The Dirty Dozen: The Fatal Mission Page #3

---

Blow up a prison to kill a prisoner?

Who's been talking to him?

Talking to him?

That's right, talking to him.

Now you look, I'm gonna

go up there and make a deal.

And I'm also gonna

make a promise.

Make sure you don't break it.

Do you understand?

You got it.

Hamilton?

Hamilton, this is Major Wright.

You know who I am

and I know who you are.

Hamilton?

I wanna talk to you.

I'm better off dying

right here and now.

I'll have a lot of company.

Now, what's your rush in dying?

You can't lose

anything by talking.

Okay.

Come ahead, then.

All right, I'm gonna lay it

on the line with you, Hamilton.

I can still use a man who can break

out of a maximum-security cell,

get up there,

and grab a machine gun.

Almost made it all the way.

As far as I know,

you haven't killed an MP

and you're gonna hang anyway

for a lot more than just

an attempted escape.

So, what the hell do

you want from me?

Why did you kill your wife?

Just mind your own business.

I met her in Paris.

Then the war came.

We made it to London.

So I went back to the U.S.

To join the Army.

Man, I broke my butt

to get back over here.

Then I went to her apartment.

She was living with an RAF captain.

He pulled a gun and said,

"N*ggers ain't welcome in Britain."

And then she laughed.

She laughed.

Why don't you put down your gun.

Surrender and I promise you...

you'll be training with the men

in the morning.

Army ain't gonna let you

keep that promise.

Oh, yes, they will. They need me,

and I got news for you:

They need you too.

Along with 11 other slobs

just like you.

Okay.

Okay, how you wanna work it?

You point that.30 calibre

downrange...

and you follow me home.

All right.

Everybody line up and count off.

- One.

- Two.

- Three.

- Four.

- Five.

- Six.

- Seven.

- Eight.

- Nine.

- Ten.

- Eleven.

- Twelve.

All right.

Now, by your presence,

you've indicated a strong desire

to volunteer for this mission,

which leaves you three ways to go.

You can foul up during training,

in which case you'll be sent back

to prison for execution of sentence.

Two, I mean,

you can foul up in action...

in which case I will personally

blow your brains out.

Or you can do what you're told,

in which case,

you may just get by.

Now, if any one of you

tries to escape...

you'll all be sent back

for execution of sentence.

Therefore, you're all dependent

on one another.

And if anybody tries to get smart,

you'll all get it

right in the head, right?

Right.

Now, due to the contingency

nature of this mission

and the deteriorating relations

between Private Hamilton

and the staff and the MPs

of Forbes Road Prison...

you've been sent out

here into the field
