Webster: Sergeant Lipton feeling all right?
Luz: He's got pneumonia.
Webster: Sorry to hear that.
Luz: Ah, what are you sorry about? He's alive, got a couch, a god damn blanket. Snug as a bug (edit) Webster: (narrating) I wondered if anyone would realize what it cost the soldiers to win this war. Back home, in America, things were already beginning to look like peacetime. The standard of living was on the rise, hotels and nightclubs were booming, you couldn't get a hotel room in Miami Beach, it was so crowded. How could anyone know the price paid by the soldiers in terror, agony, and bloodshed, if they'd never been to places like Normandy, Bastogne or Hagenau? (edit) Winters: Had to be a full moon. So much for cover of darkness. (edit) Nixon: Oh, before I forget, Colonel Sink's a little unhappy with the appearance of your uniform. Says it's not befitting your rank.
(Nixon tosses a box to Winters and he opens it)
Winters: Oak leaves.
(Nixon salutes him)
Nixon: Congratulations, Major. (edit) Webster: (narrating) Eugene Jackson was 20 years old. He lied about his age when he joined the Army at 16. His family, I'm sure, got a telegram saying he died a hero on a mission that would help win the war. In reality, he died on a stretcher in a dank basement in Hagenau, crying out in agony as his friends looked on helplessly. Just another casualty in a war that was supposed to be all but over. (edit)

Goof: Don Malarkey has the stripes of a staff sergeant in the morning, but wears the stripes of a sergeant first class as the men prepare for the patrol.
(edit)
Goof: As Lt. Jones arrives in Hagenau he carries a carbine. At the debriefing after the patrol he has a Thompson. He carries no ammo for it, but a belt with carbine ammo. When he leaves Easy he has the carbine again.
