How does he know Diestl couldn't be one?

For all the same reasons that YOU could not be. Having the intellect of a marshmallow and the physical stature of a blancmange are not assets prized too highly by our Armed Forces. If you seem hellbent on pursuing some form of military career you may both want to consider the WAAFs.
It might involve punching above your weight both mentally and physically, but it is impossible to imagine where else you two might fit in.

[Diestl]

The four elements of Commando Spirit; courage, determination, unselfishness, and cheerfulness in the face of adversity - which of those describes you?

Probably Cheerfulness .

[Churchill]

Are you claiming that you alone possess one or more of those?

I was holding up as an example, the qualities required - qualities that Diestl has already proven he doesn't posess.

Now run along little man, your mummy will have your tea on the table soon.

Are you claiming that you alone possess one or more of those?

I can see why they took you into the army - your wittering probably bored the enemy into submission.

We would probably fit in, by commanding you lower IQ nut jobs who dont understand the situation their are in. We would be in HQ smoking cigars drinking whisky, planning strategy.

Yes, but if you keep your jacket closed no-one will notice
