Alice’s Marines training covered a range of interrogation scenarios. There was a point where the pain of torture overcame any training, so the aim was to prevent it from happening in the first place. There were two approaches—agree or disagree with the interrogator. First was to try to help from the start, stupidity replacing honesty: Me? Oh no, sir, I didn’t mean to, this is all a terrible mistake. The other was to chew the scenery and fight back: Get the hell away from me unless you want to end up hospital.
