PS：36秒左右有破折号The nurse brought a chair, so the marine could sit by the bed.
Nights are long in hospitals, but all through the night the young marine sat there in the dimly lit ward, holding the old man's hand and offering words of hope and strength. Occasionally, the nurse urged the marine to rest for a while. He refused.
Whenever the nurse came into the ward, the marine was there, but he paid no attention to her and the night noises of the hospital — the banging of an oxygen tank, the laughter of the night staff exchanging greetings, the cries and moans and breathing of other patients. Now and then she heard him say a few gentle words. The dying man said nothing, only held tightly to his son through most of the night.护士搬来一张椅子，那海军陆战队队员就坐在床边守着。
医院里长夜漫漫，年轻的海军陆战队战士整夜坐在灯光昏暗的病房里，握着老人的手，给予老人希望与力量。护士偶尔会过来劝他休息一会儿，但他都拒绝了。
护士每次进来，海军陆战队战士都坐在那儿。对于护士的进出、医院晚上的各种响动——氧气瓶的撞击声、值夜班的医生护士打招呼时的笑声、其他病人的哭喊、呻吟声和呼吸声——他都视若不见。不时地，护士听见他柔声说着什么。弥留之际的老人则什么也没说，只是在那一夜大部分的时间里紧紧抓着儿子的手。
