• Maj. Alan Crown : [after the Canadians finished singing a mocking version of 'Yankee Doodle']  Corporal Peacock, your stripes are not a licence to behave like an ass. There will be no more insulting or derogatory remarks about the Yanks, is that clear?

  Cpl. Wilfrid Peacock : Yes, sir.

  Cpl. Wilfrid Peacock : [addressing the Canadians]  There will be no more insulting or derogatory remarks about the Yanks.

  Pvt. Hugh MacDonald : Oh, would ordinary insults be acceptable, sir?

• Pvt. Rockwell 'Rocky' Rockman : [Looking up the side of a cliff in Italy]  "Holy cow, it's straight up!"

  Pvt. Hugh MacDonald : [Seriously]  "What's the beef? It's only a mile high."

• Pvt. Hugh MacDonald : [the soldiers are looking at William Holden as he leaves, having addressed them prior to the big battle]  "Have you never heard a man say goodbye?"
