[ Reporter ] THROUGHOUT THE
SUNNY TWO HOURS AT NOON, THE SKY
WAS FULL OF ALLIED PLANES...

GIVING CLOSE SUPPORT
AND BOUND ON BOMBING

LATE LAST NIGHT,

FRONT-LINE CORRESPONDENTS
REPORTED THAT
GENERAL PATTON'S 7th ARMY,

PRESSING TOWARD
THE GERMAN BORDER,

HAD LINKED UP WITH
GENERAL PATTON'S 3rd ARMY
SOUTH OF THE FRONTIER.

OKAY, HARRY, LET'S GO!

COLONEL ADAMS?
WELCOME TO INDIA, SIR.

CAPTAIN GUNTHER,
AREA PUBLIC RELATIONS

CAPTAIN.
GENERAL KEMPTON
ASKED ME TO MEET YOU.

DID YOU HAVE
A GOOD TRIP?

I WAS HAVING A GOOD TRIP
TILL I GOT HIJACKED ON
THAT CRATE IN COLOMBO.

YOU'LL FIND IT
A LITTLE QUIETER HERE
THAN IN NORMANDY, SIR.

YOUR BAGGAGE, SIR?
LET ME TAKE CARE
OF THE FORMALITIES HERE.

GEN. KEMPTON WOULD LIKE
TO SEE YOU AT HEADQUARTERS
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

THIS IS CORPORAL BAXTER.

GENERAL WON'T
KEEP YOU LONG, SIR.

FINE.

HOW ARE THINGS
IN EUROPE?

WELL, FROM WHAT I COULD SEE
FROM THE KING GEORGE V HOSPITAL,
LUTON, BEDFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND,

GREAT.

I'VE ALREADY ACQUAINTED
GEN. CUNNINGHAM WITH THE REASONS
FOR THIS FOUR-WEEK DELAY.

I'M AWARE OF THAT,
SIR.

SO YOU CAN GIVE THE GENERAL MY
PERSONAL PROMISE THAT THE AFFAIR
WILL BE CLEARED UP THIS WEEK.

THE COURT-MARTIAL
WILL TAKE PLACE ON MONDAY.
UNDOUBTEDLY, WINSTON WILL HANG.

GENTLEMEN.
TRIED TO DO THAT TWO HOURS AGO!
NOW GET MOVING!

[ Chattering Continues ]

[ Man ]
GET CORPORAL McCARTHY
OVER HERE RIGHT AWAY.

BARNEY!
BARNEY, MY BOY!

MY GOSH, WHERE IS
THAT SKINNY SECOND LIEUTENANT
I LEFT AT FORT BRAGG?

WHAT IS THIS?
THAT'S WHAT EIGHT MONTHS IN
A HOSPITAL BED DOES TO YOU.

HOW IS THE LEG?
AND, JOHNNY, I'LL NEED
THAT TRANSPORT BREAKDOWN.

COME ON IN.
SIR.
UH, SIR?

WILL IT KEEP, MAJOR?
SEE ME AFTER I'M FINISHED
WITH COLONEL ADAMS. OKAY?

SIT DOWN, BARNEY.
WHAT DO YOU HEAR
FROM YOUR FATHER?

HE STILL SWEATS VINEGAR,
SIR.
I'LL BET HE DOES.

GENERAL ADAMS. I CAN'T IMAGINE
THAT MAN IN RETIREMENT.
[ Phone Buzzes ]

YES?

YOU'VE GOT ME WRONG,
COLONEL.

I DIDN'T PROPOSE REPLACEMENTS.
I ORDERED REPLACEMENTS.

WELL, BARNEY,
I'D HOPED TO SEE YOU
A FULL-BIRD COLONEL BY NOW.

SO HAD I, SIR.
MAYBE IF I'D JUMPED
INSTEAD OF DUCKED.

SIT DOWN, BARNEY. I'VE GOT
AN ASSIGNMENT HERE FOR YOU
THAT'S RIGHT DOWN YOUR ALLEY.

WE'RE GONNA PUT SOME OF
THAT LEGAL TRAINING OF YOURS
TO GOOD USE.

LEGAL TRAINING?

I HAVEN'T CRACKED A LAW BOOK
SINCE THE JUDGE ADVOCATE'S
DEPARTMENT.

THAT'S 14--
THAT'S 15 YEARS.

AH, DON'T GIVE ME THAT.

YOU DID PRETTY WELL IN LAW
AT THE POINT, AND YOU KNOW IT.

WE'RE HOLDING AN IMPORTANT
COURT-MARTIAL HERE NEXT WEEK.
I NEED YOUR HELP.

- WELL--
- ARE THOSE URGENT, JOHNNY?

- YES, SIR.
- LET ME GIVE YOU
THE FACTS ANYWAY.

THERE'S A HILL STATION
CALLED BACHREE
ABOUT 50 MILES FROM HERE.

FOUR WEEKS AGO,
STAFF SERGEANT ALFRED QUINN
OF THE BRITISH ARMY...

WAS MURDERED BY
SECOND LIEUTENANT
CHARLES WINSTON...

OF THE ARMY
OF THE UNITED STATES.

I'LL KEEP THIS ONE
FOR THE CONFERENCE, JOHNNY.

QUINN WAS UNARMED.
WINSTON SHOT HIM AT CLOSE RANGE.
THERE WERE 11 EYEWITNESSES.

HE'S CONFESSED.
THANK YOU, JOHNNY.

- AND THOSE ARE THE FACTS.
- I'M READY FOR ANY ASSIGNMENT
YOU HAVE FOR ME, GENERAL.

LET ME TELL YOU WHY
THE CASE IS IMPORTANT, BARNEY.

WE HAVE DUAL RESPONSIBILITY WITH
THE BRITISH IN THIS THEATER.

IT'S NO SECRET THAT ALL IS NOT
JOY AND BROTHERHOOD BETWEEN US
AND OUR BRITISH COUSINS.

- SO I'VE NOTICED.
- ELEVEN EYEWITNESSES, BARNEY.

WE COULDN'T PLAY IT DOWN.
THE EFFECT ON MORALE
WAS DEVASTATING.

I'VE CANCELED ALL LEAVES,
I'VE CLAMPED DOWN A CURFEW.

BUT YOU CAN'T PUT
A WHOLE ARMY
UNDER LOCK AND KEY.

IT'S GETTING SO A MAN
CAN'T CROSS TOWN WITHOUT
GETTING INTO AN ALLEY FIGHT.

BARNEY, THIS THEATER
IS THE SPRINGBOARD
FOR THE LAST ALL-OUT OFFENSIVE.

I CAN'T TELL YOU,
BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW MYSELF
WHEN THAT OFFENSIVE BEGINS.

BUT WHEN IT DOES, BY GOD,
I WANT TO SEE US FIGHTING
THE ENEMY AND NOT EACH OTHER.

SO, FOR THE SAKE
OF THIS THEATER,
THE ALLIANCE AND THE WAR,

LT. WINSTON WILL BE TRIED,
FOUND GUILTY AND HANGED.

I'M WITH YOU, GENERAL.
I'LL BE GLAD TO HANDLE
THE PROSECUTION.

I DON'T WANT YOU
FOR THE PROSECUTION.
I WANT YOU FOR THE DEFENSE.

[ Plane Passes Overhead ]

BUT IF HE'S GUILTY ANYWAY--
[ Knocking ]

CHIEFS OF STAFF CONFERENCE
IN FIVE MINUTES, SIR.

I'M ON MY WAY,
JOHNNY.

HE'S GUILTY, AND THE ARMY
WANTS A CONVICTION, BUT IT'S
GOT TO BE WITHOUT LOOPHOLES.

I'VE GOT TO HAVE
A SATISFACTORY, INTELLIGENT
AND RESPONSIBLE DEFENSE.

I SHOULDN'T THINK THAT
WOULD BE TOO DIFFICULT, SIR.

ISN'T THERE SOMEBODY IN
THE JUDGE ADVOCATE'S OFFICE?

I DON'T WANT ANY OF THOSE
TWO-BIT, TIME-SERVING
CIVILIAN LAWYERS.

I'M AN ARMY MAN.
I WANT AN ARMY MAN BEHIND ME.

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT
COURT-MARTIAL.

I WANT A GOOD PROSECUTION,
I WANT A GOOD DEFENSE.
I WANT YOU, BARNEY. WITH ME?

WHEN DO I START, SIR?
YOU GOT AN APPOINTMENT
WITH THE JUDGE ADVOCATE AT 2:00.

AS FOR ME,
I'VE GOT AN APPOINTMENT
RIGHT NOW.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU, BARNEY.
WHEN YOU WRITE TO YOUR FATHER,
GIVE HIM MY BEST.

SIR, IT'S--
NOT NOW, MAJOR.
I LEFT FIVE MINUTES AGO.

COLONEL ADAMS, I'M HONORED
TO MAKE YOUR ACQUAINTANCE.
COLONEL THOMPSON.

SIT DOWN.
MAY I SAY THAT YOU'VE COME
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I'VE SEEN YOUR RECORD.

I WAS TEMPTED TO
DEMAND YOU AS A PERMANENT
MEMBER OF MY STAFF.

YOU MIGHT FEEL DIFFERENTLY
AFTER THE TRIAL, COLONEL.
WE'VE GOT SOME GOOD MEN HERE.

THE TRIAL OFFICER--
MAJOR FRED SMITH.
FINE FELLA.

ELEVEN YEARS WITH
WILLISTEN, GOODE AND HONEYSETT.

- DO YOU KNOW THE FIRM?
- NO, BUT I SAW THE MOVIE.

COLONEL, LOOK,
I NEVER PRACTICED CIVILIAN LAW.

MILITARY LAW EITHER,
TO ANY EXTENT.

YOU HAVE YOUR RIBBONS.
THERE'S A WAR ON.

WILLISTEN, GOODE AND HONEYSETT
DON'T AMOUNT TO A ROW OF BEANS.

A PURPLE HEART
AND A SILVER STAR DO.
THAT'S IMPRESSIVE.

I TELL YOU,
I COULD HAVE USED YOU
AS THE TRIAL OFFICER.

WELL, IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING
THAT IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE
WHO'S PROSECUTING AND DEFENDING.

IN TERMS OF A CONVICTION,
YOU'RE RIGHT.

THERE'S TOO MUCH TALK
THAT WINSTON WILL HANG BECAUSE
OUR BRITISH COUSINS WANT IT.

SURE, THEY WANT IT.
THEY'VE GOT EVERY RIGHT.

SURE, IT'S IMPORTANT.
THE UNITY OF THE THEATER
IS IMPORTANT.

BUT MORE IMPORTANT IS THE FACT
THAT THIS MAN IS A MURDERER...

AND HE WILL DIE BECAUSE
MURDER CANNOT BE TOLERATED.

- RIGHT?
- WELL, I AM
THE DEFENSE COUNSEL.

INDEED YOU ARE, SIR.

AND I'M LOOKING TO YOU
TO ACQUIRE A THOROUGH KNOWLEDGE
OF THE CASE.

YOUR CLIENT IS WAITING FOR YOU.
GO AND SEE HIM.

REMEMBER THAT I AM ALWAYS
AT YOUR DISPOSAL.

FEEL FREE TO USE THE DEPARTMENT
IN ANY WAY THAT YOU WISH.
WE'RE HERE TO SERVE.

REMEMBER, BARNEY,
WE HAVE BEEN WITH THIS
FOR WEEKS.

NOW, THERE'S NOTHING WE WANT
MORE THAN TO FINISH WITH IT
AND WIPE THE SLATE CLEAN...

SO THAT THE WHOLE WORLD
CAN LOOK AT THIS CASE AND SAY,

"THERE, BY GOD,
IS DUE PROCESS
OF THE LAW."

DO YOU PLAY GOLF?
THE BRITISH HAVE
A VERY GOOD CLUB HERE.

MY NAME IS ADAMS.

I'VE BEEN APPOINTED
YOUR DEFENSE COUNSEL.

ON YOUR FEET,
WINSTON.

LOOK, I'M HERE
TO HELP YOU.

WELL!

SILVER STAR.

PURPLE HEART.

[ Clicks Tongue ]
BIG DEAL.

YOU WON'T GET ANY MEDALS
FOR DEFENDING ME, COLONEL.

MEDALS OR NOT,
YOU'VE AGREED TO ME
AS YOUR DEFENSE COUNSEL.

I WOULD HAVE AGREED
TO A GORILLA BEING
MY DEFENSE COUNSEL, COLONEL.

LOOK, WINSTON,
I'VE GOT FOUR DAYS IN WHICH
TO PREPARE YOUR CASE.

I'VE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE TO SEE
AND A LOT OF PAPERS TO READ.

SO WHEN I WALK IN HERE,
YOU CUT OUT THE WISECRACKS.

WHEN I ASK A QUESTION,
YOU ANSWER IT. RIGHT?

- DO YOU REALLY
WANT TO HELP ME, COLONEL?
- THAT'S WHAT I'M HERE FOR.

EVERY MORNING,
WHEN THEY BRING IN
MY BREAKFAST,

I ASK FOR RYE BREAD.

EVERY MORNING
THEY BRING IN WHOLE WHEAT.

COULD YOU DO SOMETHING
ABOUT THAT, COLONEL?

YOU'RE A GREAT COMEDIAN,
WINSTON. UNFORTUNATELY,
I HAVE NO SENSE OF HUMOR.

WE WORKED 48 HOURS,

WE THOUGHT WE'D DISCUSS
THE POSSIBILITY OF

IT'S BEEN MADE PLAIN THAT THE

I DON'T PROPOSE
TO USE ANY CHALLENGES.

I'M AFRAID I DON'T
FOLLOW YOU, COLONEL.

I'M NOT GOING TO CHALLENGE
ANY MEMBER OF THE COURT.

IN ORDER
TO CHALLENGE AN OFFICER,
I'VE GOT TO SHOW CAUSE. RIGHT?

I KNOW, SIR.

YOU MEN ARE CIVILIAN LAWYERS.
YOU'VE GOT A LIVING
TO GO BACK TO.

I MAKE MY LIVING RIGHT HERE
IN THE ARMY, GENTLEMEN.

CAN'T YOU SEE ME CHALLENGING
A SENIOR OFFICER ON THE GROUNDS
THAT HE'S A BIRDBRAIN?

HAVE YOU MEN
TALKED TO WINSTON?

NO, SIR.
DIFFICULT MAN
TO DEAL WITH.

EXAMINED BY A LUNACY COMMISSION,
FOUND SANE, FIT TO STAND TRIAL.

THINK I'LL JUST MOSEY ON OVER
TO THE HOSPITAL,

TALK TO SOME OF THOSE DOCTORS,
GET A LEAD ON THE BEST WAY
OF GETTING THROUGH TO HIM.

YOU MUST APPRECIATE, COLONEL,
THAT I'VE GOT 1,200 CASES HERE.

NOT ONLY DISEASE--
CHOLERA, MALARIA, DYSENTERY.

I'M THE BASE GENERAL HOSPITAL
FOR THE BURMA WAR-- WOUNDS,
INFECTIONS, BATTLE FATIGUE.

THERE'S
A CONSTANT AIRLIFT.

HUNDREDS OF NEW CASES
EVERY DAY.
I DO APPRECIATE THAT.

BUT I'M JUST TRYING
TO GET A GENERAL
PICTURE OF THE MAN,

SOMETHING
THAT MIGHT HELP ME
GET THROUGH TO HIM.

WE WEREN'T CONCERNED WITH
GETTING THROUGH TO HIM.

OUR JOB WAS SIMPLY
TO ESTABLISH THAT HE COULD
DISTINGUISH RIGHT FROM WRONG.

THANK YOU, SIR.
WELL, ANYTHING
YOU REMEMBER, COLONEL.

AFTER ALL, YOU DID HEAD
THE LUNACY COMMISSION.

OH, HE WAS UNCOUTH.
HE WAS UN-OFFICER-LIKE.
UNCOOPERATIVE.

YOU MUST REALIZE, COLONEL,
THAT LUNACY BOARDS ARE--

WELL, PERHAPS "NORMAL"
IS THE WRONG WORD.

BUT LET ME SAY
THAT THEY ARE NOT UNUSUAL
IN THIS THEATER.

WE HAVE MEN
CRACKING UP EVERY DAY,
ONE WAY AND ANOTHER.

YOU ASKED FOR
AN IMPRESSION.

MY ONLY IMPRESSION IS THAT
THERE WAS NO REASON TO SEND
WINSTON TO THIS HOSPITAL.

GOOD MORNING.
GOOD MORNING,

I SUPPOSE SOMEBODY
WAS JUST PLAYING IT SAFE.

I DON'T WANT TO
WASTE YOUR TIME.

CAN YOU REMEMBER
WHO RECOMMENDED LT. WINSTON
TO THE LUNACY BOARD?

WELL, AGAIN,
IT'S DIFFICULT.

MY PSYCHIATRISTS
ARE SHIPPING PEOPLE
OVER TO ME EVERY DAY.

I'M AFRAID THEY'RE TRYING
TO MAKE A SCHIZOPHRENIC OUT OF
EVERY CASE OF BATTLE FATIGUE.

- YES, NURSE?
- FROM DR. KAUFMAN.

HELLO.

THANK YOU, NURSE.

I COULD CHECK THROUGH
MY RECORDS, I SUPPOSE.

THAT PROBABLY
WON'T BE NECESSARY,
COLONEL.

I'M GOING TO SEE WINSTON
AGAIN TODAY. WE'LL JUST SEE
HOW IT TURNS OUT.

I DON'T ENVY YOU YOUR JOB
DEFENDING THAT MAN.

IT'S AN ASSIGNMENT, SIR.
I APOLOGIZE
FOR BEING SO BUSY.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE
I CAN TELL YOU?
I SHOULDN'T THINK SO.

SORRY TO HAVE INTRUDED.
I'M AFRAID I HAVEN'T
BEEN MUCH HELP.

I CAN DO, PLEASE CALL ME.
WE CAN FIND SOME TIME TOGETHER.

OR I'D HAVE REPORTED SICK.

- YOU ARE DEFENDING WINSTON?
- YEAH.

COLONEL BURTON KNOWS VERY WELL
WHO EXAMINED WINSTON.

IT WAS DR. KAUFMAN,
THE HEAD OF PSYCHIATRY.
I WAS THERE. I WORK FOR HIM.

THEN, GETTING DOWN TO CASES,
WILL HE LET YOU HAVE
THE EVENING OFF?

MAJOR KAUFMAN
FOUND WINSTON INSANE.

DON'T TAKE ANY NOTICE
OF COLONEL BURTON.

HE HASN'T GOT ANYTHING LIKE
DR. KAUFMAN'S QUALIFICATIONS.

HE'S THE COMMANDING OFFICER.
THAT GIVES HIM QUALIFICATIONS.

I DON'T LIKE IT
WHEN MEN LIKE LEO KAUFMAN
GET SHOVED AROUND.

WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME IS,
A MAJOR HAD A RUN-IN WITH
A COLONEL, AND THE COLONEL WON.

COLONELS USUALLY DO, YOU KNOW.
NOW, HOW ABOUT DINNER?

NO, THANK YOU.
I'M BUSY.

TAKE IT EASY, SOLDIER.
THE FIRST 10 MILES
ARE THE ROUGHEST.

WE'RE RIGHT OUTSIDE,

MAKES YOU LIKE THAT.

LIKE I SAID,
I'M JUST HERE TO HELP YOU.
YOU CAN'T HELP ME, COLONEL.

I CAN DEFEND YOU IN COURT.
NO MATTER WHAT YOU DID,
YOU'RE ENTITLED TO A FAIR TRIAL.

I KILLED A MAN, COLONEL.
THEY SAY THERE'S
NO DEFENSE FOR THAT.

WHY DID YOU DO IT?

YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE ME.

TRY ME.

COLONEL, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT THIS WAR IS ALL ABOUT?

I'VE GOT A COUPLE
OF THEORIES, YEAH.

THEY'D BE WRONG,
BELIEVE ME.

THE WAR IS NOTHING.
IT'S WHAT'S GOING TO
HAPPEN AFTER THAT COUNTS.

IT'S GOING TO START
RIGHT HERE IN ASIA.

EAST AGAINST WEST,
BLACK AGAINST WHITE.

SUPPOSE WE PUT THE POLITICAL
DISCUSSIONS ASIDE FOR THE MOMENT
AND GET DOWN TO CASES.

ALL RIGHT THEN.

SERGEANT QUINN
WAS NOT ON OUR SIDE.

HE WAS ON THE OTHER.
HE WAS A BAD INFLUENCE.

HE WAS SPREADING SEDITION.
HE WAS ALTOGETHER AN EVIL MAN.

HE'D SIT
AND SPOUT DEMOCRACY.

THEN HE'D GO OUT.

WHERE'D HE GO?

UP INTO THE HILLS.
ONE OF THOSE NATIVE VILLAGES.

HE HAD WOMEN UP THERE.

BLACK WOMEN.
I SAW HIM!

AND THEN HE'D COME BACK
AND TELL US ABOUT
THIS BRAVE NEW WORLD...

THAT HE AND HIS BLACK BROTHERS
WERE GOING TO MAKE
AFTER THE WAR WAS OVER.

WELL, I MEAN, COLONEL,
I COULD JUST TAKE
SO MUCH OF THAT.

WINSTON,
IT'S MY EXPERIENCE...

THAT A MAN RARELY KILLS
FOR AN IDEAL.

DIDN'T YOU HAVE
SOME PERSONAL REASON
FOR KILLING QUINN?

YOU HAVEN'T LISTENED TO
ONE WORD I'VE SAID, HAVE YOU?

I'M JUST TRYING
TO UNDERSTAND YOU.

YOU KNOW,
MEN LIKE YOU MAKE ME SICK.

YOU'RE SO BUSY
AT ACTING THE HERO
AND WINNING YOUR WAR...

AND SCRAMBLING UP YOUR LATTICE
FOR PROMOTION, YOU CAN'T SEE
FURTHER THAN THE NEXT RUNG!

YOU MAKE ME
WANNA THROW UP!

IN WHAT WAY CAN I HELP YOU?

RIGHT?

MM-HMM.
WHY WAS HE BROUGHT HERE
IN THE FIRST PLACE?

IT WAS A FORMALITY.

HE KILLED A MAN IN COLD BLOOD
AND, APPARENTLY, WITHOUT REASON.

OBVIOUSLY,
HE HAD TO BE EXAMINED.
WHAT WERE YOUR CONCLUSIONS?

THAT IS CONFIDENTIAL.

I AM THE DEFENSE COUNSEL

ADMITTEDLY, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO TALK NOW.

BUT I CAN ORDER YOU TO
APPEAR BEFORE ME AND TELL ME
EVERYTHING I WANT TO KNOW.

- SO WHY DON'T WE DISCUSS THIS
LIKE SENSIBLE PEOPLE?
- THERE'S NOTHING TO DISCUSS.

ON WINSTON'S CONDITION WHICH

I KNOW YOU WROTE A REPORT.
I WANT TO KNOW
WHAT WAS IN THAT REPORT.

FOR A SENIOR OFFICER...

YOU SEEM TO KNOW VERY LITTLE
ABOUT ARMY PROTOCOL.

I WROTE A REPORT ON WINSTON
WHICH WAS REJECTED.

I WAS ORDERED TO DISCHARGE HIM
FROM THE HOSPITAL,
AND I REFUSED.

FROM THAT POINT ON,
HE WAS NO LONGER
MY RESPONSIBILITY.

HE IS NOT

THERE WAS AN URGENT REQUIREMENT
FOR A DOCTOR AT THE
MALARIA HOSPITAL UP IN SIKRI.

HE SENDS
HIS APOLOGIES.

I ORDERED HIM HERE.

IT WAS A PRETTY URGENT

HIM UP THIS AFTERNOON.

THERE'S A SHORTAGE
OF STAFF UP THERE.

FROM GENERAL KEMPTON HIMSELF.

OH, IT DID, HUH?

IS HERE, SIR.

COLONEL ADAMS?
SHOW HIM IN, MAN!
SHOW HIM IN!

YOU THERE, BARNEY?

GENERAL, DO YOU WANT ME
TO DEFEND WINSTON,

OR JUST GET UP IN COURT
AND TELL JOKES?

I'LL BE WITH YOU IN A MINUTE.
YOU'VE ALREADY HANDED ME
A RIFLE LOADED WITH BLANKS.

- DO YOU HAVE TO
TAKE AWAY THE BOLT TOO?
- I'M NOT WITH YOU, BARNEY.

I DON'T WISH TO BE

BUT YOU JUST PLUCKED
MY ONLY WITNESS RIGHT OUT
FROM UNDER MY NOSE.

THAT'S TOUGH LUCK, EH?
HAND ME THAT TOWEL, WOULD YOU?

I'VE GOT TWO DAYS
IN WHICH TO PREPARE A CASE.

BARNEY-- BARNEY,
IF YOU HAD A YEAR,

YOU'RE STILL DEFENDING
A CONFESSED MURDERER.

IT'S A FORMALITY.
YOU KNOW IT'S A FORMALITY.

NOW,
WHERE'S THAT ROBE?

GENERAL, WHY WAS
KAUFMAN TRANSFERRED?

OH, NOW, BARNEY,
YOU DON'T THINK THAT EVERY TIME
I TRANSFER AN OFFICER...

I CAN TAKE TIME OUT TO CHECK
IF HE'S GONNA BE NEEDED AS
A COURT-MARTIAL WITNESS.

DON'T START WITH ME,
PLEASE, GENERAL.
WHY DID YOU TRANSFER KAUFMAN?

THE EXIGENCIES OF WAR,
BARNEY.

ALL RIGHT,
PLAY IT THAT WAY.

BUT FOR MY PART,
I WANT OFF THE CASE.

WOULD YOU LOCATE
GENERAL CUNNINGHAM FOR ME?
HE MAY STILL BE AT HEADQUARTERS.

ALL RIGHT, BARNEY,
I'LL LAY IT ON THE TABLE
FOR YOU.

I HAVE NO DOUBT
THAT BY NOW...

YOU'VE HEARD ABOUT
WINSTON'S BROTHER-IN-LAW.

YOU MEAN THE CONGRESSMAN?
NOW, THAT'S ANOTHER THING--

I MEANT TO TELL YOU ABOUT HIM,
BUT I WAS IN A HELL OF A RUSH.

THIS FELLA IS
A ONE-MAN WASHINGTON.

I'VE GOT A FILE
OF WIRES FROM HIM
AS THICK AS YOUR ARM--

WHO'S DEFENDING WINSTON?
WHAT ARE HIS QUALIFICATIONS?
OBJECTION. OBJECTION.

THEN THE BRITISH SNIPING AT ME,
BAYING FOR BLOOD.

BY WHAT AUTHORITY HAVE I
POSTPONED A COURT-MARTIAL?

WELL, BARNEY, I'M NO HERO.

I'VE HAD THE ARMY
BEHIND ME ON THIS CASE,

BUT THEY'VE TAKEN
ALL THE DELAY AND DITHERING
THEY'RE GONNA TAKE.

SO IF YOU'RE WORRIED, BARNEY,
YOU'LL HAVE TO STAY WORRIED.

I WILL NOT HAVE
ANOTHER POSTPONEMENT.

GENERAL, HAVE YOU CONSIDERED
THAT WINSTON MIGHT BE INSANE?

OH, THE HELL WITH THAT.
OBVIOUSLY, HE'S NOT NORMAL.

NORMAL PEOPLE
DON'T SHOOT OTHER PEOPLE DEAD.

- IF THAT'S YOUR IDEA
OF A DEFENSE, FORGET IT.
- WHAT OTHER DEFENSE IS THERE?

THAT'S YOUR JOB,
NOT MINE.

BUT WE DO HAVE THE WORD
OF A LUNACY BOARD THAT WINSTON
CAN RECOGNIZE RIGHT FROM WRONG,

AND YOU HAVEN'T GOT
A SNOWBALL'S CHANCE IN HELL
OF PROVING OTHERWISE.

SO DO US BOTH A FAVOR-- FIND A
DEFENSE THAT CAN'T BE TOSSED OUT
IN TWO AND A HALF MINUTES FLAT.

- LOOK, DO YOU THINK
I FIXED THIS TRIAL?
- NO, SIR.

I FIXED THE LUNACY BOARD?
NO, SIR.

WHEN I SAY ANYTHING IS WORTH
THE PRICE IF IT BRINGS UNITY,
YOU KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.

BUT I'M NOT SO SURE
WE BRING UNITY
BY HANGING A SICK MAN.

IF WINSTON'S DEATH
COULD SHORTEN THIS WAR,
EVEN BY MOMENTS,

IT BECOMES
THE ONE POSITIVE FACT
OF HIS LIFE.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK
I'M WASTING MY TIME?

WELL, IT'S A BIT OF A FARCE,
ISN'T IT?

YOU BEEN OUT HERE LONG?

DO YOU KNOW WINSTON WELL?

AS WELL AS I KNOW
ANYONE HERE.

I'M UP AT
SUPPLY HEADQUARTERS.

THIS IS ONLY ONE
OF HALF A DOZEN STATIONS
ON MY PARISH.

BUT I SPOKE TO HIM
OCCASIONALLY.

TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH,
I HAD DEVELOPED THE HABIT...

OF NIPPING VERY SMARTLY
ROUND THE SIDE OF THE HUTS
WHEN I SAW HIM COMING.

- COMPLETELY OFF HIS CHUMP,
YOU KNOW.
- WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

WHY, HE'S CRACKERS.

YOU KNOW THAT.

I'VE NEVER HEARD
OF A MURDERER YET...

BUT SOMEONE DIDN'T SAY
HE WAS CRAZY.

LOOK, MAJOR,
I'M NOT A DOCTOR.

I'M NOT EVEN A LAWYER.
I'M JUST A SOLDIER.

THE ONLY THING I DO KNOW
IS THAT WINSTON
IS A CONFESSED MURDERER.

WELL,
YOU'RE DEFENDING HIM, DUCKY.

WHY NOT? YOU'VE GOT TO
GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS,
HAVEN'T YOU?

NOW, WAIT A MINUTE--
OH, COME OFF IT.

I KNOW THE SCORE.

YOU CAN PLEAD ANYTHING
FOR WINSTON EXCEPT INSANITY,

BECAUSE IF HE'S INSANE,
HE'S NOT GUILTY, RIGHT?

BUT HE'S GOT TO
BE FOUND GUILTY,
BECAUSE HE'S GOT TO HANG.

AND HE'S GOT TO HANG,

IF ONLY TO SAVE
THE AMERICAN COMMAND FROM
A GOOD DEAL OF EMBARRASSMENT.

HE'S GOT TO HANG
BECAUSE HE'S A MURDERER.

HE'S MAD,
ALL THE SAME.

THE MAN'S A PARANOIAC.
HE'S AN INCURABLE
PSYCHOPATH.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUALIFICATIONS
FOR SAYING THAT?

I'M A PSYCHIATRIST.

THEN WHAT ARE YOU DOING
IN A DUMP LIKE THIS?

YOU MAY WELL ASK.

I HAPPENED TO TAKE
THE VIEW THAT A CERTAIN
LIAISON OFFICER...

WAS TOO SICK
TO RESUME HIS DUTIES.

THEY HAPPENED TO NEED
A LIAISON OFFICER
AT THAT TIME...

MORE THAN THEY NEEDED
A PSYCHIATRIST.

SO HERE I AM,
INSPECTING NETHER PORTIONS.

AT THE SUGGESTION,
I MAY SAY,
OF THE AMERICAN COMMAND.

I TAKE IT
YOU DON'T LIKE AMERICANS.

OH, I CAN TAKE 'EM
OR LEAVE 'EM.

YOU SEEM TO HAVE
ALL THE CLEVER ANSWERS, MAJOR.

IF YOU'RE SO SURE THAT WINSTON
IS INSANE, WHY HAVEN'T YOU
COME FORWARD AND SAID SO?

WELL, WHY THE HELL SHOULD I?

I WAS TOLD POINTEDLY ENOUGH
IT WAS NONE OF MY BUSINESS WHEN
I SENT HIM DOWN TO THE HOSPITAL.

I HAVE BEEN SPECIALLY ORDERED
TO KEEP MY NOSE OUT OF IT ALL,
AND THAT I'LL DO.

IF YOU WANT TO PROVE HIM INSANE,
THERE'S SOMEONE DOWN THERE THAT
CAN DO IT IN FIVE MINUTES.

KAUFMAN.
GO AND SEE KAUFMAN.

WHEN DID YOU
LAST SEE WINSTON?

THE NIGHT OF THE MURDER,
AS THEY SAY.

I WAS CALLED OVER
TO SEE IF I COULD DO ANYTHING
FOR POOR OLD QUINN.

WINSTON HAD RATHER SENSIBLY
RETIRED TO HIS HUT,

AND THERE WERE ABOUT
FOUR BODS GUARDING HIM.

DID YOU TALK TO HIM?

YES, I DID, AND A RUDDY
DIFFICULT JOB IT WAS TOO.

HE SIMPLY SAT THERE
STARING IN FRONT OF HIM.

HOWEVER, EVENTUALLY
HE BEGAN TO TALK.

WHAT ABOUT?
OH, THE USUAL JUNK.

ALL ABOUT THE TEEMING MILLIONS
PLOTTING TO OVERTHROW THE WORLD.

SURELY HE'S MENTIONED IT.

- HE TALK ABOUT QUINN?
- NO, HE SEEMED TO HAVE
FORGOTTEN ALL ABOUT QUINN.

I CAN TELL YOU
WHY HE KILLED HIM,
IF THAT'S WHAT'S WORRYING YOU.

MAJOR KENSINGTON.
YES, CORPORAL?

YOU SEE, THERE'S
NO BRITISH OFFICER
HERE IN BACHREE.

AS SENIOR BRITISH N.C.O.,
QUINN HAD ROUGHLY
THE SAME RESPONSIBILITIES...

AS WINSTON HAD
AS AN AMERICAN OFFICER.

THIS ALWAYS
NETTLED WINSTON.

HE HELD THAT THERE
WAS SOME MYSTERIOUS
PLOT AFOOT...

TO KEEP HIM FROM
A MORE RESPONSIBLE JOB.

PERFECTLY TRUE,
OF COURSE.

THE CHAP WAS
TOTALLY INCOMPETENT.

THAT'S STILL NO REASON
FOR KILLING A MAN.

HAVEN'T YOU?

HE'S A VERY HONEST MAN TOO.
IF HE TELLS YOU SOMETHING,
YOU CAN BELIEVE IT.

YEAH.

I'M SORRY.
YOU DON'T WANT TO
TALK ABOUT IT.

CAN I COOK YOU
SOMETHING?

YOU MEAN GIRLS
STILL DO THE COOKING?

WOW. HAVE I BEEN
OUT OF TOUCH.

- AREN'T YOU MARRIED?
- NOPE.

WHY?
DON'T TAKE ME TOO LITERALLY.
I WAS MARRIED ONCE.

SHE JUST GOT TIRED
OF CHASING ME AROUND
FROM CAMP TO CAMP.

AFTER A WHILE,
SHE FORGOT WHO
SHE WAS CHASING.

AND SINCE THEN?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN,
"SINCE THEN?"

HALF THE WORLD IS WOMEN.
DON'T ANY OF THEM LOVE YOU?

OH, I SUPPOSE
SOME OF THEM DO,
SOME DON'T.

ANY HAPPINESS
THAT WAY?

[ Chuckles ]

HAPPINESS IS NOT
VERY HIGH ON THE LIST
OF ARMY PRIORITIES, HONEY.

WHERE YOU CAN.

EVEN THE PLACE DOESN'T MAKE
ANY DIFFERENCE BECAUSE TOMORROW

GIVE UP, DO YOU?
MM-MMM.

NOPE.

[ Sighs ]

THE TROUBLE WITH
THE WINSTON AFFAIR, KATE,

IS THAT EVERYBODY'S
IN THE RIGHT.

SOME PEOPLE THINK HE'S INSANE
AND SHOULDN'T BE HANGED,

AND SOME OF 'EM COULDN'T
GIVE A HOOT IN HELL...

WHETHER HE'S SANE
OR INSANE.

THEY THINK THAT THERE
ARE BIGGER THINGS AT STAKE
THAN WINSTON,

THAT THERE'S A WAR
TO BE WON.

HE'S JUST THERE
TO BE SACRIFICED
LIKE ANY ONE OF US.

WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE,

HE SEEMS TO ENJOY STANDING UP
ON HIS HIND LEGS AND SAYING
WHAT HE'S BEEN TOLD TO SAY.

YOU COULD BE RIGHT.
I KNOW I'M RIGHT.
I ONCE KNEW A CASE--

YOU MIND REPEATING THAT?
I SAY, LOOK HERE.
WAIT A MINUTE.

AH, NUTS. HE KNOWS
WHAT I'M SAYING.

I WAS ONLY SAYING THAT
YOU GOT A LOUSY ASSIGNMENT.

AS OF NOW, CHUM,
SO DO YOU.

[ Knocking ]

[ Knocking Continues ]

[ Thunder Rumbling ]
[ Knocking Continues ]

MAY I COME IN?
AFTER A LITTLE MORE
HAPPINESS?

I THINK I LEFT A REPORT
HERE THIS MORNING.

[ Thunder Continues ]

COME IN.

- HOW FAR IS IT
TO THE SIKRI HOSPITAL?
- NEARLY A HUNDRED MILES.

MMM. I'M GONNA HAVE
A LONG DRIVE.

YOU ARE GOING TO SEE
MAJOR KAUFMAN?
YES.

ARE YOU SURE
HE'S GOING TO HELP YOU?

I THINK I KNOW MY MAN.
WHY NOW, BARNEY?

WHY HAVE YOU
SUDDENLY DECIDED...

TO DEFEND WINSTON?

I'M NOT DEFENDING
WINSTON, KATE.
I'M DEFENDING MYSELF.

I SUPPOSE YOU THINK
IT'S A LITTLE LATE
FOR THAT, HUH?

YOU HAVE BEEN AN ARMY MAN
FOR 18 YEARS.

YOU HAVE BEEN
ON THE WINSTON CASE
FOR FOUR DAYS.

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN DOING
TOO BADLY.

WELL, YOU CAN TAKE THAT
AND USE IT TO WRAP
SOUVENIRS IN.

I WANT YOU
TO PREPARE ME A NEW BRIEF.
WE'RE PLEADING INSANITY.

YES, SIR.
BENDER, I WANT YOU
TO GO TO RECORDS.

BREAK IN, IF NECESSARY.

GET EVERY POSSIBLE WORD
YOU CAN FIND
ON COLONEL BURTON...

AND ALL THE OTHER OFFICERS
ON THE LUNACY BOARD.

COLONEL BURTON WILL NEVER
ADMIT INSANITY, SIR.
NO, BUT KAUFMAN WILL.

HE'S UP COUNTRY.
I KNOW THAT.

YOU WANT US
TO CONTACT HIM?
NO, THANK YOU.

YOU MENTION KAUFMAN'S NAME
ON THE TELEPHONE, HE'LL BE OFF
TO THE PHILIPPINES BY MORNING.

I WANT HIM THERE IN COURT,
BECAUSE WITHOUT HIM
WE HAVEN'T GOT A CASE.

YOU BRING ME THE BRIEF,
GENTLEMEN, I'LL BRING YOU
THE WITNESS.

[ Vehicle Approaching ]

CAN I HELP YOU, SIR?
WHERE CAN I FIND
THE OFFICERS' QUARTERS?

BLOCK 34.
STRAIGHT UP, RIGHT,
AND THEN LEFT.

THANK YOU.
YOU'RE WELCOME.

[ Snoring ]

THANKS.

[ Whispering ]
MAJOR. KAUFMAN.
HMM? WHAT IS IT?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

HEY, QUIET!

I WANT YOU TO COME DOWN
TO THE TRIAL IN THE MORNING
AND GIVE EVIDENCE FOR WINSTON.

[ Chuckles ]
YOU'VE COME A LONG WAY
TO ASK A SILLY QUESTION.

[ Man ]
HEY, KEEP IT DOWN, HUH?

I'M NOT ASKING, MAJOR.
I'M ORDERING YOU.

YOU CAN ORDER ME
TO APPEAR,

BUT YOU CAN'T ORDER ME
TO GIVE THE TESTIMONY
YOU WANT.

YOU PREPARED
TO SEE HIM HANG?

HEY, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!
SHUT UP, HUH?

LOOK, BUSTER, UNLESS
YOU CAN PULL RANK ON ME--
AND I'M A LIEUTENANT COLONEL--

YOU JUST STICK A PILLOW
OVER YOUR HEAD.

ARE YOU PREPARED
TO SEE HIM HANG?

LOOK, I'VE DONE ALL
THAT I COULD DO.

WHEN BURTON ASKED ME
TO DECLARE WINSTON SANE,
I REFUSED.

I DIDN'T HAVE TO REFUSE.

I JUST COULDN'T SIGN
THAT PAPER.

AND WHAT HAPPENED?
I'M A SENIOR PSYCHIATRIST.

TODAY I'M HANDING OUT
CHARCOAL PILLS
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE JUNGLE.

NOW YOU WANT ME
TO GO EVEN FURTHER.
YOU TELL ME WHY.

BECAUSE YOU'RE A DOCTOR.
BECAUSE YOU'RE THE ONLY MAN
WHO CAN SAVE HIM.

[ Scoffs, Sighs ]

LOOK.

THE OTHER DAY,
WINSTON ASKED ME IF I KNEW
WHAT THIS WAR WAS ALL ABOUT.

I'M SURE HE'S ASKED YOU
THE SAME QUESTION.

WELL, RIGHT NOW,

THIS WAR IS ALL ABOUT
A MAN NAMED WINSTON.

IT'S, UH-- IT'S EASY
TO FIGHT FOR THE INNOCENT.

BUT WHEN YOU FIGHT
FOR THE SICK, FOR THE WARPED,
FOR THE LOST,

THEN YOU'VE HAD JUSTICE.

[ Sighs ]

IT'S A BIG WORD, I KNOW.
IT IS, YOU KNOW.

BIGGER THAN MY CAREER.

BIGGER THAN YOURS.

- WHAT TIME DO YOU
WANT ME THERE?
- 11:00 A.M.

I'VE GOT MY ROUND
TO DO AT 7:00.

YOU'LL MAKE IT, MAJOR.

YES, ALL RIGHT.
I'LL BE THERE.

THANK YOU, DOCTOR.

NOW, ACCORDING
TO THE DIAGRAM--
THAT'S EXHIBIT "B," SIR--

YOUR BED, CORPORAL ZIMMERMAN,
WAS OPPOSITE AND TO THE LEFT OF
STAFF SERGEANT QUINN'S CUBICLE.

YES, SIR.
AND IF QUINN HAD MADE
ANY MOVE TO DEFEND HIMSELF,

YOU WOULD HAVE SEEN.

YES, SIR.
AND DID HE TRY
AND DEFEND HIMSELF?

NO, SIR.
HE DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE.

DID HE REACH OUT
FOR HIS OWN GUN?
NO, HE COULDN'T.

AND YOU WERE AN EYEWITNESS
TO THIS COLD-BLOODED KILLING.
YES, SIR.

NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.

YOU MAY CROSS-EXAMINE,
COLONEL ADAMS.

I HAVE
NO QUESTIONS, SIR.

COLONEL ADAMS,

AS YOU HAVE ELECTED NOT
TO MAKE AN OPENING STATEMENT,

IT WOULD BE IMPROPER
FOR ME TO PRESS YOU
ON YOUR LINE OF DEFENSE.

HOWEVER, THE COURT HAS NOTED
THAT SO FAR, FOUR WITNESSES
HAVE TAKEN THE STAND...

WITHOUT ANY
CROSS-EXAMINATION
BY DEFENSE COUNSEL.

IF IT WILL HELP
THE COURT, SIR, THE DEFENSE
IS PREPARED TO CONCEDE...

THAT LIEUTENANT WINSTON DID
SHOOT STAFF SERGEANT QUINN...

IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED.

AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
THERE'S NO NEED FOR ANY
FURTHER EYEWITNESSES.

THAT IS FOR THE COURT
TO DECIDE, COLONEL ADAMS!

WHAT I REQUIRE IS
THAT YOU SATISFY ME...

THAT LIEUTENANT WINSTON
WILL BE PROVIDED WITH
AN ACTIVE AND ALERT DEFENSE.

WITH RESPECT TO THE COURT,
SIR, I CLAIM THE RIGHT
TO PRESENT MY DEFENSE...

IN THE WAY THAT WOULD MOST
BENEFIT THE ACCUSED.

AT THIS MOMENT,
ALL I INTEND TO SAY...

IS THAT AT THE TIME
OF THE MURDER,

LIEUTENANT WINSTON COULD NOT
DISTINGUISH RIGHT FROM WRONG.

CORPORAL ZIMMERMAN,

YOU HAVE TESTIFIED THAT
YOU KNEW LIEUTENANT WINSTON
FOR FOUR MONTHS.

YES, SIR. YES.

IN THAT TIME, DID YOU NOTICE ANY
PECULIARITIES OR ECCENTRICITIES
OF ANY KIND IN HIS BEHAVIOR?

NO, SIR.

NOTHING AT ALL THAT WOULD
HAVE LED YOU TO SUSPECT,
EVEN FOR A MOMENT,

THAT LIEUTENANT WINSTON
WAS NOT A PERFECTLY NORMAL,
RATIONAL OFFICER?

NO, SIR.

ARE YOU SURE YOU HAVE NO
QUESTIONS BEFORE I RELEASE
THIS WITNESS, COLONEL ADAMS?

CORPORAL ZIMMERMAN,

WHAT DID YOU DO
IN CIVILIAN LIFE?

I MOVED AROUND.
YOU KNOW, THERE WAS
THIS BOWLING ALLEY--

AT NO TIME IN YOUR CAREER
WERE YOU A PRACTICING
PSYCHIATRIST?

- [ Spectators Chuckling ]
- [ Gavel Rapping ]

NO. NO, SIR.
THANK YOU.
THAT'S ALL.

NOW, SIR, I'D LIKE TO DRAW
YOUR ATTENTION TO PARAGRAPH 3
HERE UNDER AMPHIBIOUS VEHICLES.

YOUR CALL, SIR.
JUST A MINUTE.

YES? YES, JOHNNY.

[ Man Shouting ]
HUT! HUT!
[ Marching ]

NO QUESTIONS AT ALL?
WHERE THE HELL IS THAT DEFENSE
HE'S SUPPOSED TO PUT UP?

HOW MANY MORE
PROSECUTION WITNESSES?

HUH. CALL ME AGAIN.

ALL RIGHT. SORRY, MAJOR.
GO RIGHT AHEAD.
YES, WELL, I SUGGEST--

YOU'VE TOLD THE COURT, BURTON,
THAT WHEN YOU'D HEARD FROM
HEADQUARTERS ABOUT THE MURDER,

YOU TELEPHONED MAJOR KAUFMAN
AND ASKED HIM WHY HE HAD
ADMITTED LT. WINSTON.

YES, I DID.
HE SAID HE WAS SICK,

THAT HE WAS IN
A PROFOUND CONFUSIONAL
AND DEPRESSED STATE.

THEN YOU EXAMINED
LT. WINSTON YOURSELF?
YES, I DID.

WHAT WERE THE RESULTS
OF YOUR EXAMINATION?

HE WAS SUFFERING
FROM GENERAL FATIGUE.

HE ALSO SUFFERS
FROM A NERVOUS STOMACH
AND ATHLETE'S FOOT.

APART FROM THAT,
I'D SAY HIS HEALTH
WAS NORMAL.

BUT DID YOU FIND
ANY INDICATION AT ALL THAT
LT. WINSTON WAS MENTALLY SICK?

I DID NOT.

HAVING FOUND THAT WINSTON
WAS SOUND OF BODY AND MIND,
WHAT DID YOU DO?

HAVING BEEN ADVISED
BY THEATER HEADQUARTERS...

THAT THIS MAN SHOULD STAND
TRIAL AS SOON AS POSSIBLE--
KAUFMAN.

I SUGGESTED TO MAJOR KAUFMAN
THAT HE BE IMMEDIATELY
DISCHARGED FROM HOSPITAL...

AND TRANSFERRED
TO THE STOCKADE.

AND WAS HE SO DISCHARGED,
COLONEL BURTON?
HE WAS NOT.

MAJOR KAUFMAN
REFUSED TO SIGN
HIS DISCHARGE PAPERS.

WHAT DID YOU DO THEN?
I REPORTED THIS
TO HEADQUARTERS.

GENERAL KEMPTON INSTRUCTED ME
TO CONVENE A LUNACY COMMISSION
AND TO EXAMINE WINSTON.

AND WHAT WERE THE FINDINGS
OF THAT COMMISSION?

THE COMMISSION FOUND
LT. WINSTON TO BE SANE, FIT
AND RESPONSIBLE TO STAND TRIAL.

IF THE COURT PLEASES,

THE UNITED STATES ARMY IS
PREPARED TO REST ON THE EVIDENCE
THAT HAS BEEN TAKEN.

I FEEL IT HAS BEEN PROVEN
THAT THE MURDER
OF STAFF SERGEANT QUINN...

OF THE ROYAL ARMY
SERVICE CORPS...

ON THE NIGHT OF AUGUST 16
AT THE UNITED STATES ARMY CORPS
DEPOT IN BACHREE...

WAS WILLFULLY
AND WITH FORETHOUGHT...

COMMITTED BY THE DEFENDANT,
LT. CHARLES WINSTON,

WHILE HE WAS OF SOUND MIND
AND IN FULL POSSESSION
OF ALL HIS FACULTIES.

[ Thompson ]
YOU MAY PRESENT YOUR WITNESSES,
COLONEL ADAMS.

COLONEL ADAMS!

[ Chattering ]
[ Gavel Rapping ]

THE COURT IS, INDEED,
DISTRESSED TO HEAR OF THE DEATH
OF MAJOR KAUFMAN.

HOWEVER,
OUR FIRST AND ONLY TASK
IS TO DISPENSE JUSTICE...

IN THE TRIAL NOW BEFORE US.

THE COURT WILL RECESS
FOR ONE-HALF HOUR.

IF ONLY WE'D SUBPOENAED KAUFMAN
THREE DAYS AGO, HE WOULDN'T
HAVE BEEN TRANSFERRED.

WHAT'S THE USE
IN SAYING, "IF ONLY"?
WE DIDN'T, AND HE WAS.

IF ONLY
WE CROSS-EXAMINED.
MORSE, BENDER, SHUT UP.

GENTLEMEN, THE ONLY
COURT-MARTIAL CASE
I EVER DEFENDED...

WAS 16 YEARS AGO
WHEN I GOT A NOT-GUILTY VERDICT
FOR A MASTER SERGEANT...

ACCUSED OF STEALING
BY "FINDING" A 10-TON TRUCK.

SO I CAN HONESTLY SAY
I HAVE NEVER LOST A CASE YET.

[ Bell Ringing ]
WE'RE GOING TO FIGHT
THIS THING THROUGH.

THE HELL WITH THOMPSON AND
THE REST OF THEM OUT THERE.
YES, SIR.

[ Ringing Continues ]

LIEUTENANT.

I WANT TO OPEN UP BY PUTTING
YOU ON THE WITNESS STAND.
WHY?

I WANT YOU TO TELL THE COURT,
EXACTLY AS YOU TOLD ME,
WHY YOU KILLED QUINN.

I'VE ALREADY CONFESSED
TO THE MURDER. I HAVE
NOTHING ELSE TO SAY.

I WANT YOU ON THAT STAND.

COURT WILL RISE.

I'M NOT GETTING
ON THAT STAND.

I DON'T HAVE TO,
AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME.

WELL, I KNOW
MY RIGHTS, COLONEL.

WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM,
SOME KIND OF A NUT?
THE COURT WILL COME TO ORDER.

THAT'S A JOKE, COLONEL.

ALL PARTIES TO THE TRIAL
WHO WERE PRESENT WHEN THE COURT
RECESSED ARE PRESENT IN COURT.

COLONEL ADAMS?

TRY THE REPORT.

[ Man Coughs ]

SIR,

MAJOR KAUFMAN'S EVIDENCE
IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE TO US.

THIS IS A REPORT
WRITTEN BY HIM IN RESPECT
TO LIEUTENANT WINSTON.

WITH YOUR PERMISSION,
I WOULD LIKE IT READ
INTO THE RECORD.

MAY I SEE THAT, PLEASE?

THIS IS A CARBON COPY,
COLONEL ADAMS.
HAVE YOU THE ORIGINAL?

THE ORIGINAL
HAS BEEN DESTROYED.

WELL, THIS IS NEITHER SIGNED
NOR CERTIFIED A TRUE COPY.

AS LAW OFFICER, I MUST RULE
THAT THIS DOCUMENT
CANNOT BE ADMITTED...

AS AN AUTHENTIC COPY
OF MAJOR KAUFMAN'S REPORT...

WITHOUT PROOF
HE WAS THE AUTHOR OF IT.

DO YOU INTEND
TO PRODUCE THAT PROOF?
I INTEND TO TRY, SIR.

CALL COLONEL BURTON.

EVEN IF THEY WON'T
ACCEPT THE REPORT
AS EVIDENCE,

YOU CAN PUT IT ON THE RECORD
FOR THE INFORMATION
OF THE COURT.

I COULD PUT A COMIC BOOK
ON THE RECORD, IF I WANTED TO.

I WANT THAT REPORT ADMITTED
AS THE EVIDENCE OF
A QUALIFIED PSYCHIATRIST.

[ Chattering ]

[ Man ]
COLONEL BURTON.

COLONEL BURTON,
I WILL REMIND YOU THAT
YOU ARE STILL UNDER OATH.

COLONEL ADAMS,
YOU MAY CROSS-EXAMINE
THE WITNESS.

THANK YOU, SIR.

[ Man Coughing ]

COLONEL BURTON,
THIS LUNACY COMMISSION--
WHO WERE THE MEMBERS?

COLONEL HALE,
MAJOR FRANK AND MYSELF.

COLONEL HALE IS SOME KIND
OF A SURGEON, IS HE NOT?
HE IS A SURGEON.

AND MAJOR FRANK
IS A DENTIST.
YES.

BEFORE YOU WERE COMMISSIONED,
YOU WERE THE RESIDENT
COMPANY PHYSICIAN...

OF THE HAMILTON
TRUCK WORKS IN DETROIT.

YES.
ARE YOU A PSYCHIATRIST,
SIR?

NOT IN A FORMAL SENSE.
WELL, IN AN INFORMAL SENSE.

I'VE READ BOOKS
ON THE SUBJECT.
OH? WHICH BOOKS?

I REPEAT, SIR,
WHAT BOOKS?

I DON'T RECOLLECT
THE TITLES.

[ Adams ]
UH-HUH.

AND IN THIS
GENERAL HOSPITAL
OF YOURS,

DO YOU HAVE A DEPARTMENT
OF PSYCHIATRY?

WE HAVE
A NEUROPSYCHOPATHIC WARD.

IN OTHER WORDS, YOU DO HAVE
A PSYCHIATRIC DEPARTMENT.

I SUPPOSE SO.
YOU SUPPOSE SO.

AND, UH, HOW MANY PSYCHIATRISTS
ARE ON THE STAFF
OF THAT DEPARTMENT?

- THREE, I BELIEVE.
- THREE, YOU BELIEVE?

YOU ARE TELLING THE COURT
THAT NONE OF THEM WAS COMPETENT
TO SIT ON A LUNACY COMMISSION?

THAT IS SO.

AND YET, WHEN ONE OF THEM,
MAJOR KAUFMAN,

SUBMITTED THE REPORT TO YOU
ON LT. WINSTON'S CONDITION,
YOU REJECTED THAT REPORT?

YES. AS I SAID,
THE REPORT WAS NEITHER
COMPETENT NOR SCIENTIFIC.

YOU READ IT CAREFULLY?
YES, I DID.

AND THIS, UH, SURGEON
AND THIS DENTIST,
THEY ALSO READ THE REPORT?

I DON'T KNOW.
WELL, I SUBMIT
THAT YOU DO KNOW, SIR.

WAS THE REPORT
GIVEN TO THEM?

POSSIBLY NOT,
AS I REJECTED IT.

AND SO YOU, COL. BURTON,
ARE THE ONLY MAN WHO HAS READ
MAJOR KAUFMAN'S REPORT.

- I BELIEVE SO.
- THANK YOU, SIR.

IF THE COURT PLEASES,
I WOULD LIKE THIS
TO BE STAMPED--

COLONEL ADAMS, THE LAW OFFICER
HAS ALREADY RULED THIS DOCUMENT
CANNOT BE ADMITTED.

I BELIEVE THAT WHAT COL. ADAMS
WISHES TO DO IS TO HAVE BURTON
AUTHENTICATE THE REPORT.

- IS THAT SO, COLONEL?
- WITH THE COURT'S PERMISSION.

MAJOR SMITH, DO YOU WISH
TO EXAMINE THIS?

- NOT AT PRESENT.
- VERY WELL.

I RULE THAT THIS DOCUMENT
BE ADMITTED INTO EVIDENCE
AS AN ANONYMOUS REPORT...

OF UNSPECIFIED ORIGIN.

IT'S UP TO THE DEFENSE
TO AUTHENTICATE IT AS THE WORK
OF ANY PARTICULAR PERSON.

THANK YOU.

COLONEL BURTON,
WOULD YOU READ THIS,
PLEASE?

[ Man Coughs ]

YOU'VE READ IT?
YES.

IN, UH, 45 SECONDS.

IS THAT THE TIME
YOU USUALLY ALLOW
FOR REPORTS SUBMITTED TO YOU?

NOW, COLONEL,
WOULD YOU TELL
THE COURT, PLEASE,

IS THIS A COPY OF
THE REPORT SUBMITTED TO YOU
BY MAJOR LEON KAUFMAN?

I DON'T KNOW.
YOU DON'T KNOW?

YOU HAVE SWORN TO THE COURT
THAT YOU READ MAJOR KAUFMAN'S
REPORT CAREFULLY...

AND YOU REJECTED IT.

MUST I REMIND YOU
THAT YOU ARE UNDER OATH?

MAY IT PLEASE THE COURT,
COL. BURTON IS NOT ON TRIAL.

I OBJECT TO THIS WHOLE LINE
OF QUESTIONING.

COL. ADAMS
WILL CONFINE HIS QUESTIONS
TO THE EXAMINATION.

I ASK YOU AGAIN, IS THIS
A COPY OF THE REPORT...

SUBMITTED TO YOU
BY MAJOR KAUFMAN?

- NO.
- DO YOU RECOGNIZE ANY PART
AS THE WORK OF MAJOR KAUFMAN?

THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY.

HE WAS IN THE HABIT
OF MAKING SEVERAL DRAFTS
OF HIS REPORTS.

IT MIGHT BE
AN EARLIER DRAFT.

GETTING BACK TO YOUR DAYS
WITH THE HAMILTON TRUCK COMPANY.

DID YOU RESIGN,
OR WERE YOU DISCHARGED?

I RESIGNED.

WERE YOU NOT DISCHARGED BECAUSE
YOU DIAGNOSED A HEART ATTACK
AS ACUTE INDIGESTION?

[ Smith ]
OBJECTION!
CERTAINLY NOT.

ALL RIGHT. WE'LL, UH,
PUT YOUR CIVILIAN CAREER
TO ONE SIDE FOR THE MOMENT.

I'M GOING TO ASK YOU ONCE MORE
ABOUT THIS REPORT,

AND I AGAIN REMIND YOU
THAT YOU ARE UNDER OATH!

[ Smith ]
I OBJECT!

YOUR CONSTANT REMINDERS
TO COL. BURTON THAT HE IS STILL
UNDER OATH ARE OFFENSIVE.

YOU ARE NOT EXAMINING
A CRIMINAL, BUT AN OFFICER
AND A GENTLEMAN...

WHO ACCEPTS THE ROLE
OF A COOPERATIVE WITNESS.

- DO YOU HAVE ANY MORE QUESTIONS
FOR THIS WITNESS?
- YES, SIR, I DO.

IN THAT CASE,
WE WILL RECESS
FOR LUNCH.

AND THE COURT IS RECESSED
TILL 2:15 THIS AFTERNOON,

AT WHICH TIME THOSE PERSONS
HAVING BUSINESS IN THE COURT
WILL APPEAR HERE AGAIN.

BOY, WAS HE EVER
SAVED BY THE BELL.

GOT A MINUTE, SIR?

SURE.

COME IN, BARNEY.
SMOKE?

THANK YOU.

WHAT A LUXURY
TO BE IN A ROOM
WITHOUT A TELEPHONE.

WELL, BARNEY,
I MADE A MISTAKE,
DIDN'T I?

WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES,
GENERAL.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO BURTON?
ARE YOU TRYING TO
DESTROY THAT MAN?

YES, I AM.
WHY?
FOR GOD'S SAKES, WHY?

BECAUSE HE'S A LIAR,
A CHEAT AND A COWARD.

BECAUSE HE'S
COVERED HIMSELF WITH DIRT,
AND IT RUBS OFF EVERYWHERE.

HE DOES HIS JOB.

HE'S REQUIRED TO CONTRIBUTE
TO THE WAR EFFORT...

BY RUNNING A BASE HOSPITAL
SMOOTHLY AND EFFICIENTLY.

HE DOES THAT.
ANYWAY, BURTON CAN
TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF.

IT'S YOU I'M THINKING
ABOUT, BARNEY.

ARE YOU TRYING TO THROW
YOUR CAREER OUT THE WINDOW?
NO, SIR.

WELL, WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?
WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO PROVE?

I'M TRYING TO PROVE
THAT THE SYSTEM WORKS,
GENERAL.

YOU ASKED ME TO PUT ON
A DEMONSTRATION.
I'M DOING THAT.

NO MAN IS ABOVE THE LAW.
WE KNOW THAT. BUT NO MAN
IS BELOW IT EITHER.

AND THAT'S WHAT
I'M PROVING.

WELL, BARNEY, YOU BETTER
GO AHEAD AND PROVE IT.

FOR MYSELF, I DON'T DEAL
IN INDIVIDUALS.

THAT'S A LUXURY
I CAN'T AFFORD.
I'M HERE TO FIGHT A WAR.

I STILL SAY YOU DON'T
BUY VICTORY BY RIGGING
A MURDER TRIAL.

I DON'T KNOW
WHETHER YOU DO OR NOT,
BUT THAT'S YOUR PIGEON NOW.

I'M ALREADY ON
THE NEXT CRISIS.

YOU KNOW, BARNEY?

I WAS HOPING
TO TELL YOU SOON THAT YOU'D
BEEN MADE FULL COLONEL.

DOES THAT SOUND
LIKE BRIBERY?

WELL, IT WASN'T
MEANT TO BE.

GIVE MY REGARDS
TO YOUR OLD MAN
WHEN YOU WRITE TO HIM.

I'LL DO THAT.

IF YOU WILL BOWL
GOOGLIES AND LONG HOPS,
INEVITABLE, I SUPPOSE.

OH, NEVER MIND.

GOOD MORNING.

HAVE YOU JUST GOT UP,
OR DID YOU MANAGE
TO STAGGER INTO COURT?

WE GOT THERE.
BEER, I THINK.
TWO BEERS, PLEASE.

WELL, HAVE YOU RUNG DOWN
THE CURTAIN ON THE HIGH DRAMA
OF THE COURTROOM?

WE'VE RECESSED.
AND WHAT'S
THE BRILLIANT DEFENSE?

SELF-PRESERVATION,
PROVOCATION, OR DIDN'T HE
KNOW THE GUN WAS LOADED?

IF YOU MUST KNOW,
THE BRILLIANT DEFENSE
IS INSANITY.

NOW, IF YOU'LL
EXCUSE US.

WHY DO ENGLISH OFFICERS
ALWAYS USE OUR BAR?
WE NEVER USE THEIRS.

I TRIED, DUCKY.
THE BEER'S TOO WARM.

TELL ME, ARE YOU
PUTTING KAUFMAN
IN THE BOX?

KAUFMAN'S DEAD.
CRACKED UP HIS CAR
RACING TO GET HERE.

GOOD GOD.
I AM SORRY.

SO YOU'LL APPRECIATE
WE'RE HAVING A DIFFICULT
TIME ENOUGH...

WITHOUT
A RUNNING COMMENTARY
FROM YOU, SIR.

BRILLIANT DOCTOR.

WELL, I HEAR YOU'RE MAKING
COMPLETE NONSENSE OF IT.

I'D LIKE A LARGE,
COLD GLASS OF WATER.

[ Bartender ]
YES, SIR.

THE COURT WILL RISE.

THE COURT WILL
COME TO ORDER.

ALL PARTIES WHO WERE PRESENT
WHEN THE COURT RECESSED
ARE AGAIN PRESENT IN COURT.

I WOULD REMIND THE WITNESS
THAT HE'S STILL UNDER OATH.

COLONEL ADAMS.

I HAVE NO MORE QUESTIONS
FOR THIS WITNESS, SIR.

[ Spectators Murmuring,
Whispering ]

MAJOR SMITH?
NO QUESTIONS, SIR.

NOW THE WITNESS
MAY STAND DOWN.

IF THE DEFENSE RESTS,
HAS THE PROSECUTION
ANY FURTHER--

THE DEFENSE
DOES NOT REST, SIR.

I HAVE ONE MORE WITNESS
TO CALL.

VERY WELL.

DO YOU SWEAR THAT
THE EVIDENCE YOU SHALL GIVE
IN THE CASE NOW IN HEARING...

SHALL BE THE TRUTH,
THE WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING
BUT THE TRUTH, SO HELP YOU, GOD?

I DO.
STATE YOUR FULL NAME, RANK,
ORGANIZATION AND STATION.

JOHN GERALD KENSINGTON, MAJOR,
ROYAL ARMY MEDICAL CORPS.

I'M THE AREA
MEDICAL OFFICER,
BACHREE DISTRICT.

BE SEATED.

MAJOR KENSINGTON,
WHAT ARE YOUR MEDICAL
QUALIFICATIONS, PLEASE, SIR?

I'M A DOCTOR OF MEDICINE,
LONDON UNIVERSITY.

I HAVE A DIPLOMA
IN PSYCHOLOGICAL
MEDICINE.

I'M A FELLOW OF
THE ROYAL COLLEGE
OF PHYSICIANS.

AND I WAS LECTURER
AT GUY'S HOSPITAL
IN PSYCHOPATHOLOGY,

LATE WHITELY FELLOW
IN PSYCHOLOGICAL MEDICINE
AT LONDON UNIVERSITY.

I'M THE AUTHOR
OF A CHAPTER ON
PSYCHOSOMATIC ILLNESSES...

IN TAYLOR'S
MEDICAL JURISPRUDENCE.

[ Adams ]
THANK YOU, SIR.

THIS IS A REPORT
WRITTEN BY A MEDICAL
PRACTITIONER...

AFTER AN EXAMINATION
OF LIEUTENANT WINSTON.

WOULD YOU READ THIS,
PLEASE?
I OBJECT!

THE DEFENSE
HAS INTRODUCED AN UNSIGNED,
UNCERTIFIED DOCUMENT.

THERE'S NO PROOF AT ALL
THAT THIS IS A REPORT ON
LT. WINSTON'S CONDITION.

THE REPORT IS TYPED
ON HOSPITAL STATIONERY.

IT IS HEADED
"LIEUTENANT CHARLES WINSTON."
IT BEARS HIS SERIAL NUMBER.

IT IS TITLED
"HISTORY AND PROGNOSIS."

NOW, WHAT MORE
DOES THE TRIAL JUDGE
ADVOCATE WANT?

THE LAW OFFICER HAS ALREADY
RULED THAT THIS IS AN ANONYMOUS
AND UNSPECIFIED DOCUMENT.

I SUGGEST THAT DEFENSE COUNSEL
IS PURSUING AN UNORTHODOX
COURSE, TO SAY THE LEAST.

IF IT WILL HELP THE COURT,
I WILL CONCEDE THAT THIS IS
AN ANONYMOUS REPORT...

WRITTEN ABOUT
AN ANONYMOUS PATIENT--

EVEN, IF THE COURT SO WISHES,
A NONEXISTENT PATIENT.

THAT IS IN ORDER.
THE OBJECTION IS OVERRULED.

THANK YOU, SIR.

MAJOR KENSINGTON,
YOU'VE READ THE REPORT?

YES.

IS THERE ANYTHING
IN THIS REPORT, MAJOR,
THAT IS NOT CONSISTENT...

WITH YOUR DIAGNOSIS
OF LIEUTENANT WINSTON?

IT IS ALMOST,
WORD-FOR-WORD,

WHAT I WOULD HAVE
WRITTEN MYSELF.

LIEUTENANT WINSTON
WAS THE ONLY COMMISSIONED
OFFICER AT BACHREE.

HE HAD THE POWER
AND THE AUTHORITY.

BUT SERGEANT QUINN
BROKE DOWN THIS AUTHORITY.

HE UNDERMINED
LIEUTENANT WINSTON.

HE LAUGHED AT HIM
AND MOCKED HIM,

AND THE PROCESS
OF DISINTEGRATION BEGAN.

HE HAD AN UNHAPPY,
LONELY CHILDHOOD.

HE MARRIED A WOMAN
WHO TERRIFIED HIM.

HIS THREE SONS,
APPARENTLY, TREAT HIM
WITH CONTEMPT AND PITY,

AND THE ONLY REASON HE JOINED
THE ARMY WAS IN A PATHETIC
ATTEMPT TO IMPRESS THEM.

AFTER PEARL HARBOR,
HE BEGAN TO CREATE A FANTASY OF
WINNING THE WAR SINGLE-HANDED.

THAT WAS WHEN HE BEGAN
TO DEGENERATE...

FROM A MERE NEUROTIC
INTO A PARANOIAC.

[ Plane Engine Droning ]

THE MURDER
OF SERGEANT QUINN...

WAS THE LAST,
DESPERATE EFFORT
OF LIEUTENANT WINSTON...

TO DEFEND HIMSELF
WITH THE EXERCISE OF POWER.

BUT ALREADY, AT THIS POINT,
HE WAS INSANE.

HE WAS INSANE THEN,
AND HE'S INSANE NOW.

I'M SANE!
I'M THE ONLY ONE HERE
WHO IS SANE!

I'M SANE,
YOU LOUSY LIMEY QUACK!
TELL THEM I'M SANE!

COME ON,
YOU BIG HERO LAWYER.
WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON?

I DON'T CARE
FOR THE LOT OF YOU!
YOU THINK YOU'RE SANE?

HUH, WINOVICH?
I KNOW ALL ABOUT YOU!
CORPORAL!

TELL HIM WHO
YOUR SISTER MARRIED!
A FILIPINO, YEAH!

STAND UP AND TELL 'EM!
TELL 'EM!

AND YOU-- YOU'LL GET YOURS.
YOU'LL GET YOURS!

I'M GOING TO REPORT
ON HOW YOU OPERATE
THIS THEATER!

I'M GOING TO GO MYSELF
TO THE CONGRESS OF
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!

I'M GONNA TELL 'EM!
I WATCHED HIM GO
UP THAT HILL!

I WATCHED HIM,
AND I KEPT IT ALL
IN MY BOOK!

I HAD IT! I HAD IT
IN MY BLACK BOOK!
