• Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : The German soldier facing us is still an undefeated enemy. He can still fight. His leaders know that. As long as he can fight, they'll attack.

  Col. Pritchard : I have 10 other officers in my section. We see the same information, get the same facts as you, Kiley. All of us come up with one answer, you come up with the complete opposite. When 10 men tell you you're drunk, you'd better lie down!

• Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : Look what showed up on this one.

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : I took it over the Ardennes.

  Gen. Grey : Is this a Tiger tank or isn't it?

  Col. Pritchard : So it appears. One tiger doesn't make a jungle, sir.

  Lt. Col. Daniel Kiley : I expect tigers in jungles. But, when I discover one in a peaceful neighborhood, I recommend all of us take a good look under our beds.

• Col. Pritchard : Kiley, you're crazy. Facts mean nothing to you. Evidence means nothing. The only thing you can see are your own cockeyed hunches. Well, that doesn't work in the Army. I'm recommending you for transfer to a desk in Washington. You can tell the President how to run the war.

• Col. Pritchard : [to Kiley]  It's very difficult for me to say this. I was wrong.
