Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
[Swoff and Fergus are disassembling and reassembling their rifles in their tent. Cortez is sitting a few bunks down, messing with his radio]
What would you say if I told you I was gonna kill you for fucking me over like that?
Fergus:
I already told you, it was an accident.
Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
An accident. Right. Like when the trigger slips. Of course, your nice little mom and dad are where?
Fergus:
Cottonwood Falls.
Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
Cottonwood Falls. They'll be sad. They won't have their little boy to send fucking cookies to. I'll say it was an accidental discharge. I might spend some time in the brig... but it'll end this fucking waiting. And I don't know what it's like to kill a man.
[loads rifle and points it at Fergus]

Fergus:
What are you doing?
Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
I'm in the firing position known as the sitting position. After the prone position, it is the platform most likely to enable a Marine to effectively kill his target. His target being a human, generally an enemy but sometimes a friend or friendly. We call this friendly fire, or friendly fucking or getting friendly fucked.
Fergus:
Come on Swoff, it was your watch! It was Christmas Eve, and I was just thinking about home. That's it.
Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
What do you think Cortez? You think I'll accidentally kill your homeboy from boot camp?
Cortez:
Sure you'll kill him. Accidents happen.
Anthony 'Swoff' Swofford:
You don't see shit right?
Cortez:
I don't see shit. This ain't even my tent. Matter of fact, I ain't even here, Swoff.
