1
A moment ago, you said that you ordered Lieutenant Kendrick to tell his men that Santiago wasn't to be touched.
2
That's right.
3
And Lieutenant Kendrick was clear on what you wanted?
4
Crystal.
5
Any chance Lieutenant Kendrick ignored the order?
6
Ignored the order?
7
Any chance he forgot about it?
8
No. Any chance Lieutenant Kendrick left your office and said,
9
the old man is wrong?
10
No. Well, Lieutenant Kendrick spoke to the platoon and ordered them not to touch Santiago.
11
Any chance they ignored him?
12
You ever served in an infantry unit, son?
13
No, sir.
14
Ever served in a forward area?
15
No, sir.
16
Ever put your life in another man's hands?
17
Asked him to put his life in yours?
18
No, sir.
19
We follow orders, son.
20
We follow orders or people die.
21
It's that simple.
22
Are we clear?
23
Yes, sir.
24
Are we clear?
25
Crystal.
26
Colonel, I have just one more question before I call Airman O'Malley and Airman Rodriguez.
27
If you gave an order that Santiago wasn't to be touched,
28
and your orders are always followed,
29
then why would Santiago be in danger?
30
Why would it be necessary to transfer him off the base?
31
Santiago was a substandard Marine.
32
He was being transferred.
33
That's not what you said.
34
You said he was being transferred because he was in grave danger.
35
That's correct.
36
You said he was in danger.
37
I said grave danger.
38
You said is there any other...
39
I recall what I said.
40
I can have the court reporter read back to you.
41
I know what I said.
42
I don't have to have it read back to me like I'm...
43
Why two orders?
44
Colonel?
45
Colonel?
46
Sometimes men take matters into their own hands.
47
No, sir, you made it clear just a moment ago that your men never take matters into their own hands.
48
Your men follow orders or people die.
49
So Santiago shouldn't have been in any danger at all,
50
should he have, Colonel?
51
You snotty little bastard.
52
Your Honor, I'd like to ask for a recess.
53
I'd like an answer to the question, Judge.
54
The court will wait for an answer.
55
If Lieutenant Kendrick gave an order that Santiago wasn't to be touched,
56
then why did he have to be transferred?
57
Colonel, Lieutenant Kendrick ordered the code red, didn't he?
58
Because that's what you told Lieutenant Kendrick to do.
59
Object!
60
And when it went bad,
61
you cut these guys loose!
62
Your Honor, you have mortgages inside a phony transfer.
63
Your Honor, you doctored the logbook.
64
Damn it, Captain!
65
You coerced the doctrine.
66
Consider yourself in contempt.
67
Colonel Jessup, did you order the Code Ray?
68
You don't have to answer that question.
69
I'll answer the question.
70
You want answers?
71
I think I'm entitled to you.
72
You want answers?
73
I want the truth!
74
You can't handle the truth!
75
Son, we live in a world that has walls,
76
and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns.
77
Who's gonna do it?
78
You?
79
You, Lieutenant Weinberg?
80
I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.
81
You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines.
82
You have that luxury.
83
You have the luxury of not knowing what I know,
84
that Santiago's death while tragic probably saved lives,
85
and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.
86
You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties.
87
You want me on that wall.
88
You need me on that wall.
89
We use words like honor, code, loyalty.
90
We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something.
91
You use them as a punchline.
92
I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises
93
and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it.
94
I would rather you just said thank you and went on your way.
95
Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post.
96
Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to.
97
Did you order the code red?
98
I did the job.
99
Did you order the code red?
100
You're goddamn right I did!

Klanken die Nederlandstaligen lastig vinden:
- /æ/ — opener dan de Nederlandse “e”: fathom /ˈfæðəm/, substandard /ˌsʌbˈstændɚd/, backbone /ˈbækˌboʊn/, blanket /ˈblæŋ.kɪt/, tragic /ˈtɹæd͡ʒɪk/
- /g/ — een harde plofklank, geen Nederlandse “g”: grotesque /ɡɹoʊˈtɛsk/, logbook /ˈlɑɡ.bʊk/
Zo oefen je met deze video
- Luister de hele video één keer zonder te spreken en noteer de woorden die je niet kent.
- Begin op 0,75× snelheid, spreek zin voor zin na en ga terug naar normale snelheid zodra het makkelijk gaat.
- Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als coerce, fathom, grotesque.
Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
