Corporal Weinberg - 'Mary Ann' Asst. Crew Chief
- Radio Operator Peterson: [looking down] That's an awful big town, San Francisco.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Strictly a one whistle stop. There's only one city in the U.S.A. and that's New York.
- Sgt. Robbie White: Oh, you're just a hometown hick, Weinberg. What's wrong with California?
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: California? The sun shines and nuthin' ever happens. Before you know it, you're 60 years old.
- Sgt. Robbie White: It's no different from New York. My sister's been tryin' to get out of Brooklyn for the last 40 years.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Brooklyn? That ain't New York, chief. Once you cross that Brooklyn Bridge, you're outta this woild. The only noise you hear is the hardening of your arteries. You know when I used to drive a hack, I had a pal who crossed that bridge in 1929. Ain't ever heard from him since.
- Radio Operator Peterson: Me, I'll take Minneapolis.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Minneapolis? Why, the grass still grows in the streets. Besides, that ain't your hometown, Peterson. The hayseed's still stickin' outta your hair.
- Radio Operator Peterson: Yeah, but I can still milk a cow. I bet you can't.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: I'll get mine outta a bottle. That's the closest I ever wanna be to a cow.
- Sgt. Robbie White: You are handy with the old bull.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: [laughs]
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: [looking at map] Is this here Wake Island?
- Navigator Monk Hauser: Yeah.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: How far is it?
- Navigator Monk Hauser: Oh, it's about 2300 miles from Honolulu.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: [whistles] And we're gonna land on that dot?
- Navigator Monk Hauser: Yeah, it's not very big, is it?
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Like trying to find a buckshot in Central Park. Gee, I wish there were some traffic signs around.
- Navigator Monk Hauser: There are, but you can't see them.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: I mean like numbers and streets.
- Navigator Monk Hauser: Yeah, but they call them latitudes and longitudes.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Oh, and they're just like signs, hunh?
- Navigator Monk Hauser: Yeah, if the wind doesn't change them.
- Assistant Crew Chief Weinberg: Funny thing, I never thought there was nothin' west of Manhattan except Jersey.
