"We're all sick of you." "What is it now?" "I came here to fight, not to fucking around some village." "Then go to London or Paris, If you're boring here." "is that sin?" "Yes, it is!" "Why are you so nervous?" "Me?" "What about you?" "At least I have reasons and you're having fun." "What fun?" "Just look at you!" "You're on vacation, walking, dancing, eating, drinking, fucking around." "You don't give a fuck If the Hungary hasn't got a sea." "That bothers you?" "Something else bothers me." "Like what?" "It's hard to tell." "If Hauzer didn't say a good word for you," "I wouldn't talk to you now." "You could be very useful for us, but you spoil everything." "Me?" "How is that?" "With Hribnicar for example." "What was wrong there?" "You haven't started well." "You don't realize what it means to stay in front of secretary!" "And acting like some jerk." "You hardly spoke to him." "Seems to me, that I should have done bonton course, before I came to partisans." "And it took you a long time before you've left the town." "Yes, and yesterday I shitted tree times." "What was the partisan war in Yugoslavia like?" "There were big and small groups." "But fight with them was very difficult." "Well, the partisans..." "Their tactics wasn't real tactics." "Improvisation is better word for that." "Of course, I'm not the military expert." "I had a feeling that they all were suicide." "Well, It's over now."

"Yes." "Probably in battalion task force." "But why?" "Man learns whole his life and dies like an idiot." "Then grass grows from his as, the rabbit eats it and become smart." "How do we know that?" "Because it run away from man like hell!" "Have you ever seen any rabbit in the army?" "You're going too?" "Yes. in a stew." "Who'll cook us?" "The crabs." "They won't have a time." "I see you're in good mood." "Good ride is better than bad walk." "How are you, Berk?" "How am I?" "I'm marching towards Berlin." "You're happy for a man who's going to battalion task force." "You always have your own special opinion of everything." "You're a communist?" "You will be too, If you're smart." "You'd better join the party so they leave alone."
