They?
The other two.

:50:02
They are brothers,
:50:04
and they're waiting
for a chance to sell it.

:50:06
But he is the leader.
:50:08
He carries it.
:50:10
I've watched him.
:50:12
What about the two Americans?
:50:14
Well.
:50:15
They are just friends.
:50:20
Make sure you're
telling me the truth.

:50:22
I am.
:50:24
I am!
:50:29
You know,
:50:31
I think I can help you
get that jewel.

:50:34
Why...
:50:35
Why, that's
what I hoped.

:50:38
I'm sure you did.
:50:41
In a week we go to relieve the
garrison at Fort Zinderneuf.

:50:44
It can be arranged there.
:50:47
But there are three of them,
and... and the two friends.

:50:51
Some of the company
go to Fort Tokotu

:50:53
for mounted
infantry training.

:50:54
It can be arranged.
:50:57
And if there's no jewel,
:50:58
you'll get
a wooden jewel box.

:51:02
I promise you.
:51:03
But... but he has it.
:51:06
I'm sure of it.
:51:08
Go back to the barracks.
:51:18
Today marks the end
of your training.

:51:21
You are now soldiers,
:51:22
in the service of France.
:51:25
We are here on the desert
:51:27
as guardians
of 20 millions of natives.

:51:31
They look to us
:51:33
for the protection and justice
:51:35
that is the tradition
of the Foreign Legion.

:51:38
Yours is a high duty,
:51:40
and a hard one.
:51:42
The odds are great.
:51:44
It is our allegiance to France
:51:47
and our debt to civilization
:51:50
to uphold that tradition.
:51:52
Some of you are assigned
with me to Fort Zinderneuf.

:51:55
Another detachment
will go to Fort Tokotu

:51:57
for further training
in the mounted company.

:51:59
Select your men
for Tokotu, Sergeant.
