soldiers 1 and 4 stop shooting and watch soldiers 2 and 3. Dramatic death music.
Soldier3

soldier 3 closes his eyes and passes out in the arms of soldier 2. Soldiers 1 and 4 bow their heads. a moment of silence. Soldier 3 opens his eyes and raspberries at soldier 2. Soldier 2 drops him. 1 and 4 go back to shooting.
Soldier2
