00:00A group of soldiers is watching a blue movie, but Mike is shocked when he realizes that the

00:04woman on screen is his wife. He can't control his emotions, and he wants to leave Iraq.

00:18But Anthony instead gets the rest of the guys to watch it again. What Anthony didn't expect,

00:24though, was that the next day he got a letter from his girlfriend. In the letter she broke up with

00:28him. Anthony couldn't believe it, so he called her, but she just hung up on him. That night,

00:33Anthony went to a party with the guys. While everyone was having a good time, the rookie who

00:38was covering for Anthony during his shift accidentally set off a flare while grilling.

00:42The explosion went off, and the soldiers quickly grabbed their weapons and ran out.

00:46As punishment, Anthony had to burn all the camp's waste. Back at base, his emotions completely

01:00broke down, and he grabbed a submachine gun and pointed at himself. But the rookie couldn't bring

01:05himself to pull the trigger. At that moment, Anthony desperately needed to release his anger.

01:10Soon after the Gulf War began, Anthony and his unit were sent to the front lines. The U.S. military

01:16used advanced targeting systems and precision-guided weapons for accurate strikes. The army's job was

01:21to gather supplies and clear the battlefield. But while the soldiers were resting, Iraq launched

01:26an airstrike, and Anthony just froze in place, scared out of his mind, even wetting his pants.

01:31When the unit moved forward, they saw that Iraq's soldiers had set the oil fields on fire.

01:36The Iraqis would rather destroy the oil than let the U.S. military get it. Anthony and his unit fought

01:41through the thick smoke, making it to their target location. That's when his superior gave him a

01:46mission. Head to the airport and take out an Iraqi officer. Anthony was pumped. He and his team

01:51quickly reached the mission spot, and he was about to carry out his first real sniper mission.

01:56Fire.

01:59What the frequency are you on? We got air. I'm calling it in.

02:03You have permission to take the shot. Tough break. You were just going to shoot one guy.

02:07Sir, just let us take this one shot right before the air comes in.

02:11Those are my orders, Marine. Hitman 45. Hitman 45. This is Bravo 4.

02:15God damn it! He's dead anyway! Just let him fucking do it!

02:19Give me the fucking handshake!

02:20Fucking fuck! Stop it! That's my kill! You fucking dust-talkie!

02:26Let go of me! Just fucking let go of me! I was- I was- I was- I was- I was- I was- I was-

02:34You stay, boys. This is what we hear from motherfuckers.
