and i guess that i just don't know
Всё-таки начала потихоньку перечитывать GK - впервые за все эти годы.
Gunny Wynn describes himself as a "staunch conservative" who's never smoked marijuana. With his chiseled face and Texas accent, he fits the image, yet he likes to point out, "I'm not one of those guys driving around waving Texas flags. It's just the place I'm from." He almost never barks at the men the way platoon sergeants do in movies. His conservatism boils down to a rigid adherence to his own personal code. "The most important part of my job," he tells me, "is to care about my men." His leadership philosophy is based on "building confidence in my men by respecting them." He and Fick function not so much like autocrats but like parents. At times, Gunny Wynn almost seems like a worried den mother, whose role is to soften the more aggressive messages Fick gives the men.
Though at times throughout the advance north, Colbert's vehicle goes on point for the entire battalion, placing its occupants at the very tip of the Coalition invasion, as the heat and fatigue delirium sets in, the undertaking sometimes feels like a family road trip. Colbert is the stern father figure. Person is like the mom, the communicator, trying to anticipate his needs, keeping spirits up with his cheerful banter. Garza and Trombley are the children, happily munching candy, eager to please their dad.
