• General Kahlenberge : You're to stay with him every minute of the day. Twenty-four hour call, do you understand?

  Corporal Hartmann : Yes, sir.

  General Kahlenberge : He may want to go out at night. Do you know anything which might interest General Tanz? Nightclubs or girls, that sort of thing.

  Corporal Hartmann : A few, sir, but, uh... I don't really know what the general's taste is, sir.

  General Kahlenberge : Let us hope that whatever it is, it is not you, Corporal.

  [Hartmann looks at him in shock] 

  General Kahlenberge : However, if it should be, remember that you're serving the fatherland.

  Corporal Hartmann : ...I'll try to remember, sir.

• General Tanz : You've been a satisfactory orderly, and companion.

  Corporal Hartmann : Thank you, sir.

  General Tanz : Except for the bath water this morning.

  Corporal Hartmann : I'm sorry, sir.
