:47:03
. . .to use it in our beloved master's will.
:47:06
If women are your special province, why
do you hate Major Reisman so much?

:47:12
There are 11 evil men out there. . .
:47:19
. . .and they must be punished
for their wickedness.

:47:21
And this Major Reisman,
he just snatched them up. . .

:47:24
. . .from the brink of the pit, and he
cheated the master of his vengeance.

:47:28
And you think that's what God wants?
To punish these men?

:47:31
Oh, he will, captain. He will.
And Major Reisman too.

:47:36
-So, what does that give you?
-It doesn't give me anything.

:47:39
But along with these other results,
it gives you. . .

:47:42
. . .about the most twisted, anti-social
bunch of psychopathic deformities ever.

:47:47
And the worst, the most dangerous
of the bunch is Maggott.

:47:51
You've got one religious maniac,
one malignant dwarf, two near-idiots. . . .

:47:55
And the rest, I don't even want
to think about.

:47:58
Well, I can't think of a better way
to fight a war.

:48:00
The results of these tests
point to the fact that each man. . .

:48:04
. . .has a built-in resentment against
any kind of authority. Any kind.

:48:09
-Don't you?
-But this is different.

:48:12
These guys think the U.S. Army
is their enemy, not the Germans.

:48:15
Well, they know the U.S. Army.
:48:17
But the Krauts haven't done
anything to them yet.

:48:20
Very sophisticated.
:48:24
Well, at least they know the U.S. Army.
:48:26
You can twist it any way you want.
But the point is. . .

:48:30
. . .you are their main enemy.
:48:32
And when the time comes,
you'll be the number one target.

:48:34
Well, at least it gives them
something in common.

:48:37
What do you mean?
:48:38
They've come a long way individually,
further than we have a right to expect.

:48:42
But not as a unit. Not as a group.
:48:44
They've gotta function as a team.
And that's what's lacking.

:48:48
You think putting them
on guard duty will help?

:48:50
Well, it might give them
a sense of participation.

:48:54
Why don't you let me weed out
the real morons? Especially Maggott.

:48:58
I didn't pick these men, the Army did.
And I didn't pick the assignment either.
