The Lieutenant1963

Lt. Col. Raleigh Wade:
Well, as long as Rice is here, you can keep him if you wish.

Lt. William 'Bill' Rice:
I feel responsible for this thing becoming so serious, sir. It I could just stay here on loan for a while...

Captain Ray Rambridge:
Rice, will you make up your mind? This morning your whole career was going down the drain because you didn't have a platoon.

Lt. Col. Raleigh Wade:
If you're worried about the men blaming you for this, you're probably right. If you feel you can't handle a platoon under these circumstances...

Lt. William 'Bill' Rice:
That's not it, sir. The job just wouldn't give me time to...

Captain Ray Rambridge:
Personnel can list Lieutenant Rice commanding 3rd platoon, Bravo Company, sir, as of right now.

Lt. Col. Raleigh Wade:
Good luck. You'll probably need it.
