:17:00
It's my right to speak up.
I'm seeing the sergeant.
:17:03
Don't start in with him, Arnold.
He's crazy. This is probably his recipe.
:17:07
- Hey.
- How ya doin'?
:17:12
He's here for his cup of blood.
:17:14
Listen, you two guys,...
:17:17
..don't give the sergeant any crap cos
when he don't like you he don't like us.
:17:21
Any guy that screws up in this platoon
is in deep shit with me, understand?
:17:25
- Who made you lieutenant colonel?
- I did. I promoted myself.
:17:29
If I have to do more push-ups cos of you,
Jerome, you're gonna be underneath me.
:17:33
Well, now we know who the fruits are.
:17:36
Hey, did you guys hear
what happened over at Baker Company?
:17:40
Some guy went nuts. Said he was goin'
home, he didn't want no part of this army.
:17:44
An officer tried to stop him
and the kid belted him one.
:17:48
The guy's sure to get
five to ten years in Leavenworth.
:17:51
I thought this was Leavenworth.
:17:54
- How are my boys doin'?
- First-rate, sarge.
:17:56
- Surprisingly interesting food, sarge.
- They don't give you enough.
:18:01
Not hungry, Epstein?
:18:02
I find enough nourishment
in bread and water, Sergeant.
:18:05
You'll need plenty of nourishment
with ten backbreakin' weeks ahead of ya.
:18:10
- Starting at 5am, we're goin' on a hike.
- 5am?
:18:14
You'll love it. Nothin' like seein' the sun
come up over a Mississippi swamp.
:18:18
You boys arrived here a day late
and I got to make up that time.
:18:22
It's a reasonable request
to make, isn't it? Jerome?
:18:25
Well, we sort of elected Wykowski our
leader. I think that he oughta answer that.
:18:31
- Is that right, Wykowski?
- I don't question orders, I follow them.
:18:35
Good answer. A chickenshit one,
but it's a good answer.
:18:38
How about you, Epstein?
Are you up? 15-mile walk?
:18:42
- No, Sergeant.
- No?!
:18:46
Epstein's not up to it, men.
Why is that, Epstein?
:18:49
We've been on a train
for three days and three nights.
:18:52
We haven't had one good night's sleep
since we left Fort Dix.
:18:56
I see. OK. Fair enough.
:18:59
Epstein, you're excused from the hike.
