Quotes
-
Col. Robert Laurel Smith : In summation, what you have before you is...
Sgt. Fanning : A troop transport that can't carry troops, a reconnaissance vehicle that's too conspicuous to do reconnaissance...
Lt. Colonel James Burton : And a quasi-tank that has less armor than a snow-blower, but carries enough ammo to take out half of D.C... . *This* is what we're building?
-
Sgt. Fanning : [as Burton begins typing] What are you doing now, sir?
Lt. Colonel James Burton : [smiling] Paper cuts, Fanning. Vicious paper cuts.
-
Lt. Colonel James Burton : This is not just a report, it's a deadly weapon.
Sgt. Fanning : Sir, an M-16 is a deadly weapon. A report is just a pile of paper, unless you're planning to inflict a lot of extremely vicious paper cuts.
