My only choice
was the Eastern Front.
1:31:08
I should have helped him
become a priest'
1:31:11
like so many other
over-sensitive adolescents.
1:31:15
His father protested.
1:31:17
I gave in.
1:31:19
I was a fool!
1:31:21
We have chaplains
at the front.
1:31:23
They don't shoot guns!
1:31:25
In any case, they're not shot at!
1:31:30
You're like Pitard..."Chatter on!"
1:31:34
He's a perfect imbecile!
1:31:37
Felix. Your general.
1:31:40
You can tell him from me.
1:31:42
Your general is a cretin.
1:31:44
Liautey called him "Pitiful Pitard".
1:31:48
One word from him
and Jean would be free.
1:31:51
But no! He spouts on.
What bombast!
1:31:57
While my poor little boy...
1:32:01
I'll show you his letters.
1:32:05
In one he writes how he took refuge
in a church during a patrol.
1:32:10
He was so exhausted, so worn out'
1:32:14
that he hadn't the strength to pray.
1:32:17
Him!
1:32:22
What wrong did he ever commit?
Tell me!
1:32:25
What has he done?
1:32:32
I see from your file
that you volunteered.
1:32:35
On a whim?
1:32:37
Well, no.
1:32:39
All my class signed up the same day.
1:32:41
And you went along?
1:32:45
You signed up... and deserted?
1:32:48
I didn't desert. I got lost.
1:32:55
De Scève
is your company commander?
1:32:58
Your opinion of him?
