Had to work twice as hard
as everybody else, be twice as good.

:15:06
She'd never let her guard down,
show any sign of weakness.

:15:10
But she was tough. She could handle it.
:15:13
So, ladies and gentlemen,
what I have to say to you in closing...

:15:17
is to go forth,
:15:18
to command wisely,
:15:20
to advise prudently,
:15:22
to protect with vigilance...
:15:24
and to judge with care.
:15:27
And above all,
:15:29
to defend with all your heart,
all your soul...

:15:33
and all your courage...
:15:35
the lives of the men and women
under your command,

:15:39
and the United States of America.
:15:43
Are you now saying
you'll report against her getting the medal?

:15:47
As I explained to the White House,
there should be a further investigation...

:15:50
before we move forward.
The discrepancies...

:15:52
Another matter completely.
Write up a second report.

:15:55
That's my point, sir!
:15:56
Ilario's disappeared. Altameyer's missing.
:15:59
- Who?
- Altameyer, sir. Walden's crew chief.

:16:01
VA hospital's transferred him out
three weeks ago.

:16:03
Paperwork's missing.
:16:05
Doesn't he have any family?
:16:06
Negative.
:16:07
Fucking VA. We can't wait, Nat.
:16:09
You cannot imagine
the kind of heat I'm getting on this.

:16:12
Everybody wants it.
:16:14
Senators, congressmen, one shiny
piece of something for people to believe in.

:16:20
Whole episode.
:16:21
Walden or Al Bathra?
:16:23
Both, damn it, both.
:16:25
Submit your report today.
:16:26
I'm sorry, sir.
:16:29
I won't put my name
on an incomplete report.

:16:32
May I remind you who recommended you
for this when no-one else'd touch you?

:16:36
You saying you chose me
because I wouldn't rock the boat?

:16:39
Dereliction of duty,
drunk and disorderly, conduct unbecoming.

:16:42
At best, a dishonourable discharge.
:16:44
At worst, Al Bathra gives us
plenty of grounds, if we want 'em.

:16:47
At least somebody has finally said it.
:16:50
Nat, don't do this. I could give you
a direct order to submit your report.

:16:54
Yes, you could.
