• Colonel Lucas : Your mission is to proceed up the Nung River in a Navy patrol boat. Pick up Colonel Kurtz's path at Nu Mung Ba, follow it and learn what you can along the way. When you find the Colonel, infiltrate his team by whatever means available and terminate the Colonel's command.

  Willard : Terminate the Colonel?

  General Corman : He's out there operating without any decent restraint, totally beyond the pale of any acceptable human conduct. And he is still in the field commanding troops.

  Civilian : Terminate with extreme prejudice.

  Colonel Lucas : You understand, Captain, that this mission does not exist, nor will it ever exist.

• Colonel Lucas : Your report specifies intelligence/counterintelligence with ComSec I-Corps.

  Willard : I'm not presently disposed to discuss these operations, sir.

  Colonel Lucas : Did you not work for the CIA in I-Corps?

  Willard : No, sir.

  Colonel Lucas : Did you not assassinate a government tax collector in Quang Tri province, June 19th, 1968? Captain?

  Willard : Sir, I am unaware of any such activity or operation... nor would I be disposed to discuss such an operation if it did in fact exist, sir.
