• [Vinson's cavalry patrol hurriedly buries a dead trooper] 

  Sgt. Vinson : Collins, that's deep enough. Roll him in and cover him up. Let's move!

  Pvt. Collins : You mean without reading the Good Book?

  Sgt. Vinson : If he needs our help to make it upstairs, he's in worse shape than he looks.

• Sgt. Vinson : I need a six-foot hole dug. Any volunteers?

  Pvt. McGurney : Don't look at me, Sergeant. I'm too overcome with grief.

  Pvt. Pendelton : Well, I certainly can't do that!

  Pvt. Collins : All right, I'll be the goat. Half the tobacco?

  Pvt. McGurney : Collins, three feet will be plenty. He was only half a man.
