Medal of Victory

You Mcmasters?
Where's your father?
- Who are you?
- Who am I?
Harry Maddox,
Townville financial.
I'm the owner of this sh*t hole.
- He's not here. -Yes, I
know he's not f***ing here.
- But where is he?
- At work.
And what about you, son?
You work?
I use that to make
a little on weekends.
- How much?
- For you? 100 bucks.
100 bucks?
all alone.
No dad,
no adult.
Just you
in this dumpy little palace here
all by yourself.
Your father owes me $23,000.
And as much as I'd like you
to mow my lawn
230 times...
He's gotta pay.
- Where is he?
- I told you.
Tell me again!
Perhaps I'm not making myself
clear to you.
A, tell me where your father is.
B...
Let's say you don't
wanna know that option.
Plan b?
- Wait.
- Just a second, son.
No!
Wait!
I don't know where he is!
It's been over a month!
Spark plugs maybe.
He has a girlfriend!
- Where?
- I don't know.
No! No! No!
Cut the engine.
Cut it!
Now, get in your car and leave.
You got 48 hours
to get outta here.
You don't live here anymore.
And I'll be seeing you around,
won't I, sweetie-pie?
Sure will.
Go down to miss Johnson's.
She'll find you a place to stay.
Okay?
Ugh! And stay out
of trouble.
Cutshaw, way back!
Oh! Hey, that totally
would have gone in.
Where's this crate?
That crate is in the classified
sector until the 23rd.
No, it's not.
How long till the plane
takes off?
- 20 minutes.
- How far to the airfield?
- 20 miles.
- No problem.
Think that shitty
American junker's
gonna make it to the airfield?
Pardon you, but under the
hood of that junker's
a 402 big block with a 650
carburetor and a 12 bolt rear end.
This beast has 850,000
f***ing miles left on it.
We're gonna catch
that goddamn plane, sergeant.
- Buckle up.
Nuclear fusion triggers, sir.
Do you even know what a nuclear
fusion trigger is, sergeant?
Yes, sir. It's an electrical
component that initiates
Sir, I was unaware of that fact.
Shut your bullwash,
you f***ing pogue!
At ease.
Do you know what was supposed
to be on that plane?
Yes, sir.
Food, sir.
Right again.
Nutritious, delicious food
for the starving nation
of Malawi.
Unbelievable.
You ever been hungry, Mcmasters?
He doesn't know a damn thing
about being hungry.
Captain, there was a mistake
with the inventory, sir.
The... the barcodes,
there was an error,
after which the crate was placed
in the unclassified section,
not the classified.
Barcodes.
Mcmasters,
pulverized your career.
Do you have any idea how far up
this is going to go?
- Sir, i...
- Go ahead.
Apologize, it'll go on record.
Captain Starke, sir,
understandably you are very upset.
We all are.
You have been a mentor
to me, and I'm...
- I'm sorry.
- Enough!
Now I'm gonna go on record.
Mcmasters, as sergeant first
class of the fortune cargo bay,
you along with
sergeant Stuart Cutshaw,
are responsible for sending
nuclear fusion triggers
to Zomba, Malawi.
In doing so, you violated
countless rules and regulations
of the United States
armed forces
and jeopardized the national
security of the United States.
- Sir, if I could just explain.
- No!
No, you'll shut the f*** up
is what you'll do.
I trusted you, Mcmasters.
I trusted you and you blew it.
I have to go to the bathroom.
Let the investigator
know they're here.
Oh, Jesus.
Come on, Unitas.
Prick.
They're really gonna love f***ing
you at fort sill, aren't they?
Can you believe this sh*t?
I'm the one who started
that food program,
me, and nobody else
even wanted it.
So I sent the wrong crate
one time,
one time.
Will you, please?
I mean, how many
right crates were sent?
How many little bellies
are now filled
with nutritious foodstuffs?
I don't know,
Which one's Unitas's car?
That one.
With a program like this,
mistakes happen,
all the time.
Starke's throwing me
under the bus.
Two years I kissed
that guy's ass.
You know, he once tried
to kiss me when he was drunk.
Really?
How much cash do you got?
- Not much. You?
- Not much.
Mcmasters, how the f*** is that?
You're like the biggest
spender I know.
Yeah, don't worry,
I have credit cards.
What, are you f***ing high?
That's the first place
they'll look
to try to trace us.
We need cash.
And... there.
Townville.
How long since
you been home, Princess?
F*** that town.
We're not stopping there.
- You don't know anyone there?
- No.
No family?
Friends? Baby mama?
Drop it already.
It ain't happening.
How about this option?
What are you doing?
Do not turn
into that bar, sergeant.
Come on.
One drink.
The MP's haven't
talked to the cops yet.
Posse Comitatus, motherf***er.
How do you know
who's talked to anybody?
Get back on the road.
Come on!
Have one drink.
You're blocking the door.
Game on, player.
Ted crump, a Townville man,
beloved by all.
The champion of progress,
the Townville way.
Yes, friend, as your mayor,
we've had some good years
here in Townville.
Let's have a few more together.
What is that noise?
We love Ted. We love Ted.
Oh, my goodness!
I'm Ted crump
and you know who I am!
This Tuesday, vote crump.
Crump! Crump! Crump!
We always had a few
Afghan army with us.
They would just stop
in the middle of patrol
and then just roll up a joint
- Jesus Christ.
- Like, on patrol.
So you ever been to Kabul there,
soldier Slapnuts?
That's on a need
to know basis, turd.
Hey, my name
is Paul Gerard, marines.
Floyd.
Army.
Yeah, all right.

So are you gonna be
one of those guys
that come back fatter?
What you drinking there?
Sour apple liqueur.
Rocks.
Barman!
Two sour apple liqueur, rocks.
You didn't have to do that.
But I wanted to.
It's my favorite drink.
A lamb cooked on stone,
delicious.
Sprinkle a little
gun powder on it...
I'm serious.
You'll try it.
Can you get us
another one, please?
- Okay.
- That one's on me.
Save it.
All of them?
Yeah, some kind
of charity, right?
Why?
Paul here won
the medal of victory.
Come on.
Tell him about it.
Tell him about it.
Come on.
All right, all right.
Me and my 12-man team,
there was a tree line,
a creek, tree line.
We are first group
of guys across
the little creek.
I don't know
what they stepped on,
but they were killed instantly.
Heavy machine guns, RPGs,
I mean, they were just
lighting us up.
So you let off
just to get
control your breathing.
a few guys to my left and right,
you know, their guns
stopped firing.
I looked around,
everybody was dead.
Sorry, man.
Then I ran over to one of my
buddies who carries the saw,
you know...
It had full machine gun...
Full auto.
I linked up
