Sergeant Kovic
here to see you, sir.
Stand easy, sergeant.
Yeah, Kovic,
the lieutenant told me
that was
Yes, sir.
It was pretty bad.
Ran into a few
of them?
Yes, sir.
You want to see me
about something, Sergeant?
Yes, sir.
Like I said to the captain,
uh, sir...
it was a very
confusing day.
The villagers...
Yeah. I know about
the villagers, Sergeant.
They...
the villagers...
It was very,
very unfortunate.
The enemy used
the villagers as cover.
Yes, sir.
They popped up,
started firing.
We were
running back, sir.
It was real glary.
Very confusing,
and that's when
it happened, sir.
What happened?
Sir, that was when
Wilson was killed, sir.
Yeah, I know
about Wilson.
Sir, see...
he was
the last one out,
and that's when
it happened, sir.
Sir, I think
I might...
I might have
killed him, sir.
I don't think so.
He was coming up
over the dune.
I think I might
have killed him.
It's hard.
I was out a couple
of weeks ago.
Sometimes it's... very hard
to tell what's happening.
Yes, sir.
But, sir, I think
I killed Wilson.
I don't think so, Kovic.
But, sir, I want you
to know that...
Don't talk like that!
Don't tell me this sh*t.
I'll take your head off.
Is that clear?
Yes, sir.
That clear?
Yes, sir!
All right.
Carry on.
X.O. Ought to
court-martial his ass.
Sergeant K.
Get some sugar
in the blood.
Ain't no thing, dog.
Ain't nothing
but a thing, baby.
It's so hot out here, I want
to kill some motherfucking gooks.
Dog, you're sounding
like a b*tch, man.
Ain't nothing
but a thing.
Nothing but a thing.
It's so hot out
in this motherf***er,
this must be hell!
Or purgatory.
Where's the motherfucking devil at?
Take cover!
Take cover!
Take cover!
Snake 1-9er airborne,

Move forward!
Move forward!

Zap him with 250 mils
of happy juice
until he crashes out.
Just get him to sleep.
Open table!
Who's got a hot one?
What do we have?
His kidney
and liver are gone.
We better just kiss
this one goodbye.
All right, take off.
There's something
wrong with me.
