[影像] Generation Kill 《殺戮世代》- #4 Combat Jack

這一集叫"Combat Jack"，有點拍謝解釋它的的意思，根據Urban Dictionary：點我。叫我自己在部落格上說明這字意思，還滿害羞的，Genertaion Kill用這樣的字眼當做這集的標題，很猛！老實說，戲裡也還滿常看到大兵這樣的舉動，即便在戰場上，解決生理需求總是需要的嘛！XD

前三集Lt. Fick的口頭禪應該是"I'm assured of this."。只要碰到Brad對他提問，或對上級指示有質疑時，Lt.就會說這句話。有時候他說著說著，我都覺得他好像是在說服自己似的。從上一集開始，隨著第一偵察營持續向伊拉克北部推進，一路上遇到的事情，讓他的信念逐漸崩解，開始質疑這一切的正當性，這句話就再也沒有出現過了，也從這一集Lt.開始有點爆發了。

* Incompetent officers

忍不住了，Doc和Kocher終於跟長官們說了心裡一直想說的話…



Encino Man: This is your chance to get a little something off your chest.
Doc: Are you asking me to speak frankly?
Encino Man: Yes.
Doc: Well...Well, sir, it's just that you're incompetent, sir.
Encino Man: I'm doing the best I can.
Doc: Sir, it's not good enough.


Captain America: Eric, what can I do for you?
Kocher: Sir, it's about the enemy A.Ks you've been firing from your vehicle. You're endangering us. You're not calling your targets, the A.Ks sound like enemy fire.
Captain America: Jesus Christ, Eric.
Kocher: Respectfully, sir, you fire an A.K. one more time, I'll f**k you up.

這集開始，士兵和軍官之前緊張的關係，終於真正開始發酵了。其實有個很重要的原因，很多軍官參加OIF(Operation Iraqi Freedom)之前，都是沒有實際作戰經驗的，所下的決定，會讓這些身經百戰的精英偵查兵們，覺得很沒大腦，甚至危及他們的性命，讓人會沒辦法信服這些軍官。BTW, Doc and Kocher are badasses. Period.

* Shit on Lieutenant

因為上一集的danger close事件，Lt.處境開始變得很尷尬，Bravo2的隊長們，心疼自己的指揮官竟然要親自站哨，大老遠來表示關心。



Pappy: And, well, sir, we just want to say that if it comes to the C.O. charging you with insubordination...
Fick: Shut the f**k up and do your f**king jobs. Whatever happens between Captain Schwetje (Encino Man) and myself is none of your f**king business.
Espera: Gunny, we were...
Gunny Wynn: Lt. doesn't want this thing to mess with the platoon. And he sure as hell doesn't want anybody taking sides for or against. Now back the f**k down. The shit's on the Lieutenant and he wants it to stay that way.

Lt. 其實很貼心，擔心自己的事情會影響Bravo2，所以武裝起自己，很嚴厲地用F炸彈，炸退了擔心自己的隊長們。還好Gunny又扮起媽媽的角色，告訴排裡的孩子們，Lt.是為了大家好，所以還是請大家不要管這件事吧。NOTE: 從Lt.丟F炸彈的次數，就可以分辨他生氣的程度了。哈～ 

* Hilarious translation

A連一位排長，前一晚叫了一場空襲，直升機丟了一千磅炸彈，結果什麼都沒炸到。這些A連的大兵們在緊張冒冷汗的長官身後，毫不留情的取笑他。



Sgt. C: And Meesh is all, "Dude, these Iraqis love the fact that we are here. They f**king love freedom and they thought that those fireballs last night were f**king wicked, dude. You Americans have killed a lot of sand. The sand was very evil."

大概是七集裡，前幾名好笑的段落了，超機車的，哇哈哈～我說這些阿兵哥模仿能力也太好了吧，個個是專業諧星！ The sand was very evil.→ Pure epic!

* Taking dumps under pressure

在極度緊張的狀態下，Brad還是可以相當冷靜地解決自己的生理需求，了不起啊，不愧是Iceman。



Brad: Daddy's back.
Ray: I know, man. I am seriously impressed. Taking dumps under pressure, man, that is our Iceman's Achilles' heel. Or Achilles' asshole. Holy shit, Brad's our Achilles' anus.
這場戲的兩個重點，1. Yes, 你看到Alexander Skarsgard的白屁屁了。根據導演的說法，現場大約有兩百人，連前面都看到了。真不愧是北歐人，都來真的。2. Sgt. Colber真的很厲害，旁邊有炸彈飛來飛去，他還是可以很自在地解決自己的事。Man, you've gotta respect the Iceman.

* Trombley stood out

Trombley不知道是心臟太大顆，還是根本沒心臟，a Psycho, seriously.



Trombley: This may sound weird, but deep down, I kinda wanted to see what it feels like to get shot. I mean, not actually shot, but I don't know I just get more nervous watching a game show at home on TV than I do here in all this, you know?

之前因為Trombley誤傷牧羊少年的事，Bravo2的人，都開始故意忽略他，排擠他，即便Trombley還滿明顯想要討好大家。其實某一方面來看，他真的是個很普通的年輕孩子，也很崇拜這些有經驗的前輩。不過這個事件之後，Trombley那種沒有心臟般的勇氣，似乎贏回大家對他的尊重了。不過說在家看game show，比站在砲火子彈飛來飛去的地方還緊張，也太誇張了吧！！

另外，Lt. Fick在背景呼叫空中攻擊的聲音好man啊，一整個比上一集的Encino Man專業很多，搞到後來我都眼睛看畫面，耳朵卻仔細找他的聲音。XD 空中攻擊小組的無線電呼號都好酷，不是Scar Face就是Steel Rain，Screwby!

* The way Arabs grieve

Bravo和Charlie（C連）奉命在Al Hayy設路障，阻止所有的車輛經過，但是即使利用警告射擊，有的車子還是不停，也因為這樣又傷害了無辜的生命。



Sgt.: Ask him why he didn't stop at our warning shots. Ask him why he kept coming.
Meesh: He said he's sorry. He wants to know if he can take his daughter's body.
Rudy: He said he's sorry? We just f**king killed his daughter.
Meesh: Arabs don't grieve the way you do. It's different for him.

真是令人心痛的一幕，即使根據交戰規則，Charlie（C連）做的是正確的，還是對大兵們的心理有很深的影響。根據原著，開槍的大兵說，他會把這個記憶帶回家，一輩子記在腦海裡，說什麼也不會忘記。而且，書裡實際上小女孩的死狀更慘…不過阿拉伯人真的都不把悲痛表現出來嘛？感覺上對身體很不好… >"<

* Marines are cool

在設路障當晚被擊倒的卡車旁，當地的小孩們開心地在屍體旁跳來跳去，尋寶似的，完全不當一回事。看到Alpha車隊進來，還開心的揮起手來。


 

Ray: They think we're cool 'cause we're so good at blowing shit up.

又是來自Ray-Ray的經典一句。一針見血。

* Competent officers

雖然有不稱職的軍官，但是稱職的軍官也是有的。Alpha被派出去進行另外一項任務，營救被俘的補給連陸戰隊員，嗯，結果，跟想像中完全不同。回來時，Lt. 問Captain Patterson結果如何。 


 

Lt. Fick: How'd it go?
Cpt. Patterson: Brought all my men back.
Lt. Fick: And Ash Shatrah? What happened there?
Cpt. Patterson: Nate...You wouldn't believe it, man.

呃…補這個畫面單純是因為，難得看到我最愛的兩位軍官有對手戲，都開心的要灑小花了。我沒記錯的話，原著裡這兩位是幾乎沒有交集的，不知道Lt.心裡會不會想說，要是Captain Patterson是他老闆就好了。哈哈～
