Why, madam, we are the Old Guard.
We are the nation's toy soldiers.

:22:08
We march with rifles that can't shoot.
We fix bayonets that cannot stick.

:22:13
We're the Kabuki theatre
of the profession of arms.

:22:17
Jesters in the court of Mars,
god of war, doo-da, doo-da.

:22:20
Now, Goody Nelson, you just
hush that up right now.

:22:24
You're beginning to sound
just like Clell...

:22:27
...bitter and cynical and irreverent.
:22:31
You have to be among the Army's
top people to get in.

:22:35
And it is a right nice honour,
I think, and a privilege...

:22:39
...for them to have
been asked to join.

:22:42
Wait a minute! We weren't asked.
We were ordered.

:22:47
We actually applied for a teaching
position at the infantry school.

:22:53
We thought we'd help some of them
come back standing up...

:22:57
...instead of stretched out
in those boxes we plant.

:23:00
You both sound like
a couple of echoes to me.

:23:04
Now, come on, you two! Where's
the rest of this wonderful meal?

:23:17
- So how did you meet Goody?
- One day a constituent from home...

:23:22
...came into Senator Ervin's office,
wanting a tour of Fort Myer.

:23:26
- I took him on the tour...
- Clell, old buddy.

:23:29
Your sudden good taste is surprising.
That's a classy-looking woman.

:23:35
- I could drag my balls over her...
- You promised! Please! Stop, will you?

:23:41
Okay. Let's get back in there...
:23:43
...so I can ogle them gals
some more. Yum, yum, yum.

:23:47
I fell in love with
the sergeant major on the spot.

:23:51
As any well-bred, genteel
Southern girl would have.

:23:55
- That's beautiful.
- Make a hole.

:23:57
Make it wide.
:23:59
There you have it.
