—“We’re all scared. You hid in that ditch because you think there’s still hope. But Blithe, the only hope you have is to accept the fact that you’re already dead. And the sooner you accept that, the sooner you’ll be able to function as a soldier’s supposed to function: without mercy, without compassion, without remorse. All war depends upon it.”

JONES: Permission to speak sir.
WINTERS: Go on lieutenant.
JONES: It looks like Sergeant Malarkey could use a break sir, I’ve discussed it with him and he said that he did not mind if I took his place in the patrol.
WINTERS: That was nice of him.

WINTERS: He’s got a point about Sergeant Malarkey.
SPEIRS: You have a point.

That night, I took time to thank God for seeing me through that day of days and prayed I would make it through D plus 1. And if, somehow, I managed to get home again, I promised God and myself that I would find a quiet piece of land someplace and spend the rest of my life in peace.

I like pinups. I like the 20's and 40's. I miss the way things were.
