- I hope he knows his stuff.
- Maybe we'll get liberty.

:04:09
- We ain't replacements any more.
- Where is he? Where's the sergeant?

:04:14
He's here.
:04:16
- Well, what do you know? Stryker.
- Hello, Thomas.

:04:20
- Thought you were in the First.
- I was. Sit down.

:04:25
Just sit down, Thomas, anywhere.
:04:32
My name is Stryker,
Sergeant John M Stryker.

:04:36
You're gonna be my squad, a rifle squad.
:04:39
Three of us have seen action: Corporal
Dunne, Charlie Bass and myself.

:04:44
You'll learn from us. In boot camp
you learned out of a book.

:04:48
Here you gotta remember the book and
learn things that haven't been printed.

:04:54
You gotta learn right and fast.
:04:58
Any man that doesn't want to cooperate,
I'll make him wish he hadn't been born.

:05:03
Before I'm through with you, you're
gonna move and think like one man.

:05:08
If you don't, you'll be dead.
You guys have had a nice easy day.

:05:13
I hope you enjoyed it because
it's the last one you'll get for a long time.

:05:19
You joined the Marines to fight and
you'll get your chance. I'll show you how.

:05:23
If I can't teach you one way, I'll teach you
another. But I'll get the job done.

:05:28
The skipper of this outfit
is Captain Joyce.

:05:31
Platoon leader is Lieutenant Baker.
Platoon sergeant is Sergeant Wright.

:05:36
Any questions?
:05:39
That's all.
:05:45
10,000 sergeants in this corps
and I draw Stryker!

:05:48
You knew this guy before?
:05:51
Yeah. We were stationed
together in China.

:05:55
Twice he kept me from promotion.
Turned me in once.

:05:59
30 days I got.
He was a sergeant major then.
