:27:00
...l want the prisoners
treated as prisoners.
:27:03
No more brutality!
:27:06
There's hundreds of prisoners out there
and only a few men to guard them.
:27:10
What am l supposed to do?
l have to have respect!
:27:13
l think that you'll manage to gain
their respect by treating them better!
:27:19
Are our men treated that well
in Andersonville Camp?
:27:22
l don't give a goddamn
what they do in Andersonville!
:27:24
While l'm in charge here,
the prisoners are not to be...
:27:27
...tortured...
:27:28
...or cheated...
:27:30
...or murdered!
:27:32
ls that an accusation?
:27:34
Sergeant, gangrene is eating
my leg away...
:27:38
...not my eyes.
:27:40
l know the prisoners here are being
robbed systematically.
:27:43
l know there's scum around,
or bivouacked near the camp, waiting...
:27:47
...for someone to deliver this loot.
:27:50
But as long as l'm commandant,
l won't permit any such trickery!
:27:53
Am l clear?
:27:57
Yes, sir.
:27:58
Just as long as you're the commandant.
:28:02
Yes, sergeant.
:28:07
l know this leg means
l won't last very long...
:28:10
...but l pray l can manage
to have enough time...
:28:13
...to amass evidence and bring to a
court-martial all those who discredit...
:28:19
...and dishonor the uniform...
:28:22
...of the Union!
:28:28
l wish you luck.
