Always one or two of your younger
tyro officers brings up or flops over.

:45:47
Faints away like lily at bedtime.
:45:49
The time should be past when such
treatment is inflicted on a British soldier.

:45:53
They will not fight unless
they are flogged to it.

:45:56
Would you ask that of them?
:45:57
Would you ask they fight like fiends
of hell for money or ideas?

:46:02
That would be unchristian.

Punishment completed, sir.
:46:14
Unfasten.

What will you do now, Sgt. Major?
l doubt if he'll have a pension now...

:46:23
...and that worries me.
:46:25
l shall continue in the service,
though no pension.

:46:29
Shall you enlist as a private
in some other regiment...

:46:31
...and hope to make your rank again?
:46:33
l shall, sir.
l am too humbled to stay in the 11th.

:46:39
lt is humbling. l have had some humbling.
:46:42
You can't avoid it.
:46:45
There is no making without breaking.
:46:57
-My lord, l must protest.
-Nolan, we don't flog officers.
