War movie quiz

This is a continuation of the old pop-quiz thingy we had running in the early DFA days. Someone, anyone, says a quote from a war movie, then a point is given to the first person who says the title of the movie, and an additional point is awarded to the first person who says which character who said the quote.

Scoreboard:
Abahab (8)
Moliat (2)
Falls (1)
riafomh (5)

I'll start with one: "First of the Ninth was an old cavalry division that had cashed in its horses for Hueys and gone tear-assing around 'Nam looking for the shit."

Apocalypse Now, I think it was Martin Sheen's character, I don't remember his name. I'll have to brush up on my war movies.

Both correct, I knew you or Max would jump straight on it :P I'm watching the movie right now and then I'll be flying Hueys myself in an hour

"It's just a flare! Un-ass that shit, get it outta here!"

Who said this?:

"We just lost the initiative"....

How about (easy one):

"Why do you guys sit on your helmets?"

"Sir, Custer was a pussy. You ain't."

- The movie is "We Were Soldiers"

- The character is Sgt. Major Basil Plumley

- The actor is Sam Elliot

He says this to Mel Gibson's character (Lt. Col Hal Moore) in response to his reference to Custer and their situation.

2 points to Moliat....

(Actually, this one I don't know so well, so can't confirm if it's Chef who says it, so I'll defer to other experts...)

Apocalypse Now?

Chalk up a point for Ria!

Here's a new one:

"You're Greek aren't you Captain? Did you ever read Homer? We read homer at the point....in Greek."

Hey, don't I get an extra point for naming the character? (As per Moliat above)

Your Greek Captain Quote (say that fast 3 times) is from "Thin Red Line"?

I wanted to see exotic Vietnam... the crown jewel of Southeast Asia. I wanted to meet interesting and stimulating people of an ancient culture... and kill them. I wanted to be the first kid on my block to get a confirmed kill!

Full Metal Jacket?

(Trick Question):

"Let's just kill 'em to little tiny pieces!"

It's from Bad Company? And that's a yes to Full Metal Jacket, Joker being interviewed by the reporter.

"I'm gonna get that skid bitch. Get over there, Johnny. Roll that right skid right up her ass."

Moliat wrote:"I'm gonna get that skid bitch. Get over there, Johnny. Roll that right skid right up her ass."

I'll just make a blind guess of Apocalypse now, no idea who said it.
