Special Report Transcript Episode 19, Section 3, Time 15:50

I heard the field commander reporting to Colonel van der Bank with great concern that his position was under attack or under fire. I cannot recall his exact words. He further reported that his position was being approached at speed. He sought advice from Colonel van der Bank and asked whether he should open fire. Colonel van der Bank instructed him to hold fire and inquired from me whether I had monitored this transmission, which I confirmed. Colonel van der Bank then inquired whether the field commander could open fire. I instructed him to confirm that the field commander was being fired upon.
