Frankel
looked
disgusted
.
"
Oh
.
So
you
would
get
yourself
killed
and
perhaps
your
teammates
as
well
because
of
a
few
little
ants
?
"
"
Not
'
just
a
few
'
--
there
were
hundreds
of
'
em
.
Stingers
.
"
"
So
?
Young
man
,
let
me
put
you
straight
.
Had
it
been
a
nest
of
rattlesnakes
you
would
still
have
been
expected
--
and
required
--
to
freeze
.
"
Frankel
paused
.
"
Have
you
anything
at
all
to
say
in
your
own
defense
?
"
Hendrick
's
mouth
was
open
.
"
I
certainly
do
!
He
hit
me
!
He
laid
hands
on
me
!
The
whole
bunch
of
'
em
are
always
strutting
around
with
those
silly
batons
,
whackin
'
you
across
the
fanny
,
punchin
'
you
between
the
shoulders
and
tellin
'
you
to
brace
up
and
I
put
up
with
it
.
But
he
hit
me
with
his
hands
--
he
knocked
me
down
to
the
ground
and
yelled
,
'
Freeze
!
you
stupid
jackass
!
'
How
about
that
?
"
Captain
Frankel
looked
down
at
his
hands
,
looked
up
again
at
Hendrick
.
"
Young
man
,
you
are
under
a
misapprehension
very
common
among
civilians
.
You
think
that
your
superior
officers
are
not
permitted
to
'
lay
hands
on
you
,
'
as
you
put
it
.
Under
purely
social
conditions
,
that
is
true
--
say
if
we
happened
to
run
across
each
other
in
a
theater
or
a
shop
,
I
would
have
no
more
right
,
as
long
as
you
treated
me
with
the
respect
due
my
rank
,
to
slap
your
face
than
you
have
to
slap
mine
.
But
in
line
of
duty
the
rule
is
entirely
different
--
"
The
Captain
swung
around
in
his
chair
and
pointed
at
some
loose-leaf
books
.
"
There
are
the
laws
under
which
you
live
.
You
can
search
every
article
in
those
books
,
every
court-martial
case
which
has
arisen
under
them
,
and
you
will
not
find
one
word
which
says
,
or
implies
,
that
your
superior
officer
may
not
'
lay
hands
on
you
'
or
strike
you
in
any
other
manner
in
line
of
duty
.
Hendrick
,
I
could
break
your
jaw
...
and
I
simply
would
be
responsible
to
my
own
superior
officers
as
to
the
appropriate
necessity
of
the
act
.
But
I
would
not
be
responsible
to
you
.
I
could
do
more
than
that
.
There
are
circumstances
under
which
a
superior
officer
,
commissioned
or
not
,
is
not
only
permitted
but
required
to
kill
an
officer
or
a
man
under
him
,
without
delay
and
perhaps
without
warning
--
and
,
far
from
being
punished
,
be
commended
.
To
put
a
stop
to
pusillanimous
conduct
in
the
face
of
the
enemy
,
for
example
.
"
The
Captain
tapped
on
his
desk
.
"
Now
about
those
batons
--
They
have
two
uses
.
First
,
they
mark
the
men
in
authority
.
Second
,
we
expect
them
to
be
used
on
you
,
to
touch
you
up
and
keep
you
on
the
bounce
.
You
ca
n't
possibly
be
hurt
with
one
,
not
the
way
they
are
used
;
at
most
they
sting
a
little
.
But
they
save
thousands
of
words
.
Say
you
do
n't
turn
out
on
the
bounce
at
reveille
.
No
doubt
the
duty
corporal
could
wheedle
you
,
say
'
pretty
please
with
sugar
on
it
,
'
inquire
if
you
'd
like
breakfast
in
bed
this
morning
--
if
we
could
spare
one
career
corporal
just
to
nursemaid
you
.
We
ca
n't
,
so
he
gives
your
bedroll
a
whack
and
trots
on
down
the
line
,
applying
the
spur
where
needed
.
Of
course
he
could
simply
kick
you
,
which
would
be
just
as
legal
and
nearly
as
effective
.
But
the
general
in
charge
of
training
and
discipline
thinks
that
it
is
more
dignified
,
both
for
the
duty
corporal
and
for
you
,
to
snap
a
late
sleeper
out
of
his
fog
with
the
impersonal
rod
of
authority
.
And
so
do
I.
Not
that
it
matters
what
you
or
I
think
about
it
;
this
is
the
way
we
do
it
.
"
Captain
Frankel
sighed
.
"
Hendrick
,
I
have
explained
these
matters
to
you
because
it
is
useless
to
punish
a
man
unless
he
knows
why
he
is
being
punished
.
You
've
been
a
bad
boy
--
I
say
'
boy
'
because
you
quite
evidently
are
n't
a
man
yet
,
although
we
'll
keep
trying
--
a
surprisingly
bad
boy
in
view
of
the
stage
of
your
training
.
Nothing
you
have
said
is
any
defense
,
nor
even
any
mitigation
;
you
do
n't
seem
to
know
the
score
nor
have
any
idea
of
your
duty
as
a
soldier
.
