Drill Sergeant Nasty: Difference between revisions

* Major Reisman serves this role in ''[[The Dirty Dozen]]'', "encouraging" one of his "recruits" up a rope with a submachine gun.

* Subverted in the TV movie ''Tribes'', in which disgruntled Marine DI Tom Drake continually butts heads with drafted hippie Adrian, leading both men to learn about and gain respect for their "opponent".

** "This is your front!" (''smacks soldier in the stomach'') "This is your rear!" (''smacks soldier on the back'') "This is your right." (''stomps on soldier's foot'') "And this is..." (''attempts to stomp on soldier's other foot, soldier pulls it away'') "Now ye larnin', boyo."

** He is very much a "tough love" Drill Sergeant Nasty with nothing of the bully in him, and even convinces Shaw to not order him to loosen up with the (still) soft Pvt. Searles, Shaw's personal friend, whom Mulcahey had rather savagely beaten to the ground: "The boy's your friend, is he? (...) ''Let him grow up some more''."

'''Algren:''' Well done, Sergeant.

'''Gant:''' Once you know the lingo, sir, everything falls into place. }}
