:08:02
I don't blame them, sir.
It's a little hard to understand.
:08:06
- Ever get in the habit?
- Oh. No, sir. No, thanks.
:08:09
Smart. Damn things will kill you.
:08:20
- What am I gonna tell those people?
- I never thought this would involve you.
:08:24
Let me tell 'em it was growing pains.
The wrong execution of the right idea.
:08:29
- The wrong execution of the right idea?
- Yeah. They'll understand that.
:08:34
Look, Brian, all the men in our family
have been soldiers.
:08:37
- I know.
- Plain dogfaces with a knack for surviving.
:08:40
- I hoped somebody would break into brass.
- I have my command.
:08:44
You're not thinking straight. You have
a bad way to lose a pretty bright future, kid.
:08:48
Stop calling me kid.
:08:55
You expect me to call you Major?
:08:58
You can forget it.
:09:00
Look at this operation. You got your strength
nose to nose with the cops.
:09:05
Eventually even they'll figure out you've got
a vulnerable rear flank and they'll sneak in.
:09:10
There, by the field, behind the trees,
and they'll throw a net over your asses.
:09:14
You can say that...
:09:15
The first canister of tear gas,
half your troops'll wet their pants and run.
:09:19
And how bright was it
to let this delegation in here?
:09:22
Look at me. I could break your neck and
you wouldn't be able to do a thing about it.
:09:27
You'd be shot.
My next in command would take over.
:09:29
I read that book too.
:09:30
We could take you all as hostages,
but we won't. We have a code of honour.
:09:34
Sweet Jesus! Is that what this is all about?
Somebody's lofty shit about honour? Yours?
:09:39
Yes, mine, and I learned it here.
General Bache lives it...
:09:42
- He's here because there's no place...
- He is the example we follow!
:09:46
Bache has been passed over so many times,
he's got a stiff neck from the draught.
:09:50
Bache! Bache is living proof
that horses' asses outnumber horses!
:09:54
Captain Shawn, escort my...
the sergeant off the base!
