Transcript

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: Hey! Hey, get over here! Get over here! What did I say?

2ND LIEUTENANT TROY "CATSCRATCH" CARTER: Well, I...

MAJOR TODD "MANIAC" MARSHALL: No, what did I tell you to...?

2ND LIEUTENANT TROY "CATSCRATCH" CARTER: I'm really sorry, sir.

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: I just want to know how the hell you got in that predicament: it was supposed to be a milk run.

2ND LIEUTENANT TROY "CATSCRATCH" CARTER: I guess I got a little too clever, sir. I fired off a coupla missiles as decoys like Maniac was talking about, only I... I missed when it really counted, sir.

COLONEL CHRISTOPHER BLAIR: I should have known. If I ever hear you handing out advice again, I will personally put a big red bull's-eye on your back and declare it open season.
