• Sgt. Pete Karelsen : I'm getting sick and tired watching you being a stooge for Holmes.

  Sergeant Milton Warden : You won't see it much longer. I'm getting sick and tired of it myself. I'm through, Pete. Any day now. And I mean it.

  Sgt. Pete Karelsen : [laughing] 

  Sergeant Milton Warden : Listen, if Holmes let me, I'd transfer out of here tomorrow. Half a dozen companies in this regiment would grab me, and in grade, too.

  Sgt. Pete Karelsen : Oh, sure. I could be Chief of Staff, too. Only I just can't think of leaving my old buddies.

  Sergeant Milton Warden : Where're you going, Little Sir Echo?

  Sgt. Pete Karelsen : To take my shower, if the stinking First Sergeant has no objections. Where do you think? To the movies in this towel?

  Sergeant Milton Warden : Hurry up. We'll get some beer.

  Sgt. Pete Karelsen : I wouldn't drink with you if it was the last beer in the world.

  Sergeant Milton Warden : I'm buying.

  Sgt. Pete Karelsen : That's different.

• Sgt. Pete Karelsen : What do you mean "chick"? She's 45.

  Sergeant Milton Warden : She's still too young for you.
