Steele : Sergeant, what's the meaning of this?
[Thinking he's talking about the unauthorized pig picking]
"Hoot" : Just a little aerial target practice, sir. Didn't want to leave 'em behind.
Steele : I'm talking about your weapon, soldier. Now Delta or no-Delta, that's still a hot weapon. Your safety should be on at all times.
"Hoot" : This is my safety, sir.
[He holds up his index finger and bends motions as if squeezing a trigger and then walks off]
Sanderson : Let it alone, sir. He hasn't eaten in a few days.

[Captain Steele has caught Sgt. Pilla mocking him]
Steele : Quick word, Specialist.
Dominick Pilla : Sir.
[Steele puts Pilla in a headlock, while Pilla surreptitiously gives the middle finger to the other Rangers]
Steele : Tell me, Pilla. You understand why we have a chain of command, don't you?
Dominick Pilla : Roger that, sir.
Steele : 'Cause if I ever see you undermining me again, you'll be cleaning latrines with your tongue 'til you can't taste the difference between shit and french fries. Are we clear?
Dominick Pilla : Hoo-ah, sir.

Steele : Pretty funny, hoo-ah?

Steele : What the fuck are you doing out there?
Sanderson : Doing my job! We got to get to that crash site! We got to get on that street, and we got to move! And you have got to keep up, sir!
Steele : Don't you ever give me orders, Sergeant! We are combat ineffective, you understand me? We got too many wounded to move!
Sanderson : Then give me some shooters and I'll circle us to the bird.
Steele : Grimes! You're with Chalk Four?
Grimes : Yes, sir!
Steele : All right, hook up with Delta! Rejoin with Sergeant Eversmann. The rest of you, secure this position! Treat the wounded. We'll wait for the convoy! Then we'll rally at the crash site.
Sanderson : My guys, let's go!
