Gunner Paige Tico (Veronica Ngo) who successfully argeted the vessel with a cluster of bombs at the last possible moment, perished along with all the other bombardier crews (and he entire bomb squadron).I wish you were a wise, kind friend, instead of a gossiping acquaintance I""ve known casually for years and never particularly cared for.He was to be trained as a skilled gladiator in his training school (ludus) at Capua.When they arrived, the "dirty-looking lot" of slave-trainees were assembled to listen to Batiatus:Here, you will be trained by experts to fight in pairs to the death.One of the film""s taglines described his second escape:"Six sticks of dynamite that blasted his way to freedom.The ""clams"" that are hauled up in a net are revealed to be more dancing-girls wrapped in seaweed - they sprawl prostrate on the barge""s deck, crawl to Antony""s feet and offer him jewel-filled seashells:Antony: Jewels!
