The British people and their Grecian allies need ships; from America they will get ships. They need planes; from America they will get planes. Yes, from America they need food, and from America they will get food. They need tanks and guns and ammunition and supplies of all kinds; from America they will get tanks and guns and ammunition and supplies of all kinds.

Our life here is truly hellish. Fortunately, my soldiers are very brave and tougher than the enemy.

Men, I am not ordering you to attack. I am ordering you to die. In the time that it takes us to die, other forces and commanders can come and take our place.

After having lost their lives on this land they [enemy soldiers] have become our sons as well.

Heroes who shed their blood and lost their lives! You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace.

They will be sore tried, by night and by day, without rest-until the victory is won.
