Full Metal Jacket (1987) Pogue Colonel: Marine, what is that button on your body armor

Private Joker: A peace symbol, sir

Pogue Colonel: Where’d you get it

Private Joker: I don’t remember, sir

Pogue Colonel: What is that you’ve got written on your helmet

Private Joker: “Born to Kill”, sir

Pogue Colonel: You write “Born to Kill” on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What’s that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke

Private Joker: No, sir

Pogue Colonel: You’d better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant shit on you

Private Joker: Yes, sir

Pogue Colonel: Now answer my question or you’ll be standing tall before the man

Private Joker: I think I was trying to suggest something about the duality of man, sir

Pogue Colonel: The what

Private Joker: The duality of man.The Jungian thing, sir

Pogue Colonel: Whose side are you on, son

Private Joker: Our side, sir

Pogue Colonel: Don’t you love your country

Private Joker: Yes, sir

Pogue Colonel: Then how about getting with the program. Why don’t you jump on the team and come on in for the big win

Private Joker: Yes, sir

Pogue Colonel: Son, all I’ve ever asked of my marines is that they obey my orders as they would the word of God. We are here to help the Vietnamese, because inside every gook there is an American trying to get out.It’s a hardball world, son. We’ve gotta keep our heads until this peace craze blows over.

Private Joker: Aye-aye, sir
