Sergeant major is a friend of
your dad's from the Korean War days.

:36:13
Now then, as to results
of recent battalion inspection...

:36:19
You see, kid,
as the Good Book says...

:36:23
...some days the bear eats you.
Others, you eat it.

:36:26
Meaning we won the inspection,
Wildman and all.

:36:30
You looked good today, kid.
Sharpest trooper I've seen all week.

:36:35
That includes them prima donnas
at Honour Guard Company.

:36:39
- Congratulations.
- Thanks, sergeant major.

:36:42
Goody, old Willow here...
:36:46
...he wants to go to Vietnam.
:36:48
He feels an infantryman's place
is at the front.

:36:52
There's no front in Vietnam.
:36:54
That's what Sergeant Hazard says.
:36:56
It's a funny little war, kid.
Things have changed.

:37:00
Like what?
:37:03
Well, to begin with...
:37:05
...the peace-loving Vietnamese...
- If I hear that again, I'll puke.

:37:11
They're bellicose. They've fought for
a thousand years, and they like it.

:37:16
Damn right.
:37:18
And I don't really give a rat's ass
about Vietnam.

:37:23
Really, I don't give a wombat's shit
about who's running Vietnam.

:37:28
To be very honest, I don't care
who's running the U.S.A.

:37:32
Don't you care about anything?
:37:34
Oh, yeah. I care about the
United States Army. That's my family.

:37:39
The only one I got. And I don't
like it when it's in trouble.

:37:43
Trouble? Sarge!
:37:46
We beat England when we were
the guerrillas, and we beat Hitler.

:37:51
We beat everybody in between.
:37:53
We're not gonna lose
to a bunch of little Asian farmers.

:37:57
Yeah? You take a look at that farmer.
