JAG quotes

Chief, if I bagged a Klingon I believe you would know what flag to paint on her.

CPO Ned Bannon

Klingons are easy, sir. Now a Romulan warship, that might be a problem. They're invisible.

You have whoever sent that message to CNIC-Med on my quarterdeck by sunset, Mr. Rubin, or you'll spend the rest of your tour sending semaphore to Eskimos.

LT Kate Pike

I am 27 years old, a Harvard law school graduate, and a lieutenant in the same navy as you. Don't treat me as anything less!

LT Kate Pike

Those wings look good on you.

Well, you know what they say about gold wings and dress whites. They'll get you in bed anywhere.

LT Kate Pike

Except here.

You don't like female pilots, do you, son?

No sir, I do not.

Neither do I. Don't believe they have the stomach for battle.

You got that right, CAG.

But if one of my LSOs ever intentionally waved a pilot off because she was a female, I'd keelhaul him.

We will be flying a Tomcat that has been modified for re-con and training missions. There's a complete set of controls in your cockpit. But if you touch anything other than your personal joystick, I will eject you over the Adriatic and forget where I did it.

LT Kate Pike

(about the CAG) What gives him the right to decide who belongs up there and who doesn't?

Twenty-five years and a thousand traps.

LT Kate Pike

You're FLYING?!?

You really know how to build a guy's confidence, Kate.

CPO Ned Bannon

He's breathing.

That makes one of us.

Before this gets embarrassing for both of us, you don't have to thank me.

Thank you for what? You're a naval aviator, I damn well expected you to get us back.

Kate sends her regrets.

You know Kate?

Well enough for her to warn me, sir.

About what?

That's privileged information, Lieutenant.

I can decipher computer codes in as little as 30 seconds, sir.

And as long as?

Three days, but that was in Chinese.

I thought nuclear subs were big.

Those are the Boomers and missile boats. We're in a tag boat; small, compact.

(bumps head) And deadly to anyone over 5'2"

What'd you fly, Lieutenant?

Tomcats

Tomcats to JAG?

I had a problem when they wouldn't give me another one.

We're not at the rendezvous?

No, sir. You do not pass 'Go', you do not collect $40 million. You go straight to jail.
