first flight stateside left Guantanamo Bay at twenty three hundred, it arrived at Andrews Air Force base in Maryland a few minutes past two

[shaking his head]
Jessup
Kaffee:

Lt. Col. Matthew Andrew Markinson:
[scoffs]
Kaffee:
maybe he can make it that one didn't take off but I can sure as hell prove one landed. I'm going to get the log book from Andrews
Lt. Col. Matthew Andrew Markinson:
you're not going to find anything in the Andrews log book either
Kaffee:
he can make an entire flight disappear?
Lt. Col. Matthew Andrew Markinson:
Nathan Jessup was about to be appointed Director of Operations for the National Security Council. You don't get to that position without knowing how to "sidestep a few landmines"
Kaffee:
his not going to be able to "sidestep" you
Lt. Col. Matthew Andrew Markinson:

Transcript
There wasn't a flight at 11:00.
What the fuck are you trying to pull?
The first flight stateside
left Guantanamo Bay at 2300.
It arrived at Andrews Air Force Base
at a few minutes past 2:00.
Really? Then why isn't it
listed in the tower chief’s log?
Jessup.
What are you telling me?
He fixed the logbook?
Maybe he can make it so a plane didn't
take off, but I can prove one landed.
I'll get the logbook from Andrews.
You're not gonna find anything
in the Andrews logbook, either.
He can make
an entire flight disappear?
Jessup is about to be appointed director
of operations for the Security Council.
You don't get to that position without
knowing how to sidestep some land mines.
He's not gonna be able
to sidestep you.
You don't still intend
to put me on the stand?
Thursday morning, 10:00.
There's gotta be someone
who can testify to the flight.
This isn't TWA.
There isn't a regular flight schedule.
Do you have any idea how many planes
take off and land every day?
A ground crew kid won't remember
a flight that landed four weeks ago.
- How do you know if you don't check?
- Forget the flight!
Markinson will testify that Jessup
refused to transfer Santiago.
He'll testify to the forged transfer,
and that'll be enough.
That and Downey's testimony
really ought to be enough.
Why did you go into Santiago's room
on the night of the 6th?
To give Private Santiago
a Code Red, ma'am.
Why did you give him a Code Red?
I was ordered to give him a Code Red
by the platoon commander...
of Rifle Security Company Windward,
Lieutenant Jonathan James Kendrick.
You're gonna do fine.
You think they'll let us go back
to our platoon soon, ma'am?
Absolutely.
Do you remember the order of questions?
Are you sure?
And we'll use small words, 'cause he
gets rattled if he doesn't understand.
- I'm just saying go slow.
- I'm gonna go slow.
And get him off
as fast as you can.
What?
It's gonna be fine.
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Santiago...
I was William's executive officer.
I knew your son vaguely,
which is to say I knew his name.
In a matter of time,
the trial of the two men...
charged with your son's death
will be concluded...
and seven men and two women
whom you've never met...
will try to offer you an explanation
as to why William is dead.
For my part, I've done as much as I can
to bring the truth to light.
And the truth is this-
Your son is dead for only one reason-
I wasn't strong enough to stop it.
Always, Lieutenant Colonel
Matthew Andrew Markinson...
