List of voters for the quote

[Maj-Gen Raymond Barton, commander of the 4th Infantry Division, argues with assistant division chief Brig-Gen Theodore Roosevelt Jr. over the latter insisting on landing ashore with the division at Utah Beach] MG Raymond Barton: You're putting me on the spot. BG Teddy Roosevelt Jr: I didn't mean to, Tubby. Barton: The hell you didn't. You put that request in writing, made it official. You're the assistant division commander. Roosevelt: And that's why I'm supposed to go ashore in the first wave. That's where I'm supposed to be. You know that. Barton: You're important to this operation. We can't have you knocked off on the first day. Roosevelt: But that's not the real reason. Isn't it because my father was president of the United States? Barton: And a great president. And a great soldier. He led the charge of the Rough Riders up San Juan Hill. So now you've got to be the first man ashore on Utah Beach. Roosevelt: But that's where I'm supposed to be, Tubby. That's my job. Also, I've been there side by side with the men all through training. They're used to seeing where I belong. They have a right to expect me there. President's son or not. Is my request denied? Barton: No, you know it's not. Request reluctantly approved. Roosevelt: Thanks, Tubby. Thanks a lot.
