Fires a ninety-five pound shell nearly fifteen
miles. DISMAS: My pockets empty and my rags are bare. Always, first, there has been
the dream and the men who werewilling to die for it. VOICE: Get into the gutter, you
civilian swinel Dont you knowthe sidewalk is for officers? Theres bad news now, and
theres going to be bad news for quitea while.
