• Maj. Winchester : [Charles is temporarily in charge of the motor pool]  Fine job of work, Rizzo. Every valve. Every disc must be removed from the Jeep and placed on the sheet in its assigned order.

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : Major, I don't understand, why am I taking this Jeep apart? It was working just FINE!

  [Slams down gasket] 

  Maj. Winchester : On the sheet, Rizzo. On the sheet. On the sheet. Don't you understand the power you have here? You can take a Jeep apart and reduce it to an inert pile of junk and whenever you want--at a whim-- you can fit it together again and it will roar back to life. If only we could do that with human beings. They wouldn't die.

• Charles : [In a Jeep]  Start you fool! START!

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : Major, what are you doing?

  Charles : Why won't this idiotic engine turn over?

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : 'Cause, I tucked it into bed on that sheet over there like you told me.

  Charles : Well I must have transportation immediately. What's available? Do any of these work?

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : Only the ambulance...

  [Charles runs for the ambulance] 

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : But that's off limits except in a medical emergency!

  Charles : [Climbs in]  This *is* a medical emergency.

  Sgt. Luther Rizzo : Where are you going?

  Charles : Battalion Aid!
