Larry Rew: Old-timer

Quotes 

• [Private Glen is in the transfer pod that will drop him from the ship. The Old-timer seals him in securely] 

  Old-timer : Now, you do know how to get out of this.

  [Glen nods] 

  Old-timer : And the straps.

  [Glen gazes at him] 

  Old-timer : My, you're a chatty one, aren't you?

  [the Old-timer trots over to some read-outs] 

  Old-timer : Okay, picture looks good. Let's see, your respiration, temperature, pulse... This is your first drop, son?

  Soldier Pvt. Jason Glen : Yes.

  Old-timer : Okay. Your heartbeat's a little rapid, but that's all right. Just remember to breathe... You'll be on ship hour until you launch, then this will get you down.

  Soldier Pvt. Jason Glen : Okay.

  Old-timer : On your first drop, the others are gonna give you a lot of stick. Don't listen to them. They'll shit-talk you all day. Ha. Just remember, when you're planet-side, and in a real fire-fight, they're gonna be there. All right?

  Soldier Pvt. Jason Glen : Right.

  Old-timer : Just remember your training, and keep your head down. You'll go on to make a pretty penny!
