451
Because your buddy
smeared ash on your forehead?

452
That's right. Cos my buddy
smeared ash on my forehead.

453
You ever see ghosts?

454
No more stupid questions today, Private.
That's an order.

455
Sounds beautiful.

456
You, uh, you self-taught?

457
My dad was always playing.

458
You know what they say:
if you can't beat 'em...

459
No shit. My dad, he...
he gave me this thing.

460
Used to call me the Pied Piper of the Pigs.

461
Used to bring 'em in for feeding
with this little tune I played.

462
I know I ain't gonna get you
to quit playing that thing, so...

463
like you just said, if you can't beat 'em...

464
I don't think it's gonna work.

465
Well, we ain't got much else
to do out here. What the hell?

466
OK.

467
All right, you lead off. I'll follow you.

468
2nd Recon Company will move out
at 0600 and scout along road 04.

469
You can expect light resistance
northwest of the palm grove. Over.

470
Roger. What do you mean, light?
No resistance is light! Over.

471
Remember, marine, "Ours is not to
question why, ours is but to do or die."

472
Semper Fi. Over.

473
Dear Joe, how the hell are you?

474
Or, given that you're not much of a
writer, should I not expect an answer?

475
The newspapers say
our boys are doing great.

476
But I don't think the reporters
have been to Kaneohe Bay Hospital.

477
I found a stray dog
the other day on Waikiki.

478
I gave him a bath and took him in.

479
He reminded me of you - but cuter.

480
At least he keeps me warm at night.

481
I try not to think about you. About
what might be happening over there.

482
But sometimes, when I'm lying in bed,

483
I can't keep myself
from wondering where you are.

484
How you're doing.

485
What the hell you doing?

486
Writing a letter to my son.

487
Forget your orders? No letters out.

488
Command don't want postmarks
going to the reservation.

489
Hey! You hear me?

490
I thought that he might read 'em
when I get home.

491
What's his name?

492
Your son.

493
It's George. George Washington.

494
George Washington Yahzee.

495
It's got a bit of a ring to it.

496
My wife wasn't so sure.

497
She's a little more traditional.

498
- Nice-looking family.
- Let's see, Yahz.

499
Yeah, that George, he's quite a character.
He's got a mind of his own.

500
Can I try one of those?
