• Gen. Grey : They've made mistakes before. Where've they made one this time?

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : Well, they got me mad at them.

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : I took it over the Ardennes.

  Gen. Grey : Is this a Tiger tank or isn't it?

  Col. Pritchard : So it appears. One tiger doesn't make a jungle, sir.

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : I expect tigers in jungles. But, when I discover one in a peaceful neighborhood, I recommend all of us take a good look under our beds.

• Gen. Grey : [on the phone]  Hello, Cheyenne. What's that? You're under attack? In what strength? Well, what's your guess? I can't give you air reconnaissance, I'm blind.

  [hangs up] 

  Gen. Grey : Get Apache.

• Gen. Grey : Look at that fog. If it stays, we won't find them and we won't fight. If it lifts, they'll find us. And that will be the end of our men and our tanks. And I'm praying that it lifts. What does that make me, Dan?

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : A general.
