(0.00 / 0 votes)- Get Gifford out.
- Yes, sir.
Hey, Gifford.
Gifford!
Get your gear.
Get that arm up, Gifford.
You're still in the army.
Colonel Miles wants to see you.
Come on.
Inside.
Here's the prisoner, sir.
Gifford.
I've been investigating your case.
Ordinarily I'd turn this sort of
thing over to a court-martial,
but in this instance
you hold a well-earned Silver Star,
your record till now has been excellent,
and you've shown
definite qualities of leadership.
You know, I was gonna recommend
you for a battlefield commission.
Why'd you do it, Gifford?
I think you lost control of yourself.
That can happen,
especially with men who've been
out here for a long time.
Is that it?
Off the record, you're
good for ten years in
Leavenworth and a
dishonorable discharge.
Yes, sir.
But on the record,
tell you what I've decided.
I can't have you in this area.
It's bad for discipline, bad for morale.
in the hills:
George Company.They're in a very isolated area.
Half the time the road up there
is cut off by the enemy.
Can't even use field phones.
Have to contact 'em on radio.
I've spoken to
the Second Battalion commander.
We're reassigning you to George.
Lieutenant. Turn this man over
to the driver from George Company.
Yes, sir.
Don't give him this
until you're out of the area.
Here.
if you feel like it. I don't care.
Anybody but me.
- My name's Willie Crawford.
- Sam Gifford.
How come you got transferred
to George?
It was that or Leavenworth.
Shoulda took Leavenworth.
Taste of tobacco juice?
Yeah.
Always does.
What'd they get you for?
Assaulting an officer
under combat circumstances.
For a fact? Hurt him bad?
Nearly killed him.
Shoulda shot him.
You'da been sure of killin' him.
That's George Company's sector there.
On most of them hills
we got outposts.
Down there, that's
our company headquarters.
That's where Waco is.
Get the lead out, Willie.
Send that mallethead in here.
- Yes, sir.
- What was that?
I mean, yes, Waco.
I'm bringin' him.
I didn't say bring him.
I said send him!
Yes, Waco. Get in there.
That's the captain.
Put your rifle down right there,
buddy.
I said put the rifle down.
Give me the papers.
And Swanson? Go and tell that mallethead
he's not gonna drive the jeep anymore.
He knows what I said
about calling me sir.
I don't say anything
a second time.
Who do you want
driving it, Waco?
That's my worry. Just
go do what I told you.
I've heard about you, Gifford.
First you go get yourself a Silver Star,
then you get busted to private.
- Oh, it's a rough war, ain't it?
- Yes, sir.
Didn't you hear what I said
about calling me sir?
- I'm sorry... Waco.
- All right.
I don't want snipers takin' potshots at me
every time one of you guys call me sir.
You hit an officer under combat conditions.
What was his rank, captain or what?
- Lieutenant.
- Oh, lieutenant.
Shoulda killed him.
I was trying to.
Samuel F. Gifford.
- What's the "F" stand for?
- Francis, sir.
- I mean, Waco.
- That's better.
You know, I got a sister
named Frances.
Hey, Millard. Frances
is a girl's name, ain't it?
Yeah. You got a girl's name,
Gifford.
Francis?
- You know anything about radio procedure?
- Yes, Waco.
OK, you're my radio operator.
You'll work right over there till I
get tired of lookin' at your kisser.
Oh, another thing, Gifford.
You ain't gonna hit me. If you do,
you'll never hit anybody again.
You hear me?
Hey, this is real stuff.
Just gimme this chick's number, boy,
and when I get state...
