Chuck McCann: Leatherneck

Quotes 

• Leatherneck : [to Buck McCann before the Cobra cadets hunt the Joe in a forest]  You better pack for a long stay in intensive care because when I'm done with your cub scouts - I'm coming after you!

• Buck McCann : Gee, Sarge, did we wake you? I'm sorry.

  Leatherneck : Not as sorry as you'll be when I rearrange your face!

  Buck McCann : Nice to see you haven't lost your sense of humor. You know, it reminds me of a funny story. It's about this jerk of a Marine who always said he'd die before letting anyone tarnish his Corps' good name. He was especially sentimental about Parris Island boot camp, where he became a man and a Marine. You can imagine how that kind of a man would feel if Parris Island was overrun by enemy troops and then destroyed by massive explosions. Hilarious, huh, Sarge?

  Leatherneck : Why, you slimy creep!

  Buck McCann : Save your strength. You'll need it, 'cause we have a date! You, me, Cobra, and some fireworks Parris Island will never forget!

  [laughs evilly] 

• Sheila McDermott : [after Leatherneck saves her from drowning in the rapids]  Fool! If our positions were reversed, I'd have let you drown!

  Leatherneck : You're welcome.

• Leatherneck : [to a beaten Buck McCann]  You made one mistake, Bucko. I may be older, but I'm better.

• Leatherneck : You're a traitor and a sleazebag and the worst Marine I ever met!

  Buck McCann : And you're gonna be the sorriest Marine I ever met!

• Sheila McDermott : Buck, you can't let him beat you! Fight back! Come on!

  Leatherneck : He was always full of hot air. No real backbone or character.

  Sheila McDermott : That's a lie!

  [slaps Leatherneck] 

  Roadblock : Hey, easy, girl!

  [drags Sheila away, kicking and screaming] 

  Sheila McDermott : Cobra is strong! Cobra will be victorious! You'll see! You'll see!

• [last lines] 

  Beach Head : Some of 'em never learn.

  Leatherneck : Nope, some of 'em never do. It's the ones that we can help that get us out of bed in the morning.

  [Mike P. Randall rips off his Cobra Elite Corps patch on his shoulder and grinds it into the ground before Wet-Suit leads him away] 

  Leatherneck : All right!

• Wet Suit : Hey, jarhead, need help countin' those weapons technicians? There's more than twenty of 'em. You can't use your fingers and your toes.

  Leatherneck : Maybe I'll count 'em with your teeth, fish brain!
