Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.
Had to add another post today. I watched Heartbreak Ridge (1986), and could not resist sharing some of the quotes from this movie. It's been one of my favorite military movies for a long time. There's absolutely nothing better than Clint Eastwood growling smart ass remarks for 2 hours! If you've seen Full Metal Jacket (1987) or Biloxi Blues (1988), I highly recommend Heartbreak Ridge. Who Rah!
Here are some of the best lines Clint had as Gunnery Sergeant Highway:
"With all due respect, sir, you're beginning to bore the hell out of me."
"I've drank more beer, pissed more blood, and banged more quiff than all you numb-nuts put together."
Col. Meyers: What's your assessment of this situation, Gunny?
"It's a cluster fuck, sir. Marines shouldn't be sitting on their sorry asses filling out requisitions for equipment they should already have."
"Be advised, I'm mean, nasty and tired. I eat concertina wire and piss napalm and I could shoot a round through a flea's ass at 300 yards. So why don't you hump somebody else's leg mutt-face before I push yours in."
"This doesn't mean we'll be swappin' spit in the shower."
"Sergeant, get that contraband stogie out of my face before I shove it so far up your ass that you'll have to stick a match up your nose to light it!"
"You're dead marine, you just got your legs blown off and we'll hafta send out a search party for your testicles. Where's your cover? They indicate over to Profile who waves to them What the hell are ya doin' back there? Without any cover fire I'll get my ass shot off! While the rest of you are pumpin' the neighbors dog we'll get every swinging dick in this platoon killed!"
"Why don't I bend you over the table there... send you home with the "I just pumped the neighbor's cat" look on your face."
"And if I was a half as ugly as you, Sergeant Major, I'd be a poster boy for a prophylactic."
