Ouch. Ouch. 202
- Fuck it. I'm out.
- Yeah. I'm gonna go write the missus. 203
God knows what a girl will do
without reassurance. 204
Son of a bitch. 205
Hey, looks like we got a coupla seats
opening up. You wanna come join us? 206
Are you serious? 207
What, Injun poker?
Hey, how do you boys do that again? 208
Card on the head,
only fool can't see it is you. 209
You want to come on over, or what? 210
Cut me in. 211
I'm thinking Fiery Cross, high-low,
hoggers OK, ace plays both ways... 212
I'm thinking Fiery Cross, high-low,
hoggers OK, ace plays both ways... 213
Hey, don't let him scare you. 214
If you've ever played a high-low game, it's
like any other. Waste of time and money. 215
Well, ante up... Chief. 216
How'd you know I was a chief? 217
You must've seen me showering
with my war bonnet. 218
- Deal 'em up, deal 'em up.
- You know, we don't take wampum here. 219
Beautiful. 220
All right, then. 221
Orders finally came through. 222
We ship out tomorrow morning. 223
Destination: the island of Saipan, 224
which is one of the stepping stones
we gotta take on our road show to Tokyo. 225
It's of strategic importance
that we capture this island. 226
We can get ourselves
an advanced naval base 227
and an airstrip to land and refuel B-29's 228
and get our bombers
within range of Tokyo. 229
Now, Saipan is Japanese soil,
and there's 30,000 of 'em dug in. 230
They're gonna fight for every square inch, 231
because it's their home,
but we're gonna take it away from 'em! 232
Yeah! Kill me some Japs! 233
We're gonna be in front
of the whole damn division. 234
We're gonna be the eyes and the ears. 235
We're gonna be
sniffing out enemy positions, 236
coordinating the naval gunfire - 237
exactly what we've been training to do
for the last four months. All right? 238
Now, we got some new radiomen
from headquarters. 239
There's a Private Whitehorse... 240
and Yahzee... 241
and a couple of sergeants,
Enders and Henderson, 242
who, if I'm understanding
these orders correctly, 243
will be covering our Navajos' asses. 244
Goddamn you, Joe Enders! 245
..but I'm telling you, we'll be stepping
into our share of the shit nonetheless. 246
Any questions? 247
Sounds like you're dying. 248
These might help get rid of the taste. 249
Charlie and l, we both lost it
on the boat ride from San Diego. 250
Not many bodies of water in Arizona. |
