- This engine's been modified by our mechanical genius here, Moriarty. Right?
- Whatever you say, babe.
- These engines are the fastest in any tanks in the European Theater of Operations, forwards or backwards. You see, man, we like to feel we can get out of trouble, quicker than we got into it.
- Got any other secret weapons?
- Well, yeah, man, you see, like, all the tanks we come up against are bigger and better than ours, so all we can hope to do is, like, scare 'em away, y'know. This gun is an ordinary 76mm but we add this piece of pipe onto it, and the Krauts think, like, maybe it's a 90mm. We got our own ammunition, it's filled with paint. When we fire it, it makes... pretty pictures. Scares the hell outta people! We have a loudspeaker here, and when we go into battle we play music, very loud. It kind of... calms us down.
- What's this here?
- It's a bridge.
- Looks like some kind of railroad bridge, huh?
- Beautiful.
- Yeah.
- Even if we make that we've still got a river to cross later on.
- Right over there.
- Let Kelly worry about that. Our problem is getting through German lines. Right?
- Right. How?
- It's a railroad bridge, ain't it?
- Yeah.
- Well, then, beautiful. We swing down onto the railroad tracks and right over the mother bridge.
- "And over the mother bridge." Sure. Suppose the bridge ain't there?
- Oh, man. Don't hit me with them negative waves so early in the morning. Think that bridge will be there and it will be there. It's a mother, beautiful bridge and it's gonna be there.
