All language subtitles for S10E18 Death at the Mosque

Sniper in the minaret!

Man down!

Corpsman! Corpsman's coming, sir.

Stay with us.

Hang tight.

You're going to be
all right.

Oh, my God.

Smith, Smith,
you and Quick get topside.

Secure that minaret. Yes, sir! Yes, sir!

All right, I want
the rest of you

to clear every square
inch of this building.

Let's make it happen!

Let's go. Let's go!

Fire in the hole!

Shooter!

Is he here? He's always here, sir.

Wait! You can't
go in there

looking like
a wild man.

There you are, sir.

Thanks, babe.

It's not "babe. "

It's Coates or Petty
Officer Coates.

I'm sorry.

My friends
call me Jen.

My friends call me Vic.

Enter.

Sorry I'm late, General.
I, uh...

No excuses.

At ease.

Yesterday, during combat ops
in Karbala,

a marine allegedly shot
an unarmed civilian

who had taken refuge
in the Martyr's Mosque.

I saw the incident, sir.

ZNN must have played
the tape 20 times.

There's no way that marine's
going to get a fair break.

Wrong. You're going to go
to Iraq and see that he does.

General Hugh Cardworthy
preferred charges

of unpremeditated murder.

One of his JAGs will prosecute.

You'll defend.

No worries, sir.

"No worries. "

Where did that awful expression
come from?

"All life is suffering. "

Buddha.

You familiar with Brad Holliman?

That's him, right?

He shot the
videotape.

He's the only
eyewitness.

He's also the prosecution's star
on the stand,

and he's covering
the trial.

That's got to be some kind of
conflict of interest, General.

It's ZNN, Lieutenant.

There are no rules.

Doc, any news?

I need to speak
to the father.

Look, no one's seen him
for days.

I need to know
what you know.

On a bender?

Right.

Look, I've examined
Mattie again,

taken another
look at the MRI,

and there's been
some change.

Is there hope?

Perhaps... if she regains
consciousness,

if she can breathe
on her own,

if feeling returns,

if she spends several months
in physical therapy...

That's a lot
of ifs, Doc.

Well, it's a hell of a lot
better than "No way," Commander.

Well, wh-when
will we know?

Today, next week,
two months from now.

The human body has a logic
of its own, Commander.

If you'll excuse me.

I've ordered my marines
to cooperate completely

with your investigation
and your defense.

Colonel Bootney
will preside.

Is there a problem?

No, sir, I'm just
a little surprised, that's all.

He recently presided over a case
of mine in San Diego.

Lieutenant, most
of the men here

were recently
somewhere else.

I understand, General.

Major Atkins will be
opposing counsel.

He's a pit bull.

That's not a surprise.
He's a marine.

More than that.

He was a tank commander
in the first Gulf War.

Turned to lawyering
after he lost a few body parts

in the Battle for Medina Ridge.

Sir, are you concerned
that I'm navy?

You are aware...

that marines aren't like
other people.

I've had my experiences
with marines, sir.

My CO is a marine.

I've argued my last two cases
with a marine.

You win or lose?

I won the first with her
as cocounsel,

and I beat her
in the second as defense.

To understand what happened
that night of the shooting

at the Martyr's Mosque,
you have to know what it's like

to be a marine, Lieutenant.

What our training is,

how we work, why
we do what we do.

I'll make sure I cover
that ground with diligence, sir.

Some reporters
don't belong

within a hundred miles
of the front lines.

TV news is the truth
on speed.

Who said that?

I believe I just did, sir.

Do you know Brad Holliman
personally, General?

I was interviewed
by him twice.

He asked good
questions.

But...?

It comes down to context again,
Lieutenant.

Mr. Holliman used my words
against me.

Maybe it should be
part of marine basic.

Go through a
house full of CS

without a gas mask,

a 20-mile forced march
with a 90-pound pack

and a 20-minute talk
with a reporter.

All the hard stuff.

Good morning, Jen.

Good morning, ma'am.

How was San Diego?

Okay, I guess, if
you like fresh air

and, you know,
bright sunshine

and Dungeness crab
right out of the ocean.

Did Vic behave himself?

Vic?

Lieutenant Vukovic.

He told me
to call him Vic.

I think he's kind of cute.

The lieutenant
clearly shares

your good opinion
of himself.

I know he's not your type.

No, not at all.
Is the general in?

Yes, ma'am.
He's expecting you.

Enter.

Colonel, please sit down.

I, uh, have a favor
to ask of you.

Anything, sir.

Well, after you hear what I have
to say, you may not think so.

I have a problem
at home.

No, uh, my wife
has not run off

with the pool boy.

In fact,
I don't have a pool.

Uh, my daughter.

Cammie.

What's the problem, sir?

You have plans
this evening?

Um, going over
paperwork, General.

Why don't you swing
by my house 2000.

Uh, you can talk
to Dora and me.

Aye, aye, sir.

That-that's not
an order, Mac.

I'll be there, sir.

Thank you.

That'll be all.

Oh, uh... any word
from Commander Rabb?

No, sir. I've tried
to reach him several times,

but I keep getting
voice mail.

I understand this young girl's
like a daughter to him.

Tell him to take all
the time he needs.

Sir.

I want you to start
at the beginning.

Don't leave out anything.

I know what I was thinking
at the time, sir,

but that videotape
says otherwise.

I want you to forget
about the tape for now.

How can I do that, sir,

when about two billion people
have seen it?

Because you're
a marine.

That's how.

Now, what was
your mission that day?

There were six of us
in the fire team, sir.

We were working our way street
by street through Karbala.

We'd been taking fire from
a minaret of a mosque.

The Martyr's Mosque?

Yes, sir.

Corporal Serkin
got hit.

Me and Private Quick pulled him
behind a wall to cover.

He died before the corpsman
even got to him.

And did that make you angry?

Not at the
time, sir.

All I wanted to do
was get inside that mosque

and take out the shooter
before he killed another marine.

The anger came later.

And was the ZNN cameraman
with you at that time?

Right with us, sir.

Those ZNN boys take
the same chances we do.

Okay, and what about
the reporter, um, Holliman?

Mr. Holliman stayed
with Corporal Serkin.

He held his hand when he died.

Did he have
a camera on?

No, sir.

Brad- uh,
Mr. Holliman-

he's not that
kind of guy.

He was embedded with
us for a month.

I didn't trust him
much at first,

but he did a lot of
great stuff for us.

Like what?

He let us use his sat
phone to call our folks.

He sent our letters back
with his dispatches.

All right, let's get
back to the day of the battle.

What happened next?

We fought our way
into the mosque.

Going in there
really bothered me, sir.

Why? You thought you were
desecrating a holy place?

Holy place?

That stopped being a holy place

as soon as they started
to store ammo there.

They were killing people by
shooting out the windows.

They had snipers up
on that minaret.

What bothered me was
that these Iraqi insurgents

had turned a house of God
into a killing ground.

How did you go about
securing the mosque?

We killed three
of them downstairs.

We checked for improvised
explosive devices,

then we started up the stairs.

And was the ZNN team
with you at the time?

Yes, sir.

The cameraman went up
ahead of us.

Without your knowledge
or consent?

Yes, sir.

He was going for the story.

His body just came flying
backwards.

Half of his face

was blown off.

And was, uh, Brad Holliman
still downstairs with you

when this happened?

Yes, sir. He'd taken cover.

What happened next?

Private Quick and I went
up the stairs.

Quick tossed a grenade into
the room, and then we went in.

What did you see?

The sniper was
pretty much blown apart.

There were two other men
in the room.

And they were wounded.
Yes, sir.

One raised his weapon to fire.
Quick dropped him.

But that's wasn't on
the ZNN film.

No, sir. Mr. Holliman

had come up
with us.

Private Quick had
already fired.

And that's when you shot
the second guy?

Yes, sir.

He was hit.

He was bleeding from a leg
wound, but he was conscious.

I had no way of knowing
that he wasn't armed.

I mean, these guys-
they surrender...

but then they're booby-trapped.

And bang, you're dead.

So, I fired

to protect myself... my team.

And I turned around, and
I realized that Mr. Holliman

had gotten it all on tape.

Brad Holliman?

You bring bourbon?

I wish I'd
thought of it.

Why the hell do I want
to talk to you?

Because I'm the
lawyer defending

Private First
Class Hoke Smith.

You know, the kid whose
life you're ruining.

That's not my intention.

He's a nice kid.

I'm just a news guy,
Lieutenant.

Go where the story leads me,
show what I find.

The clowns at
your network

are ripping
this kid apart.

That's nothing
to do with me.

You supplied the film
and the details.

I did.

Hoke Smith had a bad day.

What he did
got caught on tape.

Now he's got his ass
in a wringer.

The kid's 19,
Holliman.

He's looking to grow
old at Leavenworth.

He's collateral damage,
Lieutenant,

a casualty of war.

It sucks.

That's life.

Nassar?
Yes, sir.

All right, get us hooked up
to this live cam.

I want you
to know this was my idea.

Biff was afraid to ask you.

I wouldn't
exactly say "afraid. "

Well, my guess is he...
uh, led you to believe

that our daughter was pregnant,

which she is not.

Cammie has told us

that she wants to drop out
of the Naval Academy.

She told you, Dora.

I'm always the
last to know.

I'm surprised
at her decision.

Imagine how we felt.

Yeah, the general gave me
the impression

that she loved Annapolis.

She's having
second thoughts.

Our daughter is
increasingly

under the impression
that her gender

will hold her back
in the navy.

Well, she won't serve
on a submarine.

Or be a SEAL. But there are plenty

of other opportunities,
and women in the military

are breaking new ground
every year.

I mean, she can rise as high
as her abilities will take her.

I agree.

But you need
to tell her that.

Excuse me?

That's the
favor, Mac.

Talk to Cammie.

Let her know how much
things have changed

and will continue to change
for women in the service.

Well, I-I can do that, sir,

but, uh, what makes you think
she'll listen to me?

I do.

Voluntary manslaughter,

two years confinement and
bad conduct discharge.

Unpremeditated murder,
20 years,

dishonorable discharge.

30 months.

The man killed
an unarmed civilian.

Is that it?

Or is it that the shooting
was caught on tape

and shown around
the world?

I would never sacrifice
a marine

for the sake
of public relations.

But even PFC Smith
believes he's guilty.

He doesn't know what to
believe right now, sir.

All he knows is the
entire world thinks

he's a cold-blooded killer.

Well, plead the kid out.

You know, maybe the members
will cut him a break.

With good behavior,
he'll be out

by the time he's 35.

No deal.

We go to court-martial.

Hard to come up
with a defense.

I'm working on it.

PFC Smith is a marine.

He has the best combat
training in the world.

He was in the middle
of a firefight.

And?

I don't know
yet; I just...

I got a feeling there's
more to the story.

You're going to need
more than a feeling.

I trust my instincts.

You right more often
than you're wrong, Lieutenant?

So far, so good.

When you were going
through OCS,

you think about going
in the Marine Corps?

I didn't know if I
was tough enough.

Maybe one day
you'll find out.

How long were you embedded

with the First Marine Division?

36 days.

How many dispatches
did you file

during that time?

Thirty-four.

Describe what happened

on the afternoon
of March 28.

That was the first day
of the battle of Karbala.

My cameraman and I

were following Delta Company,
Third Platoon.

Private First Class Smith

was a member of Third Squad,
Second Fire Team.

Yes, Major.

He was a rifleman.

Fire Team Bravo
fought its way

into the Martyr's Mosque.

Amir and I
went with them.

Amir Ubadah was your cameraman?

Right. We first worked together
in Afghanistan, then Iraq.

He was killed that day?

After we went into the mosque,

he wanted a picture
from the minaret.

Went up the stairs,
took a gunshot to the face,

came tumbling back down.

You picked up
the camera?

I did.
Then, what happened?

I followed two marines
as they cleared the minaret.

Did you observe
Private First Class Smith

during that time?

I did.

Did you videotape him?

I did.
Your Honor,

I'd like to publish
the videotape to the members.

I'll allow it.

Can you describe

the events
that we're witnessing?

It would appear

that the man
is begging for his life.

Objection, Your Honor.

The witness
is expressing an opinion.

I'll allow it.

Please tell us
what happened next.

Uh, Hoke...

Hoke.

Private First Class Smith, yes?

Yes.

He shot the man.

Was the man unarmed?

Yes.

Did he pose a threat?

Objection, Your Honor.

The witness is a reporter,
not a trained marine.

This reporter
has been in-country

long enough to know, Your Honor.

Overruled.

You can answer the question.

In my estimation, no,

the civilian
did not pose a threat.

Thank you, Mr. Holliman.

No further questions.

Your witness, Lieutenant.

Mr. Holliman,

have you ever served
in the armed forces?

No.

So, you have no
military training.

You have no idea
how war is fought.

Objection.

Counsel is testifying.

Sustained.

Were you with
Delta Company

the day before the incident
at Martyr's Mosque?

I was.

Did you witness the death
of Private Brian David?

Unfortunately.

How did he die?

A wounded insurgent
was booby-trapped.

When Private David went to check
on the man's condition,

the insurgent
triggered the IED.

Did Private David
die right away?

He did not.

Was he still conscious?

Yes.

Was he screaming for his mother
and his god to save him?

Yes.

Did the other members
of Delta Company

witness his death?

Yes.

Can we see the videotape
of Private David's death?

There's no tape.
Why not?

Because we didn't make one.

The people back home

don't want to see
their sons dying.

So, you do select

what people see
and what they don't.

Was Private First
Class Smith himself

wounded on that day?

Yes.

Did he refuse
medical evacuation

so he could stay
with his fire team?

Yes.

Your Honor, no further questions
at this time.

I reserve the right
to recall the witness.

Hey, sorry
to come uninvited,

but I needed to find out
how you were.

I'm hanging in.

How is she?

It's too soon to tell.

I wanted to be here,
you know, if...

I mean, when she,
uh, wakes up.

Well, the General said

to take as much time
as you need.

Harm, why haven't you returned
any of my calls

since I got back
from San Diego?

'Cause you were going
to ask me questions

I can't answer, Mac,

tell me things
I didn't want to hear.

That's what
friends are for.

Well, this is my problem.

You look exhausted.

Somebody needs
to be here with her.

What about Tom?

How long?

I haven't seen him
for three days.

I keep hoping he's going
to sober up and come back.

Well, that may
never happen.

Have you notified
Social Services?

I wanted to be sure first.

Harm, you're an
officer of the court.

This isn't a
judgment call.

You have no option.

They'll take her
away from him, Mac,

make her a ward
of the state.

Not if you petition
for custody again.

She needs more
than a revolving door.

Is there anything I can do?

You perform miracles?

Why don't you go
get some rest,

let me be with her
for a while, okay?

Don't, don't, Mac.

Let me know when
you need me.

Lieutenant Vukovic,
call your first witness.

Thank you, Your Honor.

Defense calls Captain Ellis.

You're in command of
Delta Company? I am.

Were your troops involved in
the battle for Karbala? Yes.

Your men performed
with great bravery, sir.

You should be very proud.

Thank you.

How many men
did you lose?

Seven dead.

19 wounded.

How many enemy casualties
were there?

We counted
22 insurgents killed.

Offhand, do you know
how many mosques there are

in the city of Karbala?
Over 100.

Are any of these mosques
used to store weapons?

Yes. Many.

As cover?
Yes.

Do you consider a mosque

that has 100
RPG and IEDs

and has enemy combatants
firing from its minarets

a place of worship?
Objection.

Goes to state of
mind, Your Honor.

I'll allow it.

You may answer
the question.

No.

I consider it
a legitimate target.

So, this killing ground...

Objection. Editorializing.

Sustained.

Do your rules of engagement

allow you to attack
such a target?

Yes. Consider the men
inside enemy combatants?

Yes.

Can you please tell us
what happened

after Mr. Ubadah,
the ZNN cameraman, was shot?

I sent Smith and Quick
up the stairs

after the sniper.

Did you see what
happened next?

No. I was busy clearing
the rest of the building.

What did Private First Class
Smith tell you happened?

That Private Quick neutralized
the enemy combatant

who had shot Mr. Ubadah.

Then, Smith himself fired
on the second insurgent.

And that was
the incident

that was caught
on videotape?

Correct.

So, Private
First Class Smith

had reason to believe

the man that he shot
posed a threat?

Objection.
Calls for speculation.

The captain's
not a mind-reader.

Sustained.

Rephrase, Lieutenant.

PFC Smith had reason to believe
the insurgent he shot was armed?

That's correct,
Lieutenant.

Or he might be booby-trapped?
Yes.

We had... lost a man
in that fashion

the day before.

So, in your opinion,
was the shooting justified?

Yes.

We don't have the luxury

of casual deliberation
in combat,

especially when men
are getting blown up

and faces shot off
all around you.

Thank you, Captain.

No further questions.

Major, your witness.

When the civilian's body
was checked

after the shooting stopped,
was he armed?

No.

Was the body
booby-trapped?

Upon subsequent examination, no.

And he was trying to surrender?

Hand out in supplication?

I don't know that
for a fact, Major.

But you have eyes,
Captain.

You saw the videotape.

It's an unarmed civilian
pleading for his life.

Objection.
Argumentative.

Sustained.

No further questions.

...just outside
their barracks.

As rescue personnel
reach the scene...

Good evening, sir.
Lieutenant.

Well, I heard you were tough,
but I, uh...

You ready to throw
in the towel?

Fighting the impulse, Major.

In the blink
of an eye...

Major?

Battle at Medina Ridge.

You'd see a tank
two miles out

coming towards you
in a cloud of dust.

Friend or foe?

You had to
decide or die.

Did you, sir?

Make the right decision?

I made the right decision
too late.

Cost me a foot.

What made you hesitate?

To this day, I don't know.

I was the only one in my crew
seriously hurt.

For that,
I thank God.

But that's not what
I came to tell you.

Many times, the
decisions we make

in the blink of an eye

are the right ones.

Deal's still
on the table.

But you don't think
I should take it?

I never said that.

There are professional ethics
involved.

Thank you for coming, Colonel.

Oh, it's just nice to
be out of the cold.

Cammie has a bunch
of questions for you.

Mom.

Isn't there something
you're supposed to do?

Uh, yes, and this is it.

I can't talk in
front of you.

Since when?

Since now.

Please, Mom.

Give me some privacy.

Well, then, let me
take your coat, Colonel.

Thank you.
Sure.

I suck for doing
that, huh?

What did you
want to know?

Do they treat you fairly?

Who are they?

Did you ever
get passed over?

When I deserved it.

Do you ever get treated
worse than a man,

or get the short end of things

because you're not one?

I don't let that happen.

How did you get to be
who you are?

By making a
million mistakes,

and having to start over,
and being smarter,

and trying harder
the next time.

That's it?
Yeah.

There's no magic-
it's just hard work.

Now it's my turn to
ask a few questions.

What set this off?

Nothing.

Hmm.

I've told you my secrets,
so out with it.

I... I got a grade
in fundamentals of naval science

I didn't think was fair.

Based on what? Well, this dumb guy

in my class did better.

So, what else?

In high school, I was the
smartest girl in my class.

Now I'm no smarter than
about 8,000 other plebes.

You afraid your father
might be disappointed in you?

Yeah.

And my mom.

Hmm.

Pretty normal stuff.

What else?

Well, I met this guy.

Mike Roberts?

Commander Roberts
mentioned something

about a paintball game.

Yeah, he's such a jerk.

I mean, he really ticks me off.

You got it bad, huh?

My mom met my dad
when she was 18.

And that was it for her.

She knew three
seconds into it-

before she had
even kissed him-

that she'd marry him.

Some people would consider that
good fortune.

You ever loved anyone like that?

No.

Well, I don't want to.

It'll just get in the way.

Well, when you're older,

you might feel
a little different.

If you see him,
give me a call, huh?

You got it.

We need to talk.

She dead?

No.

Then, why are you bothering me?

You have got to pull
yourself together, Tom.

Why?

Because there's still hope.

You're lying.

Either way, there are decisions
to be made.

Then, why don't you
just make them?

Because I'm not
her legal guardian.

Well, you
will be soon.

You're going to report me
to Social Services.

What choice do I have?

Well, I've made mine.

I got one more
where that one came from.

Give me the keys, Tom.

No, I'm fine.

I'm fine!
I said leave me alone!

All clear, Lieutenant.

Sir, you are familiar
with the tactics of the enemy?

I am.
Is it customary

for a sniper to
use a spotter?

It is.

Someone to spot, to load

and to provide protection.

Is it possible that the
man who PFC Smith shot

was, in fact, a spotter?

It would make sense.

That could be
an explanation

why the man who
PFC Smith killed

was unarmed, correct?

Objection.
Calls for speculation.

Overruled.

Yes.

He would've had
no need of a weapon

until we entered the mosque.

In your professional
opinion, Captain,

is the spotter as much of
a threat to our forces

as the sniper who
pulls the trigger?

Absolutely.

The spotter's job
is to help kill

as many of the enemy as he can.

Your Honor, I would like
to offer defense exhibit A,

a videotape that was shot
earlier this morning

in the minaret
of the Martyr's Mosque.

Shot by whom?

By me, Your Honor.

Major Atkins?

No objection, Your Honor.

I was present at the time
the videotape was made.

Roll tape, please.

This suicide vest

was located within arm's reach

of the insurgent's
initial position.

He was almost on top of it
when PFC Smith

shot him.

One tug of the pull cord,

and the entire mosque
would have come down.

This man was not
pleading for his life.

He was reaching for a weapon.

Good morning.

Ah, good morning, sir.

Anything I can do for you,
General?

No.

Yeah. Only if...
Yes, sir.

I spoke with Cammie last night.

And no, you won't tell me
what you talked about.

I promised her complete

and absolute
confidentiality, General.

I could order you to tell.

Hell would freeze over
first, General.

I will say
one thing, however.

Your daughter
is beautiful and smart...

And strong-willed.

In that, she reminds me

of her father.

She'll go her own way,
and she'll be her own person.

And that's what you want.

Or should.

Have you been conspiring
with my wife?

No, sir.

She said the same thing
to me last night.

Well, then, maybe you should

give it some
consideration, General.

I have less trouble
with the 2,000 people

who serve under me than
I do with one daughter.

Get used to it.

Sir.

Will the president of the court

please publish the findings?

Private First Class Hoke Smith,
United States Marine Corps,

on the charge and specification
of unpremeditated murder,

this court-martial
finds you not guilty.

I'd like to thank the members.

This court's adjourned.

What happens now, sir?

You return to your unit.

You would've been
safer in the brig.

Thank you, sir.

Good job.

General.

Congratulations, Lieutenant.

Thank you, General.

Your new orders.

Courtesy of General Cresswell,
you're T.A.D. to my command.

At 1900, you're to accompany
the First Marine Division

back to Karbala.

But, sir, I...
JAG on the spot.

You'll provide R.O.E. advice
in a field environment.

You're with us, sir.

Looking right up the
backside of trouble.

I'm sorry.

For what?

Oh. Are you trying

to make me
feel worse?

Colonel MacKenzie's
pretty cool.

You know, she told
me some stuff.

Did you know that she
was an expert marksman?

No, but she is a marine.

I'm not surprised.

And that she
mediated

a hostage crisis
in Indonesia?

Impressive.

She made a good argument
for staying at the academy.

I mean, it's a first-rate
education, it's free...

Unless you drop out,

and then we're looking
at college tuition.

No pressure there.
I wouldn't be a parent

if I didn't apply
a little pressure.

She made a good case.

I'll try the navy.

That's all your dad and I
ever asked of you, sweetie.

I know how important you are
to Dad's career.

He couldn't do it without you.

Maybe it's not
a glamour job,

but I love having you
as my mother.

And if you tell anyone,
I will kill you.

Not even your dad?

Especially not Dad.

He'll get all mushy anyway.

Yeah, I know.

I love when marines cry.

Godspeed, gentlemen.

Thank you, sir.

This your idea, Major?

I thought maybe you'd like
to see some combat up close.

As part of my continuing
education?

One way of putting it.

I got your guy off the hook.

My guy?

I was trying
to put him in prison.

When you got shot up, sir,

did they happen
to hit you in the heart?

Never had one.

Good luck, Vic.

Ever been
in combat?

I've shot at a couple people,
but, uh, this is,

uh, old-school.

Yeah, you got your
flak and Kevlar.

Keep that helmet
buckled at all times.

But I don't want you
that close to danger.

Yeah.

I feel real safe here.

What the hell are you doing?

Just filed my story
on Hoke Smith.

Ate a little crow,

but what an ending,
though, huh?

Yeah, you haven't caused
enough trouble yet, have you?

Look, pal, what we have here
is a win-win situation.

I get a great story,
you get good press.

Why don't you tell that
to PFC Smith?

I just interviewed Hoke
live on air.

Bottom line, the system worked.

Nassar?

Here you are.

Come on, Vic, give
me five minutes,

and I'll make you
a household name.

It's not Vic.

It's Lieutenant Vukovic,
and screw you.

Mr. Holliman is embedded
with this unit

by order
of our battalion commander.

We are to give him
every courtesy.

I'm in a different chain
of command. You're T.A.D.

to the First Marine Division
and attached to my company,

which makes you
subject to my orders.

Who's the
lawyer here?

You.

Speaking of which,
you read the R.O.E.?

Got any advice?

Yeah, don't get shot.

Mmm. You're a good lawyer.

My guess is
you'll make a lousy soldier.

Soldier?

I'm not in the damn army.

I'm a lieutenant
in the United States Navy.

You're a long way
from the ocean, son.

How are you
doing, Hoke?

Scared, sir.

Why do I find
that comforting?

Hey, my mom said thanks.

What, Holliman

let you use his phone?

Yes, sir.

You might want to
keep your distance.

Last time, it almost
cost you 30 years.

Hey, why worry?

I got you.

Want to talk about scared
to death, Smith?

I didn't know how
I was going to defend you.

I didn't sleep for a week.

I just got lucky.

You went
with your instincts, sir.

Yeah.

Blink, blink.

Let's move out.

With all due respect,
Lieutenant,

keep everyone back here.

You don't have
to tell me twice, Captain.

Hey.

Captain!

Get down!

All right, let's go.

Secure the area.

Quick, blow that hatch.

Yeah, I said the hatch,
not the whole damn building.

Sorry, sir.
Smith, Quick, go.

You okay?

It's nothing.

Next time, kill him.

Shh!

Ortiz, with me.

You don't hear so good.

Captain?

All right, we've got some more
activity in the back.

Clear!

I've been hit.

You saved my life, Hoke.

Come on, let's get
you out of here, man.

Come on, Hoke.
You're going to be all right.

Get down these stairs.

Nassar, over here.

Let's get this.

Ah.

Shut that thing off!

Down!

Those were righteous
kills, Lieutenant.

We got them
all on film.

You stupid fool.

I was going to make you
a hero.

I want him brought
up on charges.

I think you'd better get back
to company area, Mr. Holliman.

Ah, come on. You can't do that.

This is great stuff.

You put my marines' lives
at risk

by exposing their position.

You violated the ground rules
we agreed upon.

I thought you were my friend.

I don't have friends.

I have fellow marines.

You okay, Hoke?

I'm all right, sir.

That makes four times
that you've been shot.

I think that qualifies you
for a trip home.

I'll settle for a
week in Germany, sir.

By the way, thanks
for saving my life back there.

You saved mine.
