We've all repeated them, quoted them, and re-watched a favorite movie just to see them again... yes, we're talking about those defining military-related movie lines! In a few other threads we've discussed various military movie-related topics, so the idea here is a thread dedicated specifically to those iconic and infectious "movie lines" that seem to make their way into our daily conversations. It could be something profound, catchy, interesting/ thought provoking, or just plain entertaining or funny. It could have been from a movie that was military-related, military-themed, or something else altogether... but is somehow applicable to the military experience or life from the military perspective. The sky is the limit here, so dig deep and let's hear your best-of-the-best military-related movie lines! Now, fasten your seat-belts and let's get this thing started; thank you for all that you do, and... see you all in the discussion threads!

the fantastic final speech of one soldier from one of the greatest movies ever!
Black Hawk Down:
"Hoot": When I go home people'll ask me, "Hey Hoot, why do you do it man? What, you some kinda war junkie?" You know what I'll say? I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand that it's about the men next to you, and that's it. That's all it is.

HUNT FOR RED OCTOBER: Capt Ramius: "Let them Sing!!" Or anytime Ryan says: Next time write a memo. JONSEY: "Crazy Ivan" Capt Mancuso: My morse is so rusty I don't know if i'm sending the co-ordinates or the measurements to the sports illustrated swimsuit model of the year.

Another great one from Hunt for Red October was Ramius to Ryan: "Some things in here don't react well to bullets" when they were chasing the KGB agent in the missile bay. Classic!

Few Good Men: I eat breakfast 300 yards from 4000 men trained to kill me. Don't think you can come down here and flash a badge and make me scared. Then the line about women outranking men. I won't repeat that one.

"You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives! You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like "honor", "code", "loyalty". We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said "thank you", and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!"
