The characters equal amount of screen time help convey the equal importance of each of their pieces of dialogue spoken on the war. Animal Mother stating 'Better you than me' - shows his true selfishness and how he feels towards the other soldiers. When animal mother says on 'you think we waste gooks for freedom and the war being a 'slaughter' this conveys his recklessness and only motivation in being in the war to kill others.
With him doing this over the dead bodies - whilst the scene is shot as if he and the other soldiers are looking down at the dead bodies, the camera positions us as the dead bodies. It also questions the message on the morality of war that seemed to be present as a message earlier on in the film as evidently Animal Mother's purpose within the war is to kill others.
