How is the painting coming?

So, just pay for it.

Don't worry about it, that's why l'm here.

Ifs cheaper over here.

Gosia.

It cost 35 dollars to build the bomb

that blew up 10 Yanks yesterday.

NO,

I'm not trying to scare you but

you're whining about the price

of some frigging paint

and that is completely unimportant.

YES.

That's how I see it,

but I'm not whining.

Fine,

well, tell the kids that...

No, don't tell them anything.

OK, see you. Bye.

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10... F***!

F***!

OK, shut it, let him concentrate.

- Sergeant, may I ask for the ball back?

- You call your brother Sergeant?

Ask me by name,

I have a name, don't I?

Man, I have a name.

Well?

Sergeant, may l'.

Ask for the ball back?

This is the Army, not a circus.

F***!

- You can't even stick up for yourself.

- F*** off!

Wanna say something?

F***ing ball...

Why are you f***ing with him like that?

We had a different deal.

He wasn't supposed to come.

Leave her alone!

- Don't have any.

- Give me one.

Whafs with the parade?

Big Brother has business.

What, is something up?

No idea.

F*** that, we've got to

catch some sleep then.

Let's go with the boards.

Give me another one.

I need another one still.

And wrap it with tape all around.

Stop cutting, stop!

Stop here.

Ours or ragheads?

Ragheads I think.

Dismount to secure positions.

Roien, Tiny, you're with me.

F***, check it out.

Get out of here, now!

Lieutenant, make the shift change

then report.

Hi.

- Bulgarians here?

- Yeah, they showed up an hour ago.

Their commandefs name is...

- I can't remember but it ends in -ov.

- All their names end in - ov.

- How many ragheads on duty?

- About ten stayed.

Is it calm?

Calm?

Calm like in Karbala.

These Bulgarians are special ops.

They gave you commandos for body guards.

- We'll see you tomorrow in Lima.

- So long.

Not too long ago, I could

talk with you in Russian.

But, in the end, it doesn't matter.

Big Brothers code still stands.

Only the Brother has changed.

Officially, for 72 hours.

And unofficially?

Captain, Sir'? Some son

of fight downstairs.

Captain, he jumped Malehczuk and

started a brawl.

OK, enough.

Corporal Malericzuk, what happened?

Lieutenant Sobariski, to your duties.

And you go back to your cell.

Want them to lynch you?

Why me and not orderly Malericzuk?

The order to aid the wounded

was not for him?

Did anybody even ask him why he

did nothing then?

There was nothing we could do.

You want them to escort you by force?

Captain,

until I leave,

please allow me to do my duties

as per my contract.

Last night I saw the local

policemen run away.

That officer, that one, he saw it too.

You're going to need all hands.
