Erskine's very important to me. Let's
make no pretence. We both know why.
:22:08
My staff is small, compact, efficient.
Runs like clockwork.
:22:11
Between you and me, l got no room
for Erskine over at Battalion.
:22:15
- I thought of Division.
- I send him up to General Parsons?
:22:19
In what capacity? l mean, specifically.
:22:22
So you see how it is.
We all got our troubles.
:22:25
I appreciate your concern
for the morale of this company.
:22:28
I'm just as concerned. More.
:22:30
- I'm responsible for this company.
- Why don't you face the facts?!
:22:35
- A lot of guys are gonna get killed...
- Shut up!
:22:38
You spoke your piece, now l'm gonna
speak mine. You listening?
:22:42
Yes, sir.
:22:43
It all boils down to one basic fact.
:22:47
This company is...
:22:49
Let's just say it's a bit shaky in the morale
department and not too fit for combat.
:22:54
- Correct?
- Correct.
:22:55
- That's your worry?
- That's my worry.
:22:57
Then you can forget about it.
:23:00
- What's your first name?
- Harry.
:23:03
Stop worrying, Harry.
Cos l got it straight from the top.
:23:07
It's a hundred to one that
we'll never see combat again.
:23:13
Is that the real word, Colonel?
From the top?
:23:15
From the top. A hundred to one.
:23:18
(radio buzzes)
:23:24
- Fragile Fox One.
- This is Division. Colonel Bartlett there?
:23:28
Yes. Hold on just a minute.
:23:33
Colonel Bartlett.
:23:34
General Parsons wants to see all
commanders as soon as possible.
:23:38
- Tell the general l'll be right over.
- Thank you, sir.
:23:41
So, that being the situation...
:23:46
I want you to relax
about Erskine. Ride it out.
:23:50
A year from now, you'll be a civilian again,
adjusting to the problems of peace.
:23:55
I feel better already, Colonel.
:23:58
That's the ticket, Harry.
