CU: OF HEAD AND SHOULDER OF GENERAL FLOOD, a military officer from behind the camera, so we are looking over his shoulder at the scene. As he and his non-commissioned companion, SERGEANT HAMMOND walk forward,
GEN FLOOD
"I want this done yesterday! We can expect stragglers to start arriving, and I'll be damned if they'll find us out in the open!"
SERGEANT HAMMOND, who is shorter and slight of build, says in a worried voice to the heavy set officer
SGT HAMMOND
"Sir, I still haven't been able to get through to my wife and kids .."
And GENERAL FLOOD snaps back
GEN FLOOD
"I told you that'd have to wait! We've got bigger worries than that right now."
They continue walking toward the construction site.
