Hey, you.

This the group going to the Air Force?

That's where I'm driving the bus to.

You want a reserved seat?

Save the jokes for the plowboys.

Fill it out. Last name, first name,

Hey, look,

they're bringing a fella in bracelets.

Finally latched onto him, Mr. McKinney?

- Did he give you any trouble?

- Trouble?

Ain't no draft dodger

gonna give me any trouble.

Had to borrow the sheriff's handcuffs.

That'll hold you

till I get you on that bus.

- But, Mr. McKinney, I ain't dodging nothing.

- Shut up.

Let me have it.

Fill it out. Last name first, first name,

- I did. Close to a year.

- What's your name?

- Blanchard, Irving S.

Irving? Okay, Irving.

I'm setting you in charge

of this here group.

When you

get to your classification center...

...give these forms

to the sergeant of your barracks.

- What about him?

- Keep them cuffs on him. Here are the keys.

It took me three months

to flush him out of them hills...

...so see that he don't get away.

Come on in my office, Dave,

I'll give you your money.

Whew.

You hear what he said, Plowboy?

I don't want any trouble, you understand?

- Me, neither, Irving.

- My name's Blanchard to you.

It's a real pleasure.

You getting smart with me, Plowboy?

I don't wanna hear one peep out of you.

Not one peep.

All right, I ain't had my morning coffee,

so I ain't gonna wait around to see you off.

Now, Irving here's in charge.

Callville is proud of her sons in uniform...

...so show them

what kind of men we raise here.

And be good.

And if you can't be good, be careful.
