Hoot
- "Hoot": When I go home people'll ask me, "Hey Hoot, why do you do it man? What, you some kinda war junkie?" You know what I'll say? I won't say a goddamn word. Why? They won't understand. They won't understand why we do it. They won't understand that it's about the men next to you, and that's it. That's all it is.
- "Hoot": Y'know what I think? Don't really matter what I think. Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window.
- "Hoot": Once that first bullet goes past your head, politics and all that shit just goes right out the window.
- Steele: Sergeant, what's the meaning of this?
- [Thinking he's talking about the unauthorized pig picking]
- "Hoot": Just a little aerial target practice, sir. Didn't want to leave 'em behind.
- Steele: I'm talking about your weapon, soldier. Now Delta or no-Delta, that's still a hot weapon. Your safety should be on at all times.
- "Hoot": This is my safety, sir.
- [He holds up his index finger and bends motions as if squeezing a trigger and then walks off]
- Sanderson: Let it alone, sir. He hasn't eaten in a few days.
- "Hoot": See you're thinking. Don't. 'Cause Sergeant, you can't control who gets hit or who doesn't or who falls out of a chopper or why. It ain't up to you. It's just war.
- "Hoot": Sergeant, you got your men this far. You did it right today. Now you gotta start thinking about getting them out of here.
- McKnight: [over the radio] How are things going? Things okay there, Struecker?
- Struecker: I don't wanna talk about it now, Colonel. I'm busy!
- [Pilla is shot and falls into the humvee]
- Thomas: Sergeant Pilla's hit! Christ, he's fucked up!
- McKnight: Is anybody hit? Struecker, talk to me!
- Struecker: It's Sergeant Pilla!
- McKnight: What's his status? What's his status?
- "Hoot": He's dead!
- Struecker: He's dead. Pilla's dead, sir.
- McKnight: C2, this is McKnight, we have a KIA: Dominick Pilla, over.
- Harell: Roger that.
- Struecker: Get on that fifty! Someone get on that fifty!
- "Hoot": It's mine!
