• Sgt. Burton 'Pat' Christenson : The stories about Speirs are probably all bullshit anyway.

  Ken Webb : Stories? What stories?

  Frank Perconte : Well, supposedly, Speirs shot one of his own men for being drunk.

  Ken Webb : You're kidding. That's unbelievable.

  Sgt. Burton 'Pat' Christenson : Yeah, and there's another one about him giving cigarettes to twenty German POW's before killing 'em.

  Ken Webb : He shot twenty POW's?

  Frank Perconte : Well, actually, I heard it was more like thirty.

  Ronald Spiers : [Speirs arrives]  Christenson.

  Sgt. Burton 'Pat' Christenson : Lieutenant Speirs.

  Ronald Spiers : I got the name right, didn't I? Christenson?

  Sgt. Burton 'Pat' Christenson : Yes, sir.

  Ronald Spiers : What are you men doing out here?

  Sgt. Burton 'Pat' Christenson : We're watching the line, sir.

  Ronald Spiers : Well, keep up the good work. While you're at it, you might want to reinforce your cover.

  Frank Perconte : Oh... well actually, sir, Lieutenant Dike said not even to bother, that we're only gonna be here one day.

  Ronald Spiers : Lieutenant Dike said that, huh? Then forget what I said. Carry on.

  [starting to walk away. Then turns around] 

  Ronald Spiers : Oh, anyone care for a smoke?

  [Christenson and Perconte look at him silently] 

  Ronald Spiers : [to Webb]  You?

  [Webb shakes his head vigorously]
