Lt. Col. Ben R. Gately:
If that's all, sir...

Brig. Gen. Frank Savage:
I'm just getting started. You're gonna stay right here and get a bellyful of flying. You're gonna make every mission.
You're not air exec anymore. You're just an airplane commander. And I want you to paint this name on the nose of your ship: Leper Colony. Because in it you're gonna get every deadbeat in the outfit.
Every man with a penchant for head colds. If there's a bombardier who can't hit his plate with his fork, you get him. If there's a navigator who can't find the men's room, you get him. Because you rate him.
