General Hollanek

So while you're outside the wire with my men, you will in no way distract them, understood?

Kim Baker

Are you asking me not to sleep with your soldiers?

General Hollanek

No, not "soldiers". Marines. You're not here to sleep with or perform jobs of any type on my Marines.

General Hollanek

Jesus! You have got to be shitting me! You just shot a Javelin at a **** car! That's an $80,000 piece of ordnance! Can any of you geniuses tell me the Kelley Blue Book value of a 1989 Toyota pickup?

Kim Baker

Okay. Well, I'm covering the girls' school in Kandahar that was firebombed and I'm wondering if you could give me something, on background, just about the security situation here and the state of the war in general.

General Hollanek

Yeah, I can give you something: This war is like **** a gorilla. You keep going till the gorilla wants to stop.

Kim Baker

I think I can paraphrase that.

General Hollanek

Knock yourself out.
