Brutal War and Survival Humanity

Capt. Roy Pritchett: We're getting replacements in from the channel, tonight you'll be fitted with a new squad. Congratulations Private, you're a sergeant now.

Pvt. David Manning: I don't want it.

Capt. Roy Pritchett: You'll get used to it.

Pvt. David Manning: I don't wanna get used to it.

Capt. Roy Pritchett: I don't give a damn what you want. I'll put up with that mouth of yours because I figure after surviving a week up here, you've earned that right. You have not earned the right to question my orders.

Pvt. David Manning: I am absolutely the wrong man.

Capt. Roy Pritchett: That may be your opinion Sergeant, but it's not mine. You managed to stay alive for a week, that's something the rest of your platoon couldn't do. Call me crazy, but from where I'm standing that makes you qualified for the job.

Lieutenant Colonel: [Reading from a file] Sergeant Manning has an excellent innate understanding of battlefield conditions. His ability to react to aggressive situations is unmatched by anybody in the company. His disrespect for authority is unable to hide his ability to lead. I strongly suggest that he be considered for the next platoon leader when and if the situation presents itself. Captain Roy Pritchett.

Lieutenant Colonel: If I'm not mistaken Sergeant, the situation has presented itself.
