Hurry, call him back.
Yes, Sergeant!
How much time do we have?
About forty-five seconds, Sergeant.
Well, hurry up we can’t fail.
Why not? Who cares anyway?
I do! And you had better care Private!
Why?
If we fail this gunnery test we repeat all of the training!
And if we pass?
Than, we graduate and go to Iraq.
To kill people?
No, just our enemies!
But I am a Christian, Sergeant!
I know and so am I. How many seconds are left?
Five Sergeant.
Good, that means we finished with two seconds to go.
So now we pass exams to kill our enemies Sergeant?
No Private, not pass exams, but learn to defend what we believe in.
Even at the cost of a human life?
No, even at a cost of a human life, Sergeant!
