Rules of Engagement Quotes

Testimony and Accountability After Three Decades

Maj. Mark Biggs: Colonel. You realize in light of Colonel Cao's testimony, we'll be pushing for charges on the Ca Lu incident.
Col. Hayes Hodges: That was 30 years ago; you're going to have a hard time finding witnesses.

Maj. Mark Biggs: Let me get this straight. You evacuate the Ambassador. You go back to the roof. Two of your Marines are K.I.A. A third, Sergeant Krasevitch, dies. You give your captain an order which he doesn't follow; in fact, he questions. And then you said what?
Col. Terry L. Childers: I don't remember.
