101
It's had quite an impact.
102
So much so the navy have decided
to go to great lengths to protect it.
103
That's why you're here.
104
You're to pair with one of them,
keep his ass1 safe.
105
Your job is to keep him alive
so he can do his job.
106
Begging the major's pardon, but I believe
I'd best serve the Corps2 killing3 Japs,
107
not baby-sitting some Indian.
108
Enders, we didn't pick
your name out of a hat.
109
We need good marines.
110
That's why you're standing5 here.
111
Take a look.
112
It's a Navajo. Or it was.
113
Tortured to death by Japanese
intelligence trying to bust6 our code.
114
Fortunately, he couldn't help them
even if he wanted to.
115
- Sir?
- Man's a Navajo, not a codetalker.
116
Code's based on their language,
but it is still a code.
117
Tojo would like nothing more
than to catch a live one.
118
What I'm about to tell you, Corporal,
cannot leave this room.
119
Under no circumstances can you allow
your codetalker to fall into enemy hands.
120
Your mission is to protect the code...
121
at all cosplayts.
122
You understand me?
123
Yes, sir, I do.
124
Good.
125
Congratulations. You just made sergeant7.
126
Keep those hands vertical8.
127
Way to go, marine4.
128
Fortino, take over.
129
Hey... That was you, right,
sitting in front of the major's office?
130
Yeah. Listen, I'm Pete Henderson.
131
They call me Ox.
Not cosplay of my big muscles or anything.
132
I'm from Oxnard, California.
Just north of Hollywood a ways.
133
So you're with JASCO too, huh?
134
Hey, know where we might find
2nd Joint9 Assault Signal?
135
Hey, know where we might find
2nd Joint Assault Signal?
136
No fucking idea, mac.
137
Thanks. Thanks a bunch.
138
I've never seen so many white men.
139
They've never seen so many Navajo.
140
Looks to me like you got to see
a little action there.
141
Me too.
142
Jap sons of bitches
shot me right in the ass.
143
You believe that shit?
I wasn't running or nothing.
144
So, your duty with JASCO have anything
to do with these Navajo radiomen?
145
I'm not at liberty to say.
146
I see you got a new stripe there. Me too.
147
So I'm guessing the orders you can't tell
me are the same orders I can't tell you.
148
Hell of a thing, huh?
149
Ain't a democracy, Sergeant.
It's the marines.
150
Yeah.
