• (Sean Penn) "Well, sir -- I've seen a lot of killing -- which it's our duty to do, because it's kill or be killed. Sometimes you hate the enemy so badly -- About two ops back -- Operation Turner -- we saw a hootch that had been burned down. Some Vietnamese were carrying kids out of a bunker. They suffered from smoke inhalation. I gave one small child mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. That just shows you we ain't all combat over here."
