Hail the Conquering Hero1944

Mayor Everett D. Noble:
This problem is not local, it's national. In a few years, if the war goes on - heaven forbid - you won't be able to swing a cat without knocking down a couple of heroes. Now... are we going to be governed by young men - very young men - however well-meaning or patriotic they may be - whose principal talent consists of hopping in and out of wolfholes...

Political Boss:
Foxholes.

Mayor Everett D. Noble:
Huh?

Political Boss:
They're called foxholes.

Mayor Everett D. Noble:
...talent consists of hopping in and out of foxholes and killing hundreds of enemies with one swoop of the sword. Or... are we going to be governed by respectable civic leaders of mature age who do not seek the appointment, but accept it as a civic duty. I refer to men like... uh, well... myself.
