1
Thank you, sir.
2
Wait a minute, I've got some questions.
3
No, you don't.
4
Yes, I do.
5
No, you don't.
6
Colonel, on the morning that Santiago died, did you meet with Dr. Stone between three and five?
7
Joe.
8
Of course, I met with the doctor.
9
One of my men was dead.
10
See?
11
The man was dead.
12
Let's go.
13
I was just wondering if you've ever heard the term Code Red.
14
I've heard the term, yes.
15
This past February, Colonel, you received a cautionary memo from the Commander-in-Chief of the Atlantic Fleet
16
warning that the practice of enlisted men disciplining their own wasn't to be condoned by officers.
17
Well, I submit to you that whoever wrote
18
that memo has never faced the working end of a Soviet-made Cuban AK-47 assault rifle.
19
However, the directive having come from the commander, I gave it its due attention.
20
What is your point, Joe?
21
She has no point.
22
She often has no point, sir.
23
It's part of her charm.
24
We're out of here.
25
Thank you.
26
My point is that I think Code Red still go on down here.
27
Do Code Red still happen on this base?
28
Joe, the Colonel doesn't need to answer that.
29
Yes, he does.
30
No, he really doesn't.
31
Yeah, he really does.
32
Colonel.
33
You know, it just hit me.
34
She outranks you, Danny.
35
Yes, sir.
36
I want to tell you something, and listen up, because I really mean this.
37
You're the luckiest man in the world.
38
There is nothing on this earth sexier, believe me, gentlemen, than a woman that you have to salute in the morning.
39
Promote them all, I say, because this is true.
40
If you haven't gotten a blow job from a superior officer, well, you're just letting the best in life pass you by.
41
Colonel, the practice of code reds is still condemned by officers on this base.
42
Of course, my problem is I'm a colonel, so I'll just have to go on taking cold showers until they elect some gal president.
43
I need an answer to my question, sir.
44
Take caution in your tone, Commander.
45
I'm a fair guy, but this fucking heat is making me absolutely crazy.
46
You want to ask me about code reds on the record, I tell you I discourage the practice in accordance with the commander's directive.
47
Off the record, I tell you it is an invaluable part of close infantry training.
48
And if it happens to go on without my knowledge, so be it.
49
I run my unit how I run my unit.
50
You want to investigate me, roll the dice and take your chances.
51
I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4,000 Cubans who are trained to kill me, so don't think for one second that you can come down here,
52
flash a badge, and make me nervous.
53
Let's go.
54
Colonel, I just need a copy of Santiago's transfer order.
55
What's that?
56
Santiago's transfer order.
57
You guys have paperwork on that kind of thing.
58
I just need it for the file.
59
For the file?
60
Yeah.
61
Of course, you can have a copy of the transfer order for the file, Danny.
62
I'm here to help in any way I can.
63
Thank you.
64
You believe that, don't you, Danny, that I'm here to help you in any way I can? Of course.
65
The Corporate will take you by personnel on your way out to the flight line, and you can have all the transfer orders that you want.
66
You have to ask me nicely.
67
I beg your pardon?
68
You have to ask me nicely.
69
You see, Danny, I can deal with the bullets and the bombs and the blood.
70
I don't want money and I don't want medals.
71
What I do want is for you to stand there in that faggoty white uniform with your Harvard mouth, extend me some fucking courtesy.
72
You gotta ask me nicely.
73
Colonel Jessup, if it's not too much trouble, I'd like a copy of the transfer order.
74
Sir.
75
No problem.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
