Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body armor?

Joker: A peace symbol, sir.

Colonel: Where’d you get it?

Joker: I don’t remember, sir.

Colonel: What is that you’ve got written on your helmet?

Joker: “Born to Kill”, sir.

Colonel: You write “born to kill” on your helmet, and you wear a peace button. What’s that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?

Joker: No, sir.

Colonel: What is it supposed to mean?

Joker: I don’t know, sir.

Colonel: You don’t know very much, do you?

Joker: No, sir.

Colonel: You better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will  make life  hard  for you!

Joker: Yes, sir.

Colonel: Now answer my question or you’ll be standing tall before the man!

Joker: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir.

Colonel: The what?

Joker: The duality of man; The Jungian thing, sir.

Colonel: Whose side are you on, son?

Joker: Our side, sir.

Colonel: Don’t you love your country?

Joker: Yes, sir.

Colonel: Then how ‘bout getting with the program? Why don’t you jump on the team and come on in for the big win?

Joker: Yes, sir.

Colonel: Son, all I’ve ever asked of my Marines is for them to obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because inside every man here there is an American trying to get out. It’s a hard-ball world, son. We’ve gotta try to keep our heads until this peace craze blows over!

Joker: Aye-aye, sir.

Pyle: Sir, four counts, sir!

Hartman: What’s the idea of looking down in the chamber?  

Pyle: Sir, that is the guarantee that the private is not giving the inspecting officer a loaded weapon, sir!
