以看到我们的飞机 We can see our planes
向德军投下大量的炸弹 dropping tons of bombs on the Germans.
我能想到的是 "炸死他们吧 伙计们" All I can think is, "Give them hell, guys."
在紧追德军穿过突尼斯北部之后 After pursuing the enemy across Northern Tunisia,
查尔斯·舍费尔少尉和第39步兵团 Lieutenant Charles Scheffel and the 39th Infantry Regiment
已经接近北部港口城市比塞大 are closing in on the port city of Bizerte.
盟军的空军力量切断了德意之间的补给线 Allied airpower is destroying the Germans' supply lines to Italy
和德军的撤退路线 and any hope of escape.
那时候很疯狂而且很兴奋 It's crazy and exhilarating,
庆祝敌人无路可逃 cheering at the death of our enemies.
在一周残酷的空中和地面的攻击之后 After a week of relentless attacks from the air and ground,
纳粹在北非最后的 the last vestige of the Nazis'
残余力量被歼灭 hold on North Africa is crushed.
大约在上午刚过半的时候 About mid morning,
一长队的车队在路上行驶 a long column of vehicles come up the road.
车队的后面 大概有五万名德军俘虏 Strung out behind, there must be 50,000 German soldiers.
这些就是不可战胜的德军所剩下的人了 This is what's left of the invincible Germans.
1943年5月7日 英国军队 On May 7, 1943, British troops
进入突尼斯的首都 march into the Capitol of Tunis,
而美国军队进入了比塞大城 while American forces enter the city of Bizerte.
"火炬"计划五个月之后 Five months after launching the operation "Torch" landings
盟军已经将德军赶出了非洲大陆 the Allies have pushed the Germans out of the continent.
毫无战争经验的美国军队也在 And the inexperienced Americans have proven themselves
他们第一次与德国纳粹大规模交手后证明了自己 in their first major campaign against the Nazis.
到处洋溢着胜利的喜悦 There's joy in victory,
我清楚我们已经做到的和将要进行的 knowing that we did what we came to do,
我带领我的部下参战并且胜利地活下来 that I led my men into and out of combat.
但是这只是一场战役而已 But this, this was just one battle,
一场战役是不能赢得这场战争的 and one battle ain't gonna win this war.
夏威夷 瓦胡岛 1943年夏
杰克·沃纳
我们是一支士气低落的队伍 军容不整 We're a very sad lot, not looking too good.
但在海上呆了那么久你能指望我们怎么样呢 But what can you expect after so many weeks at sea?
在协助夺回阿拉斯加群岛的 Four months after helping to
阿图岛四个月之后 reclaim the Alaskan Island of Attu,
杰克·沃纳和第七师 Jack Werner and the 7th Division
来到了夏威夷地区 dock in the territory of Hawaii.
既然已经经历了一次战斗 Now that he's had his first taste of combat,
沃纳开始迫切地期待下一次战斗 Werner is anxious for his next fight.
我满脑子的都是战斗 All I can think about is the war,
我们下次的任务是什么 what is it we're gonna do next,
谁有可能阵亡 who is gonna get killed,
我们该如何准备好 and how can we prepare ourselves.
在危难关头 前途未卜的情况下 In time of crisis, when the future is in the balance,
我们充满赞许与虔诚地 we come to understand with full recognition and devotion
认识了这个国家 what this nation is.
我们美国人民现在面对的 The task that we Americans now face
是对我们最大的考验 will test us to the uttermost.
从来没有如此伟大的使命 Never before have we been called upon
要求我们做出最大的努力 for such a prodigious effort.
从来没有要我们在如此短暂的时间内 Never before have we had so little time
完成如此伟大的使命 in which to do so much.

那些认幻想能在 Those Americans who believed that we could live
孤立主义中生存的美国人 under the illusion of isolationism
想要美国雄鹰 wanted the American Eagle
去模仿一只逃避现实的鸵鸟 to imitate the tactics of the ostrich.
但我们还是选择保持雄鹰本色 But we prefer to retain the Eagle as it is,
翱翔万里 搏击长空 flying high and striking hard.
当月 盟军进军西西里岛
是我们 而不是他们 将获得最后的胜利 We, not they, will win the final battle,
是我们 而不是他们 将最终迎来和平 and we, not they, will make the final peace.
在攻占西西里岛仅仅38天后
十万德军逃至意大利 并重新集结
牺牲越伟大 胜利越光荣 The harder the sacrifice, the more glorious the triumph.
解放欧洲的战斗打响了...
