George Luz : [reading aloud Col. Sink's announcement of the impending jump into Normandy] "Soldiers of the Regiment! Tonight is the night of nights. Today, as you read this, you are en route to the great adventure for which you have trained for over two years."
Bill Guarnere : So that's why they gave us ice cream.

Denver (Bull) Randleman : I'm going to say something.
George Luz : To who?
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Lieutenant Winters.
Richard D. Winters : What is it?
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Permission to speak, sir?
Richard D. Winters : Permission granted.
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Sir, we got nine companies, sir.
Richard D. Winters : That we do.
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Well, how come we're the only company marching every Friday night, 12 miles, full pack, in the pitch dark?
Richard D. Winters : Why do you think, Private Randleman?
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Lieutenant Sobel hates us, sir.
Richard D. Winters : Lieutenant Sobel does not hate Easy Company, Private Randleman... He just hates you.
Denver (Bull) Randleman : Thank you, sir.

George Luz : [Imitating Sobel] Corporal Toye, there will be no leaning in my company. Are those dusty jump wings? How do you expect to slay the Huns with dust on your jump wings?
Joseph D. Toye : Luz, just give me a drink.
George Luz : [Normal voice] Hell of an idea, Joe. There you go. Three miles up, three miles down.

Herbert M. Sobel : [Easy Company is standing outside, awaiting the arrival of their CO, who comes in yelling] You people are at the position of attention!
[Everyone straightens up as Sobel marches up and down the columns, looking for infractions. He stops in front of one of them]
Herbert M. Sobel : Private Perconte have you been blousing your trousers over your boots like a paratrooper?
Frank Perconte : No, sir.
Herbert M. Sobel : Then explain the creases at the bottom.
Frank Perconte : No excuse, sir.
Herbert M. Sobel : Volunteering for the Parachute Infantry is one thing Perconte, but you've got a long way to prove that you belong here. Your weekend pass is revoked.
[He walks up to another solidier]
Herbert M. Sobel : Name?
George Luz : Luz, George
Herbert M. Sobel : [He inspects Luz's rifle] Dirt in the rear side aperture, pass revoked.
[He picks out another soldier and begins picking at his arm]
Herbert M. Sobel : When did sew on these chevrons, Sgt. Lipton?
C. Carwood Lipton : Yesterday, sir.
Herbert M. Sobel : Long enough to notice this?
[He holds up a small piece of lint or thread]
Herbert M. Sobel : Revoked.
C. Carwood Lipton : Sir.
Herbert M. Sobel : [Continues walking through the columns] Name?

[He continues on to the next soldier]
Herbert M. Sobel : Name?
Cpl. Joseph Liebgott : Liebgott, Joseph D., sir.
Herbert M. Sobel : [Pulling out Liebgott's bayonet point] Rusty bayonet, Liebgott. You want to kill Germans?
Cpl. Joseph Liebgott : Yes, sir
Herbert M. Sobel : [He smacks him on the helmet with his bayonet] Not with this.
[He walks away from the troops, holding up the bayonet]
Herbert M. Sobel : I would not take this rusty piece of shit to war, and I will not take you in your condition. Now thanks to these men and their infractions, every man in the Company who had a weekend pass has lost it. Change into your PT gear, we're running Currahee.
