Diamond describes the guard duty that he has just come off. He then outlines to Estelle the rest of the day's schedule - a film on the movements of the rifle squad and platoon in battle, a drill, and an interview with the captain for the officers' candidate school. Diamond informs Estelle that he must still be successful in a more intensive interview with a screening board and then pass a physical examination in order to be accepted to the elite program.
