General Billy Ford: 1918. Remember your history, Donny? The great influenza pandemic. Circled the globe in nine months. Killed 25 million people. General Donald McClintock: My father lost three brothers in that. So? General Billy Ford: What if there were men who could have stopped it, only they didn't? How do you think history would judge such men? General Donald McClintock: Oh, baloney. FDR stopped Stilwell going into Indochina. He caused the Vietnam War. What's history say about him? Truman dropped the bomb on the Japanese. Saved hundreds of thousands of American lives. Now your revisionist historians are saying he just dropped that bomb to scare the Russians. Come on, give me a break. General Billy Ford: Those men were at war, Donny. We're not. General Donald McClintock: We are at war, Billy. Everybody is at war.
