Page 5 of 8[To Dylan, looking at the exploding alien ship]

Everyone in the world is trying to get out of Washington, and we're the only schmucks trying to get in.
Get on the wire and inform the squadron around the world. Tell them how to bring those sons of bitches down!
Good morning. [Turns on mic] Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world, and you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind. That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom… Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution… but from annihilation. We're fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice: We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!
He DID IT! THE SON OF A BITCH DID IT!
Hello, boys! I'M BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!!
Hold on Command! I want another shot at it! Eagle 1 FOX 3!
