Quiet!

Velron

Long Verne

Don't blunder.

- Who do you think I am?

Hurry up.

- I do what I can.

Truck!

Hide!

Faster!

All Velron-Ites have

hairy asses

Krauts.

That was close.

I do not believe my eyes!

You're back!

It's been so long! We must

celebrate! Plum gin. This.

I make it myself.

Do you remember?

It kept me going in Saigon.

Protected against all diseases and flies.

To the colonial regiment!

Bottoms up, if you are not a wimp!

Go!

We were supposed to stay.

We were not allowed to come back.

What do you think?

You're right, you should not think.

You should drink.

Come, I must show you something.

Little Gibus!

- Hey, little Gibus!

Where is he?

- I knew this would be a problem.

But what could I do?

He followed me.

I'm really glad, dwarf.

These are my souvenirs.

Twelve years in the legion.

Sidi, bel abbes, Casablanca.

And then on the ship and...

Saigon, Bien Hoa, Cao bang...

I was 'admiral. ' Even this

yellow-Skinned shorty respected...

And the women... one look

at the uniform and they

Laid right on their backs

and spread their legs.

I was somebody.

I fought for France.

Eight injuries

But Im still alive!

- Sorry.

To the colonial regiment, by golly!

- The colonial regiment, by golly!

Aren't you ashamed to see him drink?

Never too early to start.

- Enough already.

Give me your glass.

What are you doing here, slap cock?

- What kind of disrespect

to the guest is this!

I immediately recognized him. The spirit

of the dwarf. He was killed at Bien Hoa.

He is a long Vern-Ian.

No.

He died in my arms.

I told him that we will be together.

And here he is! Here he is!

You have not changed, dwarf.

Still the same size.

And always up for a party.

Do you remember?

Hey, we'll chop on their sausages,

we will chop them on?

For all the guys from

the north and south.

Damn Belgians who shoot themselves

in their own legs.

Damn Belgians who shoot

their own legs.

Have you seen him?

- No, have you?

Me neither.

Goodbye, mister Aztec.

You are always welcome, dwarf.

We are friends through thick and thin.

Thank you, captain... captain!

At ease! Quick march!

Hey, we'll make them share

their sausage, share their sausage

Oh, dwarf...

that's really your brother.

Super-secret operation!

Yes, he's drunk.

Shh! Enough is enough! Stop it!

There she is, there she is!

Where are the heads as here

are the a**holes!

You guys are hilarious.

So you've never touched it.

And you wouldn't know what

to do with it if you had.

I know what I need to do

to draw a girl's attention.

This works with her.

- Oh, really? Well, look.

Nothing's happening.

Hey... you're new?

- And you're Lebrac?

A... yes.
