[kneeling in stream]
Damned hot work. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:

Who are you? Lieutenant John Chard:
John Chard, Royal Engineers. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
Bromhead. 24th. That's my post... up there. [points into middle distance] Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
You've come down from the column? Lieutenant John Chard:
That's right. They want a bridge across the river. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
Who said you could use my men? Lieutenant John Chard:
They were sitting around on their backsides, doing nothing. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
Rather you asked first, old boy. Lieutenant John Chard:
I was told that their officer was out hunting. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
Err... yes. [spurs on horse] Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
I'll tell my man to clean your kit. Lieutenant John Chard:
Don't bother. Lieutenant Gonville Bromhead:
No bother... I'm not offering to clean it myself. Still, a chap ought to look smart in front of the men, don't you think? Well, chin-chin Do carry on with your mud pies
