Basically, avoid an ambivalent mood, avoid putting comedy when the situation is serious and vice versa, don't make something funny bland and drip with conflict.
Of course, there are ways to mix and match just right. Since the boys are serious most of the time, they still react seriously to something silly. This is comedy gold. Vice versa are not exactly in-character for them, by that, I meant black comedy. They are soldiers, not joker-lite, though spouting funny one liners occasionally will be good.
There's also transition: you CAN theoretically put humorous scene before a moody, dark scene and vice versa, just don't do it OFTEN.
Show me a lighthearted draft, and I'll judge.
