- R. Lee Ermey: You know, Napoleon once said that an army marches on its stomach. In other words, if combat soldiers are not fed or are not fed well, they won't have the energy to win battles. Edit
- R. Lee Ermey: They say what separates the men from the boys is the size of their toys. Well, if that's true, the Grizzlies at March Air Force Base (where the KC-135 Stratotankers are based) are as big as men can get. Edit
- R. Lee Ermey: Suck in your gut! It's time for Mail Call! Edit
