Jocko Sims: Lt. Carlton Burk

Quotes 

• Lt. Carlton Burk : As long as your friend doesn't come back from the Solace and make you, my exfil plan could work, if we separate POTUS from the guards.

  CO CDR Tom Chandler : We need to move fast, and he may need some convincing. You were wrong about his body language. He's not a hostage.

  Lt. Carlton Burk : He's with them?

  Lt. Ravit Bivas : There's layers in these groups. He may not know what the real agenda is.

  CO CDR Tom Chandler : I don't know how deep in he is, but he has drunk some of the Kool-Aid, that's for sure.

  Lt. Carlton Burk : Well, we got to do this quietly.

  CO CDR Tom Chandler : If he's here on his own will, that means he has power. If he has power, he can be manipulated.

• Lt. Carlton Burk : Sir, is that really the president?

  CO CDR Tom Chandler : Well, if everyone in the bunker's really dead, yeah, he was next in line.

  Lt. Ravit Bivas : Looks to me like he's playing a part. His body language, expression, the way the two guys are up against him. He's being held against his will.

  Lt. Carlton Burk : If they have him, and they can somehow piece the country together, get communications up, they'll control everything; the Federal Reserve, the military.

  CO CDR Tom Chandler : Well, that's not gonna happen. One way or another, we're getting our Commander in Chief out of here.
