Generation Kill Season 1 quotes

Gentlemen, we just seized an airfield. [grins] That was pretty fucking ninja.

Sir, has any thought been given to destroying the weapons and ordnance that are sittin’ over there?

Actually, that did come up. But it seems the Battalion’s supply of C4 is now unaccounted for. The battalion supply truck we left last night, it is a smoldering heap of twisted metal and failed hopes in the trustworthiness of the Iraqis we are striving so hard to liberate.

Well, what does that mean, sir?

It means we’re on one meal a day.

I’m betting that they were thinking that they could just, you know, leave a fully loaded supply truck laying around, just like you could anywhere in America, you know. I mean, you park your unlocked car in Detroit or Baltimore, I mean, your shit’s going to be there, guaranteed, when you get back from the day spa with your skin all exfoliated and shit, right. I mean, seriously homes, why would our Iraqi brethren want four hundred pounds of C4, claymores and crates of M-16’s? I mean, it just doesn’t make any sense. Oh wait, you know they could be using all that C4 for like a giant Fourth of July celebration! [Looks up at Colbert, who is sitting on the Humvee nearby] What do you think, Brad?

I think it's time for you to shut the fuck up.

What’s this about you losin’ your Kevlar?

It bounced off my head sergeant major, last night.

Bounced off your head?

I was up on the .50 cal, the humvee went over a bump Sergeant Major.

That Kevlar wasn’t yours to lose!! That was the property of this, United States Marine Corps! Belonged to every Marine! Because of your failure to secure that helmet, you’ve jeopardized every Marine servin’ today! Was gonna consider NJP’n yo ass! Sergeant Colbert! This is what happens when you don’t enforce the groomin standard! The mens gets all lax, and other standards fall. Devil Dog here stops usin’ his chinstrap, goes over a bump, Kevlar flies off his head, and our pro-tective posture, is weakened!

Roger that, Sergeant Major.

I’m not the fucking retard that lost a whole supply truck!

LCpl. Harold James Trombley

Look, I didn’t mean to shoot innocent camels, alright? I’m sure I shot people.

That's 'cause he's a psycho. But at least he's our psycho.

Damn, sucker. I just got some. Look at me, Brad, I’m a man now, just like you. Except, I don’t look like a faggot and talk all educated.

Captain America’s gone, dog. You see that look in his eyes? Like he’s afraid if he takes a shit hajis gonna come crawling out of his ass.

Eric, what can I do for you?

Sir, it’s about the enemy AKs you’ve been firing from your vehicle. You’re endangering us. You’re not calling your targets. The AKs sound like enemy fire.

[laughing] Jesus Christ, Eric!

Respectfully, sir? You fire an AK one more time, I’ll fuck you up.

The fuck are you two retards doing? Get up on that fucking gun.

What the fuck is Captain America doing out there?

Diggin’ a hole.

What the fuck’s he digging out there for?

I have no idea, corporal.

Dirty, explain this shit to me.

It’s a combat jack. Captain feels the need to entrench in a solitary position before lettin’ one fly.

Find the reporter, Trombley. If Little Miss Rolling Stone gets run over by an Iraqi tank, Ray's band won't make the cover.

Cpl. Walt Hasser

Hey, where’s Brad?

Jesus fucking Christ, Walt. Are you serious? My first combat jack!

Cpl. Walt Hasser

Fuck your jack, we’re being overrun by armor!

He’s in his grave.

Assassin, this is Assassin two actual. Over.

This is Assassin actual, send it.

Hey, uh, we have found some indication of Iraqi armor operating in the area, but uh, evidence on which to base a BDA is inconclusive so far. Over.

Interrogative, by inconclusive do you mean to say that you have found no destroyed Iraqi armor?

This is Assassin two actual, at this time not specifically, over.

Interrogative, have you found any non-specific destroyed Iraqi armor?

Negative, over.

Assassin 2, have you found any destroyed targets, military or civilian, over.

Negative, we turned a lot of dirt. Over.

Eleven thousand pounds of ordinance dropped and we didn’t hit any armor. We didn’t destroy any villages though either. Guess that sort of goes in the win column, right?

Aw no, Christ lover at my nine.

Coming this way?

Yeah, ETA's like 10 seconds.

Like I gotta deal with this too...

Men. I'm holding a service, and I wonder if you would take comfort in pausing for a word of prayer.

Oh, no thank you Lieutenant Commander. We got the warning order, so it looks like we're going to be moving out to kill a lot more of these Godless heathens for you. But don't worry, we will not rest until the Iraqi threat to your way of worship has been completely neutralized.

I'm aware of the warning order, and it's for that reason that we're congregating right now for a brief service of...

The other thing is, is that my team leader here, Sgt. Colbert? Yeah, he was born a Hebrew, and remains a practicing Christ killer. So it's purely out of respect for him, I feel as though I'm going to have to forego your festive rituals.
