Brett King: Lt. Teiss

Quotes 

• Lt. Teiss : You sure they were enemy tanks?

  Pvt. Donald Jarvess : We saw them, Lieutenant.

  Lt. Teiss : You think we got enough anti-tank grenades to do any good?

  Sgt. Kinnie : We ain't got any. Mind if I make a suggestion, Lieutenant?

  Lt. Teiss : What?

  Sgt. Kinnie : Well, sir, our usual defense against tanks is to call for artillery, and then to run like a jackrabbit.

  Lt. Teiss : We got orders to hold these positions.

  Sgt. Kinnie : Well, sir, let's call for artillery and keep our heads down, then.

  Lt. Teiss : We could send out some bazooka men... if we had any bazookas.
