Quotes
-
Marge : How come you've got an army gun?
Joe White : I took it with me when I quit.
Marge : You quit? Quit the army? Why didn't you let them fire you? Then you'd get severance pay.
Joe White : Fire me? Yeah, they'd fire me all right. You know how they'd fire me? They'd kick me out with a medical discharge as psycho! Psychotic, they'd call me. Too... too unstable, you know, not normal enough to be a real hero in a uniform. So sooner or later they'd kick me out with a slip of paper tellin' the whole world I'm not good enough for the army!

Dan Mathews : It's all over, kid. Chopper's comin' back for us.
Joe White : Hey, you don't... you don't need that gun, I'm not gonna run away.
[the chopper lands]
Joe White : Oh, and tell Marge, tell her I'm all through running away.
Dan Mathews : Yeah, I know. And I'm gonna make sure of it.
