Quote #7
WARDEN: Sir, this man was a good soldier. He loved the Army more than any soldier I ever knew. I would like to make a formal request that this body be buried in the Army's permanent cemetery at Schofield Barracks.
Here Warden comes full circle. Originally he mistook his duty for just going with the flow and following along with Captain Holmes' unjust treatment of Prewitt. But now he realizes that Prewitt himself was a dutiful soldier, since he was being true to the principles that are supposed to govern military life.
