:42:00
lf your part in this incident
is known...

:42:05
-it will harm your career.
-l'm aware of my position.

:42:10
We have decided to act
discreetly.

:42:15
Thank you, Colonel.
:42:16
With Kubinyi, it's
a different story.

:42:19
He's been in trouble
before.

:42:21
However, he survives such
incidents more easily.

:42:28
Redl, l must say...
:42:30
you were only a second,
but that was a grave error.

:42:34
Never get involved in
anything like this again.

:42:37
Yes, Colonel.
:42:38
Do you think an officer
without family connections...

:42:43
remains unnoticed?
ls that your opinion, Redl?

:42:47
l'm convinced the army
seldom allows merit...

:42:50
to go unacknowledged.
:42:53
Correct, Redl,
and for obvious reasons.

:42:56
The future of the Monarchy
and Europe...

:42:59
-depends on the army.
-l've noticed that...

:43:02
officers who complain
about privilege...

:43:05
are of average ability,
mostly below that.

:43:09
Exactly. A good soldier
always recognizes another.

:43:14
That's the basis
of comradeship.

:43:18
Redl, as a Commander...
:43:21
l must inform
to the War Ministry...

:43:25
about officers
of outstanding merit.

:43:27
Your merits have surpassed
your present rank.

:43:32
Here's your promotion
to Major.

:43:36
And here's your order
to report to Vienna.

:43:42
His Majesty has
appointed you...

:43:45
second-in-command
of a garrison.

:43:48
lt's a pity, it had to arrive
on this unfortunate day.

:43:54
Nevertheless,
congratulations.

:43:57
Thank you, Colonel.
:43:58
lt means a great deal to me.
After all, l trained you.
