CORSO: What if I find your copy's a forgery?

BALKAN stares at him coldly for a moment.

BALKAN: It's quite on the cards.

CORSO seems mildly surprised. He looks at the book again,
'listens' to the quality of the paper by putting his ear to the
pages and riffling them with his thumb.

CORSO: Really? It doesn't appear to be. Even the paper sounds
kosher.

BALKAN: Even so. There may be something wrong with it.

CORSO continues to examine the book. He smiles ironically.

CORSO: You mean the Devil won't show up?

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
