Dr. Petry : [Colonial Army troop marches into the fort with the new 13 colony American flag] Where are you men going?
Commander of Colonial Troops : Home.
Dr. Petry : Home?
Commander of Colonial Troops : The war's over. Cornwallis surrendered to Washington at Yorktown last week.
Dr. Petry : [All look at the new flag] So, that's our new flag. The thing we've been fighting for---13 stripes for the colonies and 13 stars in a circle for the Union.
Lana : It's a pretty flag, isn't it?
Adam Hartman : Hey soldier, let me take that flag a minute! We did a little fightin' around here ourselves.
[Ward Bond walks the flag up the ladder and it's lifted onto the church bell tower. Indian Blue Back salutes the flag]
Gilbert Martin : [Henry Fonda turns to his wife Claudette Colbert] Well, I reckon we better be gettin' back to work. There's going to be a heap to do from now on.
[They turn and walk out of the fort]
