No point in leaving the plonk (white wine). Grab four bottles each.

GSGerman Soldiers
(singing while being marched off by Pat into captivity) It's a long way to Tipperary.
GGerman officer
(just taken prisoner) Dies is schrecklich, unglaublich! Dies ist kein Kreig! (This is awful, incredible! This isn't war!)

BTBrigadier Thomas Blamey
General Pershing (Commander of the American Expeditionary Forces) has his President's authority that the US Army will act under its own commanders.
Lt. General Sir John Monash: Sure wish we had that authority in 1916.
LGLt. General Sir John Monash
(to Marty) It is rare to see my staff officers greeted with such affection.

Lt. General Sir John Monash: Well it seems they haven't forgotten you.
AAmerican Officer
OK fellas, set up by the white line.
Australian Officer: (to Marty) What part of Australia is he from?
Cpt. Martin Barrington: Some little town called Chicago, somewhere in Tasmania.
SWSgt. Wilhelm "Kaiser" Schmidt
(about the German prisoners) They say we're Australians and that we fight like animals. I'm not so sure whether that is a compliment or not.
SWSgt. Wilhelm "Kaiser" Schmidt
(seeing the Germans' obvious hunger): Wann haben sie zulezt gegessen? (When was the last time you ate?)
German soldier: Wir hatten nicht so gut Essen in zwei Woche.
Sgt. Wilhelm "Kaiser" Schmidt: They haven't had proper rations in a fortnight.
GGerman Officer
Nicht essen Sie das Fleisch. Ihr wehleidigen Feiglinge, kein Wunder dass wir den Krieg verlieren. Sie kussen ihren Eseln für eine Dose von Kuhenfleisch!
LCpl. Pat Cleary: What did he say, Kaiser?
Sgt. Wilhelm "Kaiser" Schmidt: He calls them sniveling cowards. No wonder they are losing the war. They will kiss our arses just for a can of corned beef.
CFCpt. Flanagan
(to the German officer) Your war is over, pal.
German Officer: Nein, wir kommen wieder. Sie werden schon von uns hören. Aber zuerst kümmern wir uns um die Kriegsgewinnler und Bolschewiki zu Hause, wer Deutschland in den Dolch gestochen haben.
Cpt. Flanagan: What did he say?
Sgt. Wilhelm "Kaiser" Schmidt: He says that they will be back and that we will soon hear from them. But first they will take care of the war profiteers and Bolsheviks at home who have stabbed Germany in the back.
Cpt. Flanagan: Ask him he will accept a tin of bully (beef) from me?
German officer: (without waiting for Kaiser to translate) Ja!
He then salutes Flanagan who returns it.
